Dating in Woodstock
In shortWoodstock is a pretty stone town north of Oxford and the gateway to Blenheim Palace. It is small and easy to walk round. A day here works well as a second or third date.
A first date idea
Blenheim's gardens and parkland
The gardens and parkland are open daily from 10am to 3.45pm, and free Wellbeing Walks run all year for anyone with a ticket. From 13 November to 3 January the palace has its Christmas season, so check prices and book ahead.
