Title: New Hobbit Motel opens in New Zealand
Post by: EG on May 19, 2005, 05:22:09 AM

Built in Woodlyn Park in Waitomo not far from the holes built from the movies!

Fancy staying in a Hobbit hole for real!

Wow! They look dead cool! Although the fronts of them don't look quite like i would expect a hobbit hole to look like!

he he....imagine if they carried on in this theme for other films.....you could go and stay in Bates Motel or other fun places (which i can't think of at the moment....bates motel was the only one that occured to me!)

Hehehe thats amazing! The inside looks a little bit plain for my liking, but I'll have to remember that for when I've saved up enough to go there...  :D

Weee that is SO not expensive.  $130 per couple per night!  What a pity it is so far away, one would go and stay there just for the sake of it otherwise.

B I wouldn't say £50.39 per couple per night is that expensive mind you when you add in the air fare then that kiils it as a week ned retreat.

B if you can't afford the air fare (as I can't) you could always swim
