So, last weekend me, my husband Tim, Bestie Roxy & her partner Mike went on an adventure.
We are all fans of LOTR (Lord of the rings) and The Hobbit and when Roxy told me about the Hobbit hole to stay in we knew we had to book it up for the boys.
It was a surprise for them, they had no idea where we were going and what we were doing. So exciting.
We stayed at ‘West Stow Pods’ in their Hobbit Hole. This is in Stowmarket.
We stayed over from Fri-Sun, a perfect weekend stay (although we all agreed we could have happily stayed for longer!!)
It was SO cool, we just kept turning to each other and saying ‘We’re staying in a Hobbit hole!!’ with big smiles on our faces.
The boys both loved it and just kept saying how cool it was (mission accomplished)
It looked so authentic inside and out with the iconic round door, sloping, curved walls, wooden interior, fireplace and so on. The furniture was all wooden too and there were even a few props and stuff which were fun 🤣
There were all the films if you wanted to watch them, all the books and even some board games too.
We did a high ropes activity nearby, whilst we were there, which was good fun.
It had everything you needed for your stay. All we needed to do was shop for a feast, a feast fit for a Hobbit.
It was in its only little area of the forest and had it’s only fenced front garden (which we ate our lunch in, on the Saturday, when the sun came out, bliss) so although you knew there were other pods nearby you could totally emerse yourself in the experience and get lost in the magic of this quaint and unique place.
I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for somewhere a bit different to stay for a weekend and for any LOTR and/or Hobbit fans, it’s a must.
Until next time,
Roseanne 🙂
