Peppers Clearwater Resort

On a mirror‑calm lake in Christchurch’s Northwood, this 4.5‑star golf resort sits steps from Clearwater Golf Club and The Groynes. You’ll also be close to Styx Mill Conservation Reserve and Willowbank Wildlife Reserve, with Hagley Park and Westfield Riccarton Mall roughly 11 km away.

About 70–75 individually decorated guestrooms offer refrigerators, minibars and LCD TVs, plus down comforters and premium bedding. Bathrooms have separate tubs and showers with complimentary toiletries and hair dryers. Expect lake or golf‑course views, in‑room safes and handy desks for a practical, polished stay.

Play a round at Clearwater Golf Club, hit the outdoor tennis courts, or call the concierge to arrange local tours. Babysitting/childcare is available (surcharge), making the hotel family‑friendly. Other perks include 24‑hour room service, free self‑parking, express check‑in/out, and laundry/dry‑cleaning.

Conference space and meeting rooms (about 1,345 sq ft / 125 sq m) plus express check‑in/out and wireless internet availability make this a practical choice for small events.

The Lakes Restaurant overlooks the golf course and serves drinks at the bar with alfresco options when weather allows. Cooked‑to‑order breakfasts are available daily (fee), and limited‑hour room service keeps late arrivals fed.
