Interesting history and well organised, self guided tour. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff, would recommend taking your time as there's alot of ground to cover in order to see and appreciate everything. Also consider paying extra for the Dukes tour, the guides are excellent and its an eye opener!

A goo day out So much to see and do , so give yourself at least half a day. Don't rush it. We arrived just before nine, to walk the extensive grounds the house and formal gardens do not open until 1030. We enjoy, the lakes, the waterfall, statues and monumentactoss the grounds. As well as seeing the sheep on farmland that had recently been shorted. In the palace you get a pivotal part of our nation's history through the architecture, state rooms and families connections to the forces. My favourite part was the Winston Churchill exhibition and gaining an understanding of why this place was an important refuge for him during various phases of his life. Lastly don't miss the kitchen area to see what life was like for the servants, the photographs, recordings and household lists and bills were informative. The staff were friendly and willing to shared their knowledge with you if you asked. We did not eat there but thre are various oulets including the more formal Orangery. We bought a day pass for the houuse and gardens, which is coveted into an annual pass that enables you to return within the year.

What an absolutely amazing venue & we only had time to see some of the outdoor areas! It was great to be able to get a free carer's ticket & I'm very glad I opted to take my powerchair, as it would have been too far to walk from the blue badge parking to the kiosk to hire their mobility scooter. I fell in love with the butterfly house and could happily have stayed in there all day - it was truly mesmirising watching all the beautiful butterflies drifting around us & landing on all the plants & fruits inside. The bridge was an amazing sight to see - we just stayed on it watching several amazing Red Kites flying so low over us - they were utterly gorgeous to see so up close and being mobbed by Corvids! We'll definitely be coming back here again when we are in this area - there's still so much more we need to see x

We stopped off on a longer journey to see what the Jousting event was like. It was amazing! Such good horsemanship and crowd-pleasingly fun! The falconry display was also really good. Busy but not overcrowded so plenty of space to be able to see everything in the arena.
