Rockliffe Hall to undergo £750,000 parkland development

In this episode we speak to Anthony Hunt, partner and co-head of Corporate Real Estate at law firm Howard Kennedy. We discuss why 2026 may be seen as a pivotal year for boutique hotels, unpack the rise of global nomadism and how this is shaping demand and trends across hospitality, and how a strong team and clear, consistent messaging and offerings are key to securing investment.

Rockliffe Hall near Darlington has announced plans to transform one and a half acres of land, adjacent to the main hotel, into a multi-functional parkland for guests.

The owners of the 61-bedroom property said the main aim of the £750,000 development will be to help keep younger visitors entertained, while also creating a new offering for older guests.

Planning has been approved on the project and work will begin in the next few weeks with the facilities expected to open in the summer.

The announcement is the latest in a string of investments into the five-star resort, including the recent refurbishment of its Orangery restaurant and the addition of a £1m spa garden that was launched at the end of 2015.

More details about the project, architects drawings and models will be revealed in March.
