Diane’s place is the perfect spot for exploring the area. So close to Hobbiton and an easy drive to waitomo glow worm caves. We flew into Auckland and made the drive to Diane’s place to get a good nights rest before taking on activities in the area. Worked out perfectly by doing Hobbiton in the am & the glow worm caves in the afternoon. Got a great nights rest to fight off jet lag! Diane has provided everything you’d need to make your stay comfortable!!
