Goddard’s open to public tomorrow (Saturday)

On 21 July, York’s residents and visitors will have a new place to visit as Goddards on Tadcaster Road opens its doors.

The story of the Terry family and their chocolate empire will be told, with a 1930s feel and a new tearoom. http://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/goddards/

This summer the family home of Noel Terry (yes, of Terry’s Chocolate Orange fame) will be open to visitors for the first time. Goddards is tucked away on the Tadcaster Road, a stone’s throw from York city centre.

The house is a Grade I listed building in the Arts & Crafts style. It was home to the Terry family from 1928 and was purchased by us in 1984. Since then it’s been home to our regional offices, with the gardens open to visitors since 2006.
