Weekend Trip to Camp in nature close to Hobbiton

We loved camping here! The owners, Ata and Doris, are lovely people. They showed us around their property and were incredibly welcoming. Great spot for tent camping with a fun outdoor shower/outhouse setup and beautiful forest trails.

Weekend Trip to Hubbys retreat

Amazing place for solitude and a stunning view within striking distance of Hobbiton and Zealong Estate. Stuart was fantastic..led us on an intrepid drive up the farm race and we ended up perched on a hill with an endless view and a stunning sunrise. Lovely walks on stunning farmland. Thank you Stuart for your kindness and generous spirit.
