Suberb hotel and facilities. We booked through ygt who made it easy for us. We stayed in the tip lady lodge that is a beautiful annex building the rooms are fantastic. The package with your golf travel included bed breakfast and evening meal with 2 rounds of golf. All meals are taken in the clubhouse not the hotel. The clubhouse is really good. Thanks Tom and ygt great value for money.

My Golf Travel and Rockliffe have been fantastic, as my stay had to be moved many times for various reasons. They moved my booking, with no hassle, or question. We had a beautiful room with terrace overlooking the gardens snd golf course. We ate dinner and breakfast in the Orangery conservatory. The golf was amazing on a beautiful course. We also enjoyed the fabulous spa. All in all a wonderful experience.

I’ve been lucky enough to stay at many of the top golf resorts and Rockliffe Hall is right up there with the best of them. The hotel is quite simply magnificent in every respect. If you’re looking for a place to stay where everything is superbly managed and where luxury is the priority then this is the place to book. You know it’s going to be good when the first thing you see upon arrival is someone sweeping the car park clear of about a dozen stray leaves!!!

Excellent value, golf course was in very good condition and all the staff friendly and helpful. Woodland Mews house was spacious (4 bedrooms). We were a party of eight and we will return in 2022, I thoroughly recommend Rockcliffe Hall and YourGolfTravel, booking was easy and organisation excellent and trouble free.

Excellent hotel with super accommodation in the Tiplady lodge. Room had its own sitting area, fridge and outside seating area. We are in both the clubhouse and Orangery restaurants which were of high quality. Clubhouse is definitely the right option for golfers. The spa area is great and you needed to book as numbers were restricted. One of best hotels we have stayed at in U.K.

Excellent suite in the old Hall and parking right in front of the door except one night when we were told the parking was being reserved for VIP's (what were we?). The suite was excellent great view but the whole visit was spoiled by not having the Orangery Restaurant open instead we had to travel in the rain down to the clubhouse which is not 5 star experience. The room service was also not operating when the restaurant was closed except for breakfast which could only be picked from the standard breakfast menu also not a 5 star experience. Sadly I am afraid overall a disappointment.

New Government Covid-19 regulations were announced 2 days before our visit, which caused some confusion for one receptionist, but with help from YGT's Harry Clarke,we were changed from one twin-bed room to 2 superb double bedrooms, at no additional cost!

Firstly, don’t be put off by the course having the rather daunting acclaim of being the longest in Europe as that is totally dependent on which tees you decide to use. If you are the type of player that crunches a driver 350 yards then maybe the gold tees are right for your round but for most of us mere mortals the yellow tees are the ones to use. There are plenty of interesting holes and there’s also a fair amount of water. The greens are well maintained and run true, and it’s worth mentioning that the course isn’t overly tight. The clubhouse itself is a short walk down the hill from the hotel and is superbly managed (much like many of the top American venues). The breakfast we had there was superb with one of our party stating it was the best he’d ever had. The pro shop lads are friendly & efficient. All in all a fabulous experience and we will be returning in the very near future.

Fabulous course with excellent bunkering and interesting holes around water hazards. Course was very quite midweek and we got round in 4 hours. Greens were being treated and were very sandy but ran true. It’s a long walk so some players may need to use a buggy. Fairways reasonable wide so will be playable for all handicaps. The whole package was excellent value for money.

After a prolonged period of wet weather, the course was quite wet, & no buggies were available. However, the electric trollies had gps distance equipment, & the superb greens were unnaffected by the rain, & were very difficult to read. The course is long, with frequent water hazards, & the golf ball did not run far when it landed. However, it was really enjoyable once you accepted you needed an extra shot on par 4 & 5 holes, & we will certainly vist again next year!
