Every bedroom at our home is a sunny, pleasant retreat – nicely decorated and complete with free-standing wardrobes. The views vary depending on location, residents have plenty of privacy.
We’re firm believers that personal touches make all the difference, which is why we actively encourage residents to bring along their favourite furniture pieces, treasured ornaments and meaningful pictures.
All rooms feature a reliable call bell system. All rooms also have a telephone point, lockable bedside cabinet, Wi-Fi, easy switch lighting and a Free-viewTV aerial point and SKY box connection.
There’s nothing quite like knowing your loved one is enjoying home-cooked meals, is there? Our brilliant on-site chefs prepare a delightful range of dishes every day, using only the freshest ingredients.
If your family member has particular dietary needs or simply prefers certain foods, just say the word – our chefs are dab hands at catering to individual preferences.
Every mealtime is a proper social affair here. We also love hosting themed lunches now and then, celebrating everything from international cuisines to quintessentially British traditions – families often tell us how much their relatives look forward to these special events!
Farnham town centre is a 10 minute walk along the river towpath, for more active residents. But there’s an accessible bus route or a willing band of volunteers to help with individual transport needs.
Farnham’s well-connected to London and the surrounding area by train. And there’s plenty of parking, if you’re coming to visit by car.
Wey Valley House has a strong relationship with the local doctor’s surgery and welcomes GP or family doctor visits, if they’re willing to keep them on. Day-to-day medications are managed by staff.
We have an on-site salon so residents can maintain their beauty standards with chiropody or hairdressing appointments, at a small additional cost.

My mother has received outstanding care, kindness and respect throughout her whole stay at the care home. The staff are highly competent, committed and caring and are led by a manager that really values the residents.
Thirty years ago I did the tea trolley here and always said if I go in a home when I am old, this is where I wanted to come. Soon after my ninety-fifth birthday I moved in and can honestly say I have never regretted it for one moment.
Just a lovely place with a great atmosphere where everyone is treated with respect, compassion and love. For my dad, he couldn't be better served and cared for. For myself and family, there is peace of mind knowing my dad is in safe hands. I love to visit and am treated with a warm welcome always and feel the staff act like friends. Just seems like a wonderful atmosphere for them all to work in, which is positive on all levels.
