An absolute gem of a find, this property should be much better known. Sadly, they have not been able to re-open the house post-covid; a real shame as, from the outside it looks to be a beautiful Arts and Crafts building. However, the gardens are stunning. There is a series of "rooms", spread over four acres and becoming less formal the further away from the house you go. The scent garden and the orchard were the highlights for me, but it was all beautiful. Surprisingly quiet, considering it's just off the main road. As always with NT properties, the volunteers were friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Well worth a visit.

Beautiful garden, path easy to follow and to walk on. Suitable for people with mobility problems. Nice terrace to sit at whilst eating and drinking items from the tea room which sells light bites, hot and cold drinks. The lady at reception was very welcoming and knowledgeable about the Terry family who were the only family to live in the house which was built in the 1920’s and was given to the National Trust on the deaths of Mr & Mrs Terry as their offspring did not want to take on the responsibility of this beautiful house. The gentleman at the gate house was a bit stern and not very welcoming. Unfortunately there is only one toilet for everyone. For some reason there were day glow orange construction fence barriers closing off steps and other odd places, stood out like sore thumbs and took away some lovely photo opportunities. I would have thought the National Trust would have found a more ‘in keeping’ way to block things off. Definitely worth a visit. Too small for a full day, would say give it 2-3 hours.

A lovely National Trust property a stone throw from York city centre - but you won't realise it. Its gardens are a beautiful, peaceful haven full of paths to explore and lovely views of York race course

The house is not open due to pandamic, but the garden is beautiful. Only disable car park on site, but there are nearby off road parking for free. Very friendly staff.

Love this place. The gardens are lovely. For a small place there's lots of character & when the house is open it's interesting to read the history of the family

Little oasis of calm, gardens beginning to 'wake up', wheelchair paths round garden. Previously I've had tasty afternoon tea in tea room(check opening times). Lots of different areas of interest in a smallish space, good parking, welcome from friendly helpers.

Lovely friendly staff (and/or volunteers?), beautiful well kept gardens with a variety of different sections. Very peaceful. Admittance is £6 but if this is your sort of thing then I'd say it's worth it! Shame the inside of the house isn't open for viewing atm but the gardens are great on their own

Beautiful garden with views across to York Racecourse. Good picnic areas and lots of different areas to explore. Very friendly and welcoming staff and volunteers.
