Here's your chance to live like a hobbit in The Shire


Imagine having your Elevenses in this room at Hobbiton in Waikato, New Zealand. — Airbnb

One of New Zealand's top themed attractions is definitely the Hobbiton Movie Set, located in Waikato on the north island. This was where parts of the famous The Lord Of The Rings and The Hobbit film trilogies were filmed, specifically scenes that depicted The Shire, or home of the Hobbits.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Airbnb and Russell Alexander are offering fans of the films, as well as author J.R.R. Tolkien, the chance to stay the night at Hobbiton.
