Positive: This is a gorgeous place in a beautiful location. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming, always happy to help with any requests. We loved that breakfast was provided, such a great bonus for weary travellers and much appreciated. Our one niggle: We understand being in a farming area flies can get pretty crazy and we loved that there were insect nets on all the windows- not something commonly seen in NZ houses. Somehow the pesky things still made it in though and caused a wee bit of frustration when trying to sleep in! Not sure there is much that can be done about that. We were lucky to have gorgeous weather and the flies seemed to love this too! Bottom line: We would happily stay here again.
Summary: Comfortable relaxing stay, stunning location.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Great choice, covered many options (I am coeliac but don't expect this to be covered)
Negative: Our mattress was way too firm but we could have chosen the other one. There were wasps in the bathroom in the morning.. possibly came through the exhaust fan. They went after we turned on the fan but spraying them to kill them made a mess!
Summary: Delightful, (mostly) comfortable, loved the attention to detail to make our stay enjoyable.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Our hosts were lovely, and their property is in a gorgeous location. There were lots of little touches that made the property great for tourists - food options, maps of local area, breakfast food etc.
Negative: Nothing really - the property was FREEZING overnight but this can't really be helped. We stayed warm with the heat pump and electric blankets.
Summary: Lovely place for an overnight trip for hobbiton

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Loved the space, the lotr decor and the lovely property/farm. The owner is a gem of a human and we adored chatting. We got married at hobbiton and this space was utterly perfect: right down the street, great open space and lots of mirrors, and a great space to have friends and family go in and out of all day for the event. She helped with lots of parking options. The breakfast was lovely. And we absolutly loved Ludo, the house dog 🥰
Negative: Everything was amazing but recommend having some hangers on hand. And totally a personal preference but I like to have tvs in the rooms. The WiFi is as also a little spotty but not much of an issue.
