Evidence Based Treatment for Addiction
I am looking for help and advice for Alcohol | Drugs | Gambling
For 35 years, our family-run rehab has been managed by two generations of the McCann family, who are pioneers in a ground-breaking addiction treatment programme. Our beautiful 18th Century-listed building, which includes a full detox facility, is set in 50 acres of private parklands.
Our treatments are evidence-based and we adhere to the highest clinical, therapeutic and medical standards. Rated Outstanding by Intertek ISO 9001 in 2024, we are focussed on providing the best quality addiction rehabilitation facility in the UK. Unfortunately, addiction treatment in Britain suffers from a lack of regulation, and many end up receiving poor-quality treatment from providers who are ill-equipped to deal with the complexities of addiction.
Castle Craig is inspected regularly by Healthcare Improvement Scotland and our management systems and operations throughout the whole hospital are audited annually by Intertek ISO 9001 who recently awarded Castle Craig ‘Outstanding’ in all areas.

Personalised Addiction Treatment
Everybody that comes through our doors receives a personalised programme according to their needs. Addiction affects everyone differently, for this reason, Castle Craig has a strong multidisciplinary team capable of helping patients of all backgrounds.
The journey begins with a thorough assessment with an Admissions Case Manager over the phone or face-to-face on Zoom. During this assessment we ask you a series of questions so that we can best understand your situation, what substances you are addicted to, any other mental health issues, any physical health issues and answer any questions you have. This information is then relayed to our Consultant Psychiatrist or one of our Specialty Doctors for a further assessment before an admission date is set.

Castle Craig Programme & Model
Addiction is a chronic and progressive disease and the individual is unable to control their level of consumption, no matter how much they believe they might be able to.
We firmly believe that a life of abstinence is the only way forward, we not only provide detoxification but we understand that patients need intensive therapy to target all areas of their life in order to achieve ongoing abstinence and a fulfilling life after they leave rehab.
Detoxification
Detoxing from certain substances like alcohol can be life-threatening, hence it is vital that detox, when needed, is carried out in a medically supervised environment. At Castle Craig, we have a dedicated detox unit that offers 24/7 clinical support and medication can be prescribed to assist the detox process should our medical team deem it necessary. Medically managed detox ensures maximum safety and effectiveness.
Addiction to substances like cocaine or cannabis don’t usually require detoxification, but we assess and monitor all patients when they arrive to determine their detoxification regimen.

A week before leave treatment you will have a meeting with our Continuing Care Co-ordinator, where you will learn more about the 24 week Continuing Care programme and learn about our Recovery Club of alumni.
