An intimate Arts and Crafts style family home and complementary gardens
Come in from the cold and enjoy the Terry family home decorated ready for Christmas. From Friday 16 November, hear family stories, try your hand at traditional games, take a fireside seat with a warming sherry or book ahead for a Christmas lunch in the Terry family dining room.
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.

If the place runs Gift Aid on Entry, we'll offer you a clear choice between the Gift Aid Admission prices and the Standard Admission prices at the admission point. It's entirely up to you which ticket you choose.
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:
