Absolutely gorgeous little B&B, perfect for our overnight stay, and would be very comfy for a few days. Well stocked for breakfast and snacks, beautifully appointed with super comfy bed, and linens and a lovely bathroom. Quiet, cosy, hosts very welcoming - couldn't fault it and would recommend to anyone, and happily stay again. Thank you for a lovely experience.

Quaint and in the heart of Hobbiton country, this cottage was ideal! Location was perfect! With beds that were as comfortable as beds from back home, this cottage has it all. The host is very quick to respond and attentive. A welcome loaf of bread, butter and milk to welcome you to your own little cottage was a slice of heaven. I would come back again and again. Thank you!

The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set. This is an amazing experience, our second trip. Have done both the lunch & dinner experience. Food, staff & experience rate a 10. Had a great meal at Sofra, food & staff were great. Breakfast at The Rich Coffee Cafe was nice and the staff were ok. Visited the I-Centre too and found the staff to be helpful.

Matamata is a nice little town with the usual array of shops and some good eating places. Of course its access to Hobbiton, which was the purpose of our trip, but enjoyed a pleasant evening eating fish n chips in the wooded, shaded park area by the Isite.

We were in Matamata for a wedding at Hobbiton which was a great experience for us, even though we are not Lord of the Rings fans. Plenty of places to dine and from Maple Lodge was an easy walk into the main centre of town.

Really great B&B in Matamata, very close to Hobbiton. The bed was super comfy, the kitchen fully equipped, everything was clean and tidy and the free onsite parking was much appreciated. It's also good value for money. The owners are very lovely and close by in case of any questions or problems, of which there were none. Perfect for a stop-over or even staying for a few days to explore the area. I would definitely stay here again.
