Rockliffe Hall offers the most elegant and luxurious hotel rooms in County Durham. At Rockliffe Hall we believe that bedrooms should be about relaxing so all of our guest bedrooms are big on space, big on comfort, and big on little luxuries. From the super king-size beds to the ‘Tile TVs’ in the bathrooms, you will be surrounded by indulgence (even most twin rooms have double beds).
Each of our 61 bedrooms are designed to offer guests the ultimate in luxury. Look out onto the beautiful golf course, surrounding countryside, and the meandering River Tees. Bathrooms are crisp, modern and spacious. Relax in the Villeroy & Boch bathtub and enjoy the peace and quiet or watch your favourite program on the bathroom ‘Tile TVs’.
Further accommodation options are also available on the resort. Tiplady Lodge is stepping distance from the Old Hall but screened by trees and offers contemporary-styled rooms with the ultimate privacy.
Our Woodland Mews Holiday Homes offer the chance to experience all the benefits of Rockliffe Hall from the privacy and intimacy of a 4 bed-roomed holiday home. Or for another luxury home-away -from-home option, Armstrong House’s one- and two-bedroom apartments give the ultimate freedom and are great for families.
We also have a selection of rooms that are wheelchair accessible and specially designed to accommodate disabled guests.
Accessibility
Rockliffe Hall is committed to providing the highest standards of customer care to each and every guest no matter what their different needs may be. We aim to make our hotel facilities available and accessible to all of our guests equally. To ensure our facilities may be enjoyed by all we offer:
Ample wide parking bays within close proximity to each of the entrances to Rockliffe Hall.
Lowered curb access to all entrances of the hotel.
The desks at reception are lowered to make them more accessible to all of our guests.
Each of our 7 DDA compliant bedrooms features extra wide doorways, lower hanging rail and higher sockets and a wide door in to the bathroom.
The spacious bathroom has been designed to be a wet room environment with a support chair and grab rails in the shower, and a lowered bath (which still features the tile Television).
Across the hotel the doors are wider than standard DDA guidelines, and double doors are in place where possible.
The heights of the tables, and the space between them, are at the right height and width for wheelchair users and we have lifts to all floors, and ramp access to areas on higher and lower levels.
Guests with hearing impairments are provided with a vibrating pillow in case of fire evacuation. Guests are also provided with personal alarms.
We welcome guide dogs to the hotel.
