Absolutely Fabulous! Seriously, while this may seem like a museum, this is a house for the Duke of Marlborough! Meaning that someone actually lives here!! I was unable to tour the house inside, but my mother, 15 years prior to my visit, was able to get a peak and said that it was AMAZING. The palace exhibits a mass amount of history.
While I was there, I was able to tour the grounds, and for some unknown reason, there were people dress in period costumes and an all-black carriage with black horses. I am unsure if this is a regular occurrence or there was a special event, but it was cool to feel like I stepped right into a time warp.
