Originally founded in 1945, Birtley House Nursing Home is a family-run care home, set just outside Guildford. Nestled in the heart of the Surrey Hills, an area of outstanding natural beauty, Birtley House enjoys idyllic surroundings. The family has been providing care on the site since 1932. Birtley House stretches 48 acres of its own land. Our woodland is home to artists, craft trades, farmers' fields, an apple orchard of around 700 trees, a kitchen garden, beekeepers, and multiple species of wildlife. The grounds of Birtley House enjoy stunning scenery including lakes, beautifully flowered gardens, and much more. To this day, the Whalley family actively works within the business as hands-on directors who are amongst the key decision-makers. This active involvement ensures that Birtley House feels like 'home' to those who live there, stay for respite, or simply visit for day club. Chairman Simon Whalley is the grandson of the Nursing Home founder Dick Whalley. Simon has since extended the business to offer flats for independent living. Birtley House hosts various events such as the Surrey Sculpture Garden and, previously, the Surrey Hills Wood Fair. Simon has involvement and board level positions in various community projects and other local Surrey businesses, which helps to bring the community into the home, making it a vibrant and happy place to both live and work.
