It consists of a roomy bungalow with bathroom with hot water shower and a lovely terrace in a lush garden. In the main building you find another three rooms with new comfy beds and terraces too. From here also you enjoy a very nice view to the surrounding mountains. As a new feature Hobbit Hill provides WiFi. Of course all the rooms have mosquito nets too.
