The main point of our trip was to visit Hobbiton Movie Set.

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.

Clean and spacious accommodation with lots of useful amenities and undercover parking. Easy check in. Breakfast provided which was a nice touch. 10-15 minute walk into the centre of Matamata where there are lots of shops and places to eat. Very easy to drive from here to Hobbiton movie set.
