Skipton Aged Care Hostel is a small residential aged care hostel in Skipton in the Pyrenees Shire of western Victoria, providing low-care hostel accommodation for older residents of this small rural farming town and surrounding pastoral communities. Skipton is a quiet sheep and grain farming town in the western districts, and the hostel enables residents to remain in their community close to family rather than travelling to larger centres like Ballarat or Ararat for care. The hostel offers personalised personal care, lifestyle activities, and a home-like environment in a close-knit rural community.
