Rockliffe Hall in Hurworth, UK, will open a £1m (US$1.6m, €1.4m) spa garden next month at the 365 acre estate and resort.

The new spa garden has two outdoor hot pools, including an infinity edge hydrotherapy pool with massage features and a warm Jacuzzi. There is also underfloor heated decking, lounging areas, a traditional glass-fronted sauna cabin, a fire pit, a water feature, landscaped gardens with views across Rockliffe Hall’s grounds, and heated relaxation loungers.

Neom Organics has also developed some new treatments especially for Rockliffe Hall’s spa garden, including ‘energise’, ‘happiness', ‘de-stress’ and ‘sleep’-themed treatments using meditation, shiatsu, Thai massage plus trigger-point and reflexology techniques.

“Rockliffe Hall’s new spa garden is the most significant development since the resort was launched five years ago,” said Eamonn Elliott, chief executive of Rockliffe Hall.

“We have invested a lot of time to ensure it offers something completely new and is spectacular. Our spa is already one of the most successful in the UK but we will never become complacent, hence we continually strive to offer people yet another reason to come to the North East.”

The five-star resort features 61 bedrooms and two luxury houses, and Rockliffe’s wellness centre includes 13 treatment rooms.

Work started on the new spa garden in January, with local contractors Wharton Construction managing the project.
