Our Environmental Promise

Loading...

Our passion for the environment:

Within Carrick Lodge itself, we reduce our environmental footprint via

  • Being proactive with recycling, including donating goods from our units to the local  second hand store whenever anything is updated.
  • Wherever possible, buying locally and buying in bulk to reduce packaging and freight.
  • We are fully air-conditioned to lower our energy usage and impact on the environment

 

The Tiaki Promise is a nation-wide commitment from both visitors and locals to care for New Zealand, for now and for future generations. It encompasses three elements:

  • Caring for land, sea and nature by treading lightly and leaving no trace.
  • Travelling safely, by showing care and consideration for all.
  • Respecting culture by travelling with an open heart and mind.
  • We encourage our visitors to embrace the Tiaki Promise as we do ourselves within the Carrick Lodge team.

 

Embodying the meaning of Manaakitanga – our ‘Central Otago Hospitality’

In Maori culture, Manaakitanga is a traditional value that is central to society, and inspires the way that travellers are made to feel welcome.  As “born and bred” Southland locals Bob & Di are proud to host our guests in beautiful Central Otago, and aim to embody this value in everything that they do – from recommending the best things to do in the region, to going over and above to ensure your stay is truly top-notch. This is reflected in Trip Advisor  reviews for Carrick Lodge Motel.
