Holiday Homes in Russell

Russell holiday homes and accommodation gather along a quiet waterfront in one of the country’s oldest European settlements, under the pōhutukawa.

Cottages and baches on the hill behind the Strand are a few minutes’ walk from the water. Christ Church still carries musket holes from 1845, and the track up Flagstaff Hill ends where Hōne Heke felled the pole four times. Over the ridge, Long Beach is a wide stretch of sand with calm water for swimming.
