Camelia Cottage intersects the bijou charm of a well provisioned cottage, and a good hotel. It is the kind of place you go back to for more. Clean with fresh linen on the beds and lots of towels. Decent size bathroom; with an awesome shower, solid pressure, and big enough for two. Sky TV that will keep kids entertained while you drink coffee or sundowners on the deck. Location is very convenient. Matamata is about 6 min with decent restaurants or takeaways, and a supermarket. While Hobbiton is about 15 min drive away. One tip: turn into the drive way, take the right hand entrance, cottage on your left by the topiary pony.
Jane is super friendly and very helpful. She delivered fresh fruit and milk for our stay. And answered all queries. I highly recommend Camelia Cottage.
