A variety of lodgings are available including a 1950s Bristol freighter, a WWII patrol boat, a 1950s rail car, and even Lord of the Rings-inspired hobbit lodgings. Ranging from $150-180 NZD per night, they won't break your budget and offer a quiet respite from your city travels. The park itself boasts cultural "shows" including a peak into Maori and Kiwi culture. You even get to help shear a sheep. Check it out for yourself, with this video peek into a Hobbit Hole.
