"Every guest who walks into the house must be treated with utmost love and courtesy: you never know when it is the Lord Himself who has come as a special guest."

Dorothy Kerin
Burrswood Founder

Introduction

At Burrswood you will find:

Today, more than 50 years after its creation, Burrswood continues to care for the whole person - body, mind and spirit - through medical expertise, skilled nursing, counselling and prayer.

This is true Christian healing: the entirely practical application of love and prayer given in a framework of knowledge and medical expertise.

At Burrswood, patients and visitors of any faith or none are made to feel welcome as guests at a beautiful country home. This same welcome applies to the steady flow of garden-lovers, church visitors and tourists who pass through Burrswood every week.

In everything it does, Burrswood's hallmark is: "healing and rest for the body, mind and spirit". In this way Burrswood continues to perpetuate the legacy of its founder, the famous 20th century minister of Christ's healing, Dorothy Kerin. Through more than four decades of good stewardship following her death in 1963, Burrswood's Trustees have undertaken a steady programme of modernisation, improvement and upgrading. Burrswood is a Registered Company and Charity, administered by The Dorothy Kerin Trust.

Burrswood is located in the village of Groombridge, adjacent to the historic spa town of Royal Tunbridge Wells, 35 miles south east of London and less than an hour by train.
