On first glance it looks old and run down but the owner was very helpful with things to not kiss and inside they were brilliant.

    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
