The Hobbit Hole is a unique experience and a great value. We enjoyed the outstanding view, the sheep and pigs feeding on the hillside, the fire and cooking supplies, and of course the fresh milk was much appreciated in our morning coffee. There was a wild thunderstorm that came through one of the nights we were there, and happy to report the Hobbit Hole held up quite well:)) This is a super convenient location for Hobbiton, and also a 40 minute drive from Rotorua hikes and sightseeing.
