The Shiners Shire – Real Hobbit inspired Earth Home | Hot Tub | No Stairs | Forgotten Forest
Stay in a real Hobbit-style earth home built into the land, designed for comfort, accessibility, and unforgettable memories. The Shire is a one-of-a-kind property that blends handcrafted details, rustic elegance, and immersive design—while still offering modern conveniences.
This unique home is entirely on one level with no stairs in or out, making it ideal for families, multi-generational groups, and guests seeking step-free access. Naturally insulated by the earth, the home remains cozy and comfortable year-round.

Inside, the open-concept living space features warm wood tones, exposed beams, and a round stone arched fireplace that anchors the room. The fully equipped kitchen includes a rustic stone backsplash, hanging pot rack, island seating for four, and a solid oak dining table seating seven—perfect for shared meals and connection.

Guests will enjoy a barrel-style arcade unit with 60 classic games, providing fun for kids and adults alike.

The Shire offers three thoughtfully designed bedrooms:

A storybook queen bedroom with fireplace and stained-glass circular window
An enchanted queen bedroom with arched sleeping nook and twin trundle bed
A primary king suite with hand-carved bed, stone accent wall, fireplace, and private ensuite with walk-in shower and double stone sinks
Outside, relax on the covered porch, unwind in the private hot tub, enjoy the forest swing, or gather around the fire pit across a wooden bridge for s’mores and evening stories.
Guests also enjoy exclusive access to the Forgotten Forest, featuring a whimsical labyrinth, dragon sculpture, mystical stone circle, picnic area, wishing well, and ever-evolving magical elements.

Ideal for families, couples, fantasy lovers, and unique getaways, The Shire is more than a vacation rental—it’s a destination.

Please note: The Shire is part of an expanding magical property. Light daytime construction noise may be present. Introductory rates are currently available.
