About Castle Craig

Castle Craig is a world-renowned residential rehab clinic treating substance addiction, gambling and gaming addiction, and co-occurring conditions like depression, anxiety, burnout, trauma, relationship issues, and eating disorders. Their clinical team conducts a medical examination upon arrival to tailor treatment to client needs. They offer medical detox as needed. Castle Craig is part of the Castle Health Group, including Smarmore Castle in Ireland, Stockholms Beroendeklinik, CATCH Recovery in London, and Castle Craig Nederlands.
Castle Craig's vision of recovery goes beyond helping clients when they are in treatment—it aims for long-lasting results. Their 28+-day programme encompasses a range of therapeutic tools to treat the root of the condition(s). Their abstinence-based, evidence-based treatment follows 12-Step philosophy and incorporates individual therapy and group therapy. Complementary therapies include equine therapy, creative writing, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. They offer trauma-informed therapy, eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing (EMDR), and PTSD-specific therapy.
Castle Craig offers a robust family programme and intervention services with a trained interventionist. Their aftercare includes a comprehensive 24-week programme, offering individual and group therapy sessions, relapse prevention planning, skill building, support network integration, and a holistic wellness focus. All clients can join the Recovery Club, dedicated to improving life quality and relationship building by providing accountability through routine check-ins, an annual reunion, an alumni group chat, and a support line. Additional services like sober transport and retreats are also available, with the aim to support a smooth transition from rehab to everyday life.
Built in 1798, Castle Craig’s mansion retains many original features, including magnificent fireplaces, marble pillars, and exquisitely carved panelling. Since it was purchased by the McCanns in 1988, it’s been fully renovated to fulfill all necessary requirements of a leading treatment center in the UK. Castle Craig is set on 50 acres of woodland and gardens with plenty of space for activities and therapies such as yoga, equine therapy, alpaca walks, nature walks, fitness activities, and outdoor therapy. Spa services include acupuncture, aromatherapy, and massage. Clients enjoy outings such as hiking. Castle Craig undergoes rigorous inspections by Intertek, an independent quality improvement inspectorate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Castle Craig accept Medicaid?
SAMHSA data does not list Medicaid among this facility's accepted payment types. Call +44 (131) 381 0190 directly to confirm — coverage may have changed since the last SAMHSA sync. You can also browse other CA centers that accept Medicaid.
What level of care does Castle Craig offer?

Specific therapy approaches are not listed in SAMHSA data. Contact the facility for clinical details.
How do I start treatment at Castle Craig?
Call the facility directly at +44 (131) 381 0190 for an intake assessment. Our free 24/7 helpline (+1 (205) 973-2878) can also help you compare programs, verify insurance, and navigate options. No physician referral is required.
Is treatment confidential?
Yes. Federal law (42 CFR Part 2) provides strict confidentiality protections for substance use treatment records — stricter than HIPAA. Records cannot be disclosed without written consent, even to family, employers, or law enforcement.
What happens when you call? (general intake process)

Most treatment centers follow a 4-step intake: (1) confidential assessment — substance history, mental health, insurance, preferences (protected by 42 CFR Part 2); (2) insurance verification — facility contacts your plan to confirm coverage and out-of-pocket costs; (3) level-of-care recommendation — clinical staff match you to detox, residential, PHP, IOP, or outpatient based on severity; (4) admission typically within 24–48 hours. Timing varies by facility and bed availability.
