Foxmead

Foxmead is a Victorian property situated four miles south of the town of

Dorking. It overlooks a church, and used to be the vicarage. The service

provides accommodation and care for up to fourteen older people who have a

past or present mental illness and/or dementia. There are ten single

occupancy bedrooms and two shared bedrooms on the ground and first floor of

the home. None of the bedrooms are en-suite, however, all have a washbasin.

Communal toilet and bathing facilities are located close to all bedrooms. The

first floor accommodation can be reached by the main staircase, which has a

chair lift fitted. There is a break in the chair lift track across the landing

between the ground and first floor. There is no shaft lift fitted and therefore the

home is not suitable for those with very limited mobility. There are two large

lounges and a dining room, which overlook the garden. The garden is large and

has wheelchair access via a ramp. There is ample parking to the front of the

property for visitors and a regular bus service operates to Dorking, which stops

outside the home.

The weekly fees range from £500 to £650.
