Sunday Times Where Was I? competition

(www.thetimes.co.uk/travel/where-was-i)


The prize:

The winner and guest will stay for two nights, B&B, in a suite at Rockliffe Hall, near to the border between Co Durham and North Yorkshire. Based around a grand, 19th-century mansion, this five-star resort hotel has grown to include self-catering holiday homes, an 18-hole championship golf course and a driving range. Facilities include a state-of-the-art spa, equipped with a broad 20m pool, thermal suite and garden.

There are three restaurants – the Clubhouse, Nu Sana and the Orangery, headed by Paul Nicholson, previously head chef at the Michelin-starred Clock House in Surrey. At Rockliffe he’ll have produce from the new kitchen garden to draw on, as well as the honey from ten beehives.

The prize includes one dinner for two (excluding drinks) at the Orangery and one spa treatment each. It must be taken before October 31, 2023, subject to availability and excluding public holidays. The competition closes at the end of Wednesday, November 2, 2022.
