I build the Hobbit hole just because I wanted one. It's very rustic and partly in a hill. Everything is Hobbit size, nice and cosy. Ideal for a romantic night out. I nice breakfast is supplied with mostly home made jams, bacon and eggs(from our own chickens) very quiet. ample parking space.
I very much like hosting and see people enjoying the Hobbit hole. I'm a Luthier (musical string instruments maker) and give courses guitar making.
