The hobbit house was a hit with our kids, after having visited Hobbiton they were excited to stay in their own hobbit hill! The accommodation was larger than we thought it would be, though as expected with it's location under a hill, it was a bit musty; however, we quickly adjusted and it didn't bother us at all. Don't be alarmed if you hear farm animals walking over the roof in the morning! The location itself is pretty quirky; our kids enjoyed being able to run around freely outside and check out the different types of rooms (e.g., the plane, boat). There's not much by way of a kitchen, just a small bar fridge and hot plate, but we expected this and so weren't put off. Just two minutes away there's a small town with some really good places to eat - we had one of the best meals of our trip at the Tomo Bar and Eatery. The accommodation is just a couple minutes away from the Waitomo Caves and 20 minutes from Spellbound.
