Can’t thank them enough!Posted on HTRGNS RecordsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I spent 28 days here and these 5 stars are deserved. All the staff knew my name before I arrived, the support in group therapy and 1-1 therapy was outstanding. Having done rehab twice previously and been in private therapy for 6 years this standard of treatment is exceptional. The food is also amazing, rooms are pleasant and the grounds are lovely.Posted on Ian ClancyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent food, excellent staff. Excellent accommodation. The therapy that I received with yevegiaia the therapist has changed my life. I have drank alcohol since I was a child and this is the first time in my life I have not wanted to drink. Even though I have been successful in all other areas in my life, Abbington house made me understand my Alcoholism and I feel positive for the future without alcohol. My family are happy with who I have become after the 8 weeks I have been here. Thank you Abbington team from my family and from me for changing my life.Posted on Alex GeorgiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very good people and place. It's self-evident that those who work here do so because they believe in what they do, and serve from their deep personal experiences with addiction and a will to give to others what was given to them. This is a 12-Step-based institution, dedicated to carrying the message to addicts of all kinds who have a will to recover. That said, the therapies offered are varied and far-reaching, with care and attention given to individual needs and to keeping a safe, productive environment. The location is beautiful, calm and pristine, and the food is delicious, plentiful, and organically sourced wherever possible. I cannot recommend this place enough for those seeking a new life and hope.Posted on Liz BroughtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
