They’re taking the hobbits to Donegal.
If you’ve ever fancied living like Bilbo Baggins of The Shire, now might be your chance.
There’s a legit “Hobbit Hillpod” available on Airbnb, based right here in Ireland. Glencolumbkille in Donegal to be exact.
The description of the property reads: “Our architect-designed retreat is perfect for two, and cleverly thought out to be comfortable. So nothing is ‘caravan size’ – all appliances, bed etc are full size.
“It is better insulated than almost any modern home, and easily heated by an electric heater and warm all year round – though in this coastal location warmed by the gulf stream sub-zero temperatures are rare.”
The location also includes WiFi, a television, a kitchen, a full-size double bed and a shower. Most of which they did not have in the Lord of the Rings.
According to Airbnb, 90% of recent guests gave the location a 5-star rating.
Maybe the most remarkable element of the location is that it’s available from just €69 per night. You can check it out for yourself here.
Just be on the lookout for Smeagol.
