The Old Church Backpackers Hostel

Surrounded by scenic reserve and set on 20 acres, the converted Old Church sits on the banks of the Kakapotahi River, which is renowned for kayaking and fishing.

The Old Church provides twin, double and dormitory style accommodation and provides a relaxing environment for those wanting to explore Ross's fabulous natural environment, share in its interesting heritage and culture or just relax and absorb the atmosphere.

Take a stroll on one of the many great bush walks, go bike riding on the bikes provided, take a stroll on the beach just 3km away, play some pool and listen to records, or just relax in front of the open fire and watch the river go by.
