THEY have been decking the halls at Blenheim Palace in Woodstock to get visitors in the mood for Christmas.

House manager Kate Ballenger has been in charge of making the stately home look festive and it took three days to complete the task.

She said the Great Hall, Saloon and Long Library have now been transformed with trees and tinsel.

Ms Ballenger added: “Outside in the Great Courtyard, 1,750 yards of fairy lights have been used for the palace’s own Christmas trees.”
