Rooms

All the rooms at The Rockwell have a distinctive personality all of their own, they are decorated in a Contemporary English style with solid Oak cupboards and desks that have been crafted to fit the room and maximise space. The feel of the rooms is modern but they do retain some classically English features like the large Victorian windows that stretch from the floor up to the high ceilings, which bathe the rooms in light. All the beds have pocket sprung mattresses, merino wool bedspreads and fine Eygptian cotton sheets. The bathrooms are replenished daily with lotions and soaps from the 'White Company'. Fluffy towelling dressing gowns and hairdryers are available for guests use and are housed within the generous cupboard space.
