Covid-19 Cancellations:
If you find yourself in the situation where you are unable to travel due to covid-19 restrictions we will not be invoking our cancellation policy as we fully understand this situation is out of all of our hands.
Covid-19 Vaccinations:
The NZ Government has announced the planned introduction of a "Traffic Light" system that will come into effect when 90% of eligible New Zealanders have been fully vaccinated. In accordance with that system, Church Hill Boutique Lodge & Restaurant, as a small and intimate hospitality venue, will require proof of vaccination (or valid documentation of vaccine exemption) from all guests. Guests who arrive when this system is in place without a valid vaccine certificate, or valid exemption, will be denied entry and their booking will be deemed a "no-show", incurring a 100% payment penalty. More information on the Traffic Light system can be found at https://covid19.govt.nz/alert-levels-and-updates/covid-19-protection/.
