Blenheim, the most important, most visited and most famous of all the stately homes in Britain, has been home to the Churchill family for over 300 years.

Considered the largest castle and the finest example of Baroque architecture in Britain, Blenheim is a treasure trove of English heritage, owned by the Churchill family for over three centuries.

Designed by John Vanbrugh and Nicholas Hawksmoor (a protégé of Christopher Wren) in the early 1700s, with stonework, furniture and tapestries by the finest talents of the time, and artworks and statues by renowned artists such as John Singer Sargent and Joshua Reynolds, Blenheim is filled with artistic commissions that open a window on English history.

In this book, Lady Henrietta Spencer-Churchill takes readers on a tour of Blenheim through the state rooms, private flats, staff quarters and gardens.
