Clouds House was founded in 1983 and since then has been helping clients with drug and alcohol addictions as well as the co-occurring mental health disorders. They base their program on the 12-Step Program and use modern, up-to-date research. They offer group therapy, individual therapy, 24 hour medical care, relapse prevention, on-site detox, and addiction-and-psychiatric assessments. They provide after care every week on Wednesdays at Clouds House and Tuesdays in central London. Clouds House treats private paid clients, those who have private insurance, and sometimes those who are recipients of state funding. The belief of Clouds House is that community is vital to recovery, so they encourage their clients to participate in community events and outings. They are registered by the Care Quality Commission.

Clouds House is a beautiful country home in the village of East Knoyle. All meals are freshly prepared by chefs and suit all clients’ dietary requirements. Bedrooms are shared because they believe it encourages hope and solidarity. Clouds House can accommodate 38 people at any time. They offer gender-specific accommodations. They provide a women's only lounge and gender-specific communal living area. Clouds House has group therapy, relaxation and mindfulness sessions, and yoga.
