The Main Building - Marion, Norman and Storrington wings

The home is divided into two main areas: The Main Building and Weir House.

The Main Building with its very attractive front and rear garden, comprises West Lodge, a Grade 2 Listed Building, built in the 18th century linked to buildings purpose-built in 1963 and 1965. At present it has 52 single rooms and 1 two-bed shared rooms and is divided into 5 "wings" with between 11 and 16 residents accommodated in each wing.

The spacious Conservatory, overlooking the front gardens, together with the adjacent day room and ‘The Bistro’ dining room is the focal point of the daily activities programme, although full use is made of the gardens whenever the weather permits. As well as the this ground floor area there are further lounge areas on the first floor in the Norman Wing overlooking the front gardens and in the Johanna Wing, with a particularly fine view of the River Thames, while the second floor Storrington Lounge also has a lovely outlook over the front gardens to the river.

The bedrooms are tastefully decorated and fully furnished. However, residents are most welcome to have as many personal possessions as space will allow and to replace provided furnishings with their own to create a "home from home". With the exception of two single rooms in the Johanna Wing all residents' areas of the Homes are totally accessible for wheelchair users.

Weir House

Weir House is an elegant Victorian mansion set in its own large and attractive garden and has over the last few years been substantially redeveloped and has 14 single rooms and 1 double room.

Although modernised for the needs of being a nursing home, the character of the building has been retained. This is exemplified by "The Drawing Room", a spacious day room, complete with Bechstein grand piano and other original features such as the staircase, originally imported from Italy, ornate ceilings and marble fireplaces.
