Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Some of the locals were trying to give us directions to downtown and kept saying "turn right @ the park" and we said "what park....what's it called?".....nobody seemed to know it's name but we found it anyway and what a beautiful "park" it is! Beautifully groomed gardens, plenty of shade and a lovely fountain, which apparently is lit up @ night.....unfortunately, didn't get to see that. Worth a wander around to take in this picturesque square!

Overlooked the gardens from out hotel room... such a beautiful outlook. We were amazed .the hourly chime was like Big Ben on the houses of parliament in London.. Later that evening we noticed there was no chime... and the first we heard was 7am the next morning. Thank you Blenheim.. we got a very good nights sleep:)

A beautifully kept garden with a nice touch of history. A nice spot to come and sit, admire the flowers or enjoy the fountain.

This is a very pretty area of Blenheim town. The small square features lovely garden beds with pathways leading to the War Memorial. There are benches to sit and admire life passing by, or relax and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere.

Well maintained little park area in town centre. Some nice flowers and cute clock tower. Not a great deal else to say about it.

Visited on Friday 18th May. We stopped here to have a look at the fountain and the War Memorial Clock Tower as well as the neat gardens.

You simply must visit this attraction in Blenheim. It houses the war memorial dedicated to those lives lost at war. The surroundings gardens are beautifully kept with a central memorial fountain that actually works and at night an array of coloured lights flick through the cascading water. The residents are obviously very proud of these gardens and rightly so. It reminded me of our once lovely garden parks in England sadly mostly no more through vandalism, theft or council cutbacks! How times have changed well done Blenheim.

Beautiful gardens - well kept and colourful.
Square with unique red coloured concrete paving and seating around paths - very restful
Clock tower chimes during day which is lovely to hear
Walk up into cenotaph and read memorials.
Very old and large fountain
Worth a visit and 'sit'

Pretty gardens and lovely changing fountain. Nice to sit and relax and there's a great cafe just across the road if you want a coffee or something to nibble

This is a lovely place to walk and look at the flowers and gorgeous fountain. The senataph is situated at one end and is a great structure with the clock tower.
