About Primrose Lodge
Located in the heart of Surrey, Primrose Lodge helps adults step away from the addiction cycle and give themselves a proper chance to reset in a relaxed and homely atmosphere. Their detox and residential programmes address both physical and emotional aspects of recovery, ensuring clients leave equipped with healthier ways to cope.
Explore a Mix of Proven Therapies
Primrose Lodge creates a customised treatment plan for each client, including both evidence-based and holistic practices, and involving family in recovery.

Detox, when necessary, is completed under medical guidance.
