We had the most wonderful stay with Kay and Jim. The area is so peaceful and beautiful - the lodge felt like a real home from home. Kay is so kind and really helped us out when we had an unexpected change of plans and needed to stay an extra night. Hunter the cat was so friendly and we enjoyed our daily visits from him. We swam in the outdoor pool which was very refreshing after a day's sightseeing. This homestead is the perfect location for Hobbiton which is only 5 mins away. Thanks for a fantastic few days.
