We were really pleased with our little ensuite room. Nicely decorated in a shabby chic style. The shower was great, the bed was comfortable and it was all spotlessly clean. Outside the window were lavender plants so we had a lovely scent coming in. Stored our ice blocks in the communal kitchen freezer and ate at the pub/restaurant next door which was really good food. Delighted with the tiny town, ate breakfast at Fat Pigeon which was also lovely food.

    Very unique location. We stayed in the Hobbiton cave unit. Beds are very comfortble, rooms are clean. If you want to experience something totally different from your 'standard' motel just do it!! If you are travelling with children they will totally love the unique room. (boat, airplane or hobbit cave)

    Novelty motel - we stayed in the Hobbit hole. Nice location. Easy walk to food and glow worm location (ticket purchase, not the actual cave location)

    The difference of the location, it is exciting to stay in a boat or airplane for the experience in comparison to just a standard motel room
