A calm, structured place to step away from alcohol, stabilise safely, and rebuild recovery before returning home.

Recovery is not built overnight.

 

Lasting recovery develops over time through the right combination of support, structure, accountability, and environment. Detox may remove alcohol or drugs from the body, but recovery is the process of rebuilding a life.

 

Detox → Stabilisation:  £6,995 (2 Weeks)

 

Begin your recovery journey with a medically supervised detox delivered through our clinical partners. This phase focuses on managing withdrawal safely and comfortably while providing the support, care, and structure needed to regain physical stability, mental clarity, and emotional balance.


Our experienced team will help you navigate the challenges of early recovery in a safe, supportive environment, creating the foundation for the next stage of your journey.

Recovery Integration Programme – £1,995 per Week

Recovery is not simply about stopping a substance. It is about learning how to live well without it.


The Recovery Integration Programme is designed to bridge the gap between treatment and everyday life. While detox addresses physical dependence, lasting recovery requires new routines, new skills, new ways of thinking, and a supportive environment in which these changes can take root.


This structured residential programme helps guests build the foundations for long-term recovery through recovery education, the Integrated Step Course, Quintiva Framework workshops, peer support, wellbeing activities, personal development, community integration, and practical recovery planning.


The focus is on helping individuals strengthen their recovery capital, rebuild confidence, establish healthy daily routines, improve emotional resilience, and develop a meaningful life beyond addiction.


Recovery is not measured simply by abstinence. It is measured by the ability to create a life that is stable, purposeful, connected, and worth protecting.


A minimum stay of 28 days following detox is strongly recommended to maximise the opportunity for lasting recovery and successful reintegration into everyday life.

A Safer, More Complete Approach to Recovery

Detox is often the first step. However, while detox is an important initial phase, it is rarely enough by itself.

Alcohol detox helps the body stabilize. From there, real recovery can begin, allowing thoughts, emotions, and behavior to gradually settle. Without this stabilization period, many people go back to their daily lives too soon and struggle to maintain their progress.

At Somerton Lodge, detox is complemented by a structured follow-up phase of ongoing recovery support upon request. Take control of your recovery journey by contacting Somerton Lodge today to discover personalized support options and start your path toward lasting change.

Why Staying Longer Matters

One of the most common risks in recovery is leaving too early. This isn't because someone isn’t committed, but simply because they’re not quite ready yet. We’ve noticed more and more guests choosing to stay beyond detox — sometimes for several weeks, and up to three months.

 

They do this not because they have to, but because they start to see how valuable it is to have that extra time to truly stabilize and build a solid foundation for their recovery. Remember, the real progress often begins after detox, not just during it.

A Different Kind of Environment

Somerton Lodge offers a comforting sanctuary away from clinical settings. It’s a warm, inviting place where individuals can gently step out of crisis, take a moment to slow down, regain their clarity, and start to rebuild. The quiet, private, and supportive environment is thoughtfully designed to reduce pressure, helping recovery unfold naturally at a comfortable pace.

Who this is for?

Many people find their way here after searching for alcohol rehab on the Isle of Wight. What they’re often hoping for isn’t just treatment, but a welcoming place where real recovery can start to take root. At Somerton Lodge, we offer a private, supportive setting that’s a warm alternative to more clinical environments — helping with stabilisation after detox, emotional well-being, and laying the groundwork for lasting change.

Who This Is For?


This approach is great for individuals who:


• Feel caught in a cycle of starting and stopping
• Have attempted to manage drinking on their own
• Are seeking more than just a quick fix
• Desire a private, structured alternative to traditional rehab

Featured Review

After years of battling alcohol addiction, my addiction therapist, Peter Davies, referred me to Somerton Lodge Detox and Recovery Centre, a decision that profoundly transformed my life. I initially planned a two-week alcohol detox, recognising that recovery was too challenging at home with AA meetings and therapy alone. Having attended three other rehab facilities over the years (The Priory, UKAT and Mount Carmel), I can confidently say this is the only one I fully endorse and wholeheartedly recommend. Somerton Lodge distinguishes itself by prioritising sustained recovery rather than merely processing clients. The support, education, compassion and aftercare exceed anything I have experienced before. Their holistic approach focuses on detoxifying the body and restoring the mind, emotions and spirit. The lodge’s atmosphere is deeply restorative: calm, safe, encouraging, personable and positive. Every staff member is dedicated to supporting you on your journey of healing, self-discovery and general well-being. John Elford demonstrates exceptional knowledge of addiction and recovery; his passion, commitment and expertise enhance every aspect of the centre's programme. After a week, I realised this was the environment I had always hoped to find and needed. I extended my stay to three months to pursue lasting recovery. It is the most valuable investment I have ever made. Somerton Lodge provided hope, effective tools, insight and a genuine opportunity for a new life. In recovery, a renewed life is truly priceless. This place will always hold a special place in my heart. Sophia.
