I highly recommend Linwood House. The staff and therapists were wonderful — the whole team made me feel supported throughout my stay. The food was great, the house was always clean, and everyone was professional and caring. The group therapy sessions were excellent, and my one-to-one sessions with Anna were especially helpful. She truly supported me on this journey and made a real difference to my recovery experience.

The experience with the staff was exceptional — everyone was amazing, supportive, and professional throughout my stay. The food was great, around 8/10, and the place itself was spotless, which I would rate 10/10. I would highly recommend the group sessions and would rate them 9/10. The one-to-one sessions with Anna were exceptional — definitely 10/10 — and helped me tremendously. I’ve been to rehab before, but I learned far more here than anywhere else. The structure is strict, but it works very well and really helps you stay focused on recovery.
