Stayed one night to break up the journey from Te Anau to Christchurch. Hosts were absent the afternoon I arrived but clear (and cheerful) instructions were left to direct me to my room. I was impressed by the quality of the rooms furnishings. Extremely comfortable bed and great shower. Despite proximity to the main road and people arriving back late... More

Another great stay at Carrick Lodge. We are fast becoming frequent guests and this place never fails to impress. Rob and Joan are excellent hosts and we are always well looked after. Rooms are spotless, very spacious and include kitchenettes with stoves. The motel is walking distance to the shops and the local pub. Speaking of the local pub..... Highly... More

It is great to see return guests - some after many years and from different parts of the world. This is one of the great pleasures of this hospitality business - developing longterm relationships. I'm glad you agree with our slogan that Central Otago "never fails to impress". It isn't difficult to be very confident when we suggest places to... More

Not surprising to find this fine motel just as comfortable, clean and professional as ever. Ask Rob if he's got his wormery up and running yet! Bikes are available and there is plenty to see in the area. Summer temperatures are hot and a great place to taste fresh NZ fruit. Plenty of wineries too. Never known my washing dry... More

"Lang may your lum' reek" Rob... always a pleasure to see return guests and renew old acquaintances. I've got the systems in place but just need to get the worms to feed - and we will improve our footprint to be less obvious. One thing about central otago - it is quietly confident of its natural heritage and is making... More

Just returned from spending Christmas and New Years in Cromwell New Zealand. This is the without a doubt the place to stay. I had a beautiful executive room. The room was ready for me early in the morning, spotlessly clean and large. The owners are super friendly and helpful. This is an ideal place to stay as an alternative to... More

Great hosts and fantastic clean, big and modern rooms. All rooms have a small kitchen facility and outside seating space. They are fully equipped and are very clean and comfortable. The owner was very knowledgeable about the area and was keen to give us suggestions for things to do and see in the area.

We spent just one night at the Carrick but the friendliness of the hosts, cleanliness and comfort of the unit had us wishing we were staying longer. The unit outlook over a greenfield/park was lovely and relaxing after what had been a very busy day. Would have no hesitation in recommending Carrick Lodge - and as another reviewer said -... More
