An intimate Arts and Crafts style family home and complementary gardens
One of the most anticipated weeks of the year - National chocolate week. Join in the celebrations at the former home of the Terry family with a look at life at home and at the factory.
Celebrate 250 years of Terry’s confectionery history (think Chocolate Orange) at the family's former house. In this warm Arts and Crafts building, full of memories, you can sit in the drawing-room, pour yourself a sherry and feel at home. Meander through garden 'rooms', discovering fragrant borders and hidden corners.
The house has selected rooms displayed to give glimpses into the family home and working chocolate factory. The garden includes yew-hedged garden rooms, bowling green, wilderness gardens and plants for every season; it's an oasis for surburban wildlife on the edge of York racecourse.
Note: The house is also used as regional offices for the National Trust in Yorkshire.

Most of our places run the Gift Aid on Entry scheme at their admission points. Under this scheme, if you're not a member you have the choice of two entry tickets:
If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you the Gift Aid Admission prices. But it's entirely up to you which ticket you choose. If you want the Standard Admission instead, just let us know when you come to pay.
Gift Aid Admission includes a 10 per cent or more voluntary donation. Gift Aid Admissions let us reclaim tax on the whole amount paid* — an extra 25 per cent — potentially a very significant boost to our places' funds.
An extra £1 paid under the scheme can be worth over £3 to the National Trust as shown below: Payment of the additional percentage donation is entirely voluntary, so if you prefer to pay the standard admission please advise our reception staff at the till point.
