We spent a wonderful couple of hours looking round the film set of The Hobbit.
The little houses in the hillside were just perfect with great detail.
Little washing lines, wood stacks, vegetable plots & all manner of comforts for a hobbit.
The tree on top of the hill above Blibo's house had been sawn up, all the branches numbered & reassembled. Fake leaves had been attached by students..... the whole thing looked so real & birds were fooled too!
Quite expensive to go round but worth it & of course we couldn't not go as only a few miles from where we were staying.
this is fabulous Pat - what a great opportunity to go and visit this place - it's a great shot of the set. I hope the Hobbits invited you in for a cup of tea!
@sparkle I took loads of pictures Juliette & actually this isn't a good angle as you cant see the main door very well but it was just the only position I could get the photo. I had to show you Bilbo's house though...might post some more photos sometime!
What a lovely place!! I haven't seen the movie - but hubby and kids loved it! (I loved the book - can't believe they will get a trilogy out of it! - looks just how I had imagined it!)
@bpaquette@sabresun Cost an arm & a leg to get in but well worth it...the detail was incredible!!! Even the little letterboxes depicted the trade of the hobbits.
