A JOURNEY
INTO
WELLNESS
The Spa at Rockliffe is one of the most
luxurious in the country – and it’s
right on your doorstep…
A
re the rigours of modern-day living
getting too much? Do you need
some rest and relaxation? Perhaps
you want to give yourself or a loved one an
extra special gift. Whatever the occasion, a
spa break at Rockliffe Hall is a luxurious and
indulgent treat for the senses.
Your spa journey begins…
Whether you visit for the day, an overnight
break or join as a spa member, this haven
of tranquillity at one of the region’s most
impressive hotels will leave you feeling
relaxed, refreshed and ready to face the
world again.
Fitness lovers can start their day with a
workout in the state of the art gym or join in
a class. If cardio isn’t your thing, simply slip
into your swimming costume and snuggle
into a complimentary fluffy bathrobe and
slippers before wandering into the spa's
thermal suite which is
home to a 20m long
pool.
Take a leisurely
swim before hopping
over to the hydro
pool where you can
recline on air beds
and allow tiny bubbles
to massage your body
or aim body jets to
soothe an aching back.
First class facilities
As well as the pool, the thermal suite is home
to a wealth of fabulous features. Among
other pleasures, there’s the tropicarium with
deeply cleansing and therapeutic moist heat,
a traditional Roman sauna and an icy igloo
which is a fantastic antidote to hot skin –
grab a handful of snowflakes to close pores
and reinvigorate the senses.
If you’d like some fresh air while you
relax, step into the outdoor hot tub or book
yourself a session in the Spa Garden where
you can soak up the sun and the gorgeous
views in the infinity pool, glass-fronted
sauna and tepidarium beds. Refreshments
are available throughout your stay, plus you
can take lunch and dinner in the beautiful
Brasserie.
Optional extras
During your spa day, you may want to book
in for one of Rockliffe Spa’s signature face
or body treatments. There’s something to
suit everyone from indulgent massages,
invigorating scrubs and sublime facials – a
full list is online but be sure to book in
advance. You may also want to check the site
for seasonal special offers.
