I have been treated with care, compassion and support. The staff all around the care home have been amazing. The nurses, carers, kitchen staff, housekeepers, laundrette etc superb. I have no faults all positive. The maintenance people are excellent and all the staff are superb. If I had to live in a home for the rest of my life it would definitely be this care home.

Following a six week stay in hospital, Mum required support in a safe and secure environment, which Tilford Care and Nursing Home have provided excellently. The caring staff and having a ground floor ensuite room enabled Mum, with dementia and failing eyesight, to find her way around and become settled. The food is excellent, Mum especially enjoys the the freshly made desserts and cakes. Music and bingo is always a big hit with Mum and she enjoyed the visit from Mr. Kipling the donkey.

Overall, very happy with my mother’s care at Tilford Care & Nursing Home. My mum seems very happy and settled considering all restrictions that the pandemic threw up. The staff have been very attentive and caring and also very informative when Mum was unwell. I am generally so pleased we made the decision to place Mum at Tilford Care & Nursing Home.

Frequently asked questions
We’re in a peaceful and relaxing part of Surrey, yet only five miles from Farnham and the A31.
A good word to describe our location would be ‘leafy’. There are a couple of local beauty spots close to us. We are a 20 minute leisurely walk from Frensham Little Pond, and further away is the Great Pond (dubbed “The Beach of Surrey”), which is often used for sailing. Bourne Wood is two miles away. Both of these locations are very popular with TV and film production companies
