There’s A Hobbit-Themed Airbnb In Nebraska And It’s The Perfect Little Hideout

If you’ve ever wanted to escape daily life and cozy up in a hobbit-hole, now’s your chance! This hobbit house Airbnb in Nebraska, complete with sweet round doors and windows, is an adorable place to spend a weekend. Stay inside and snuggle up with a J.R.R. Tolkien classic or wander the natural surroundings – either way, this is a delightfully different place to stay.

The little structure's official name is the Covington Cottage, but there's no denying the resemblance to a certain type of home found in The Shire.

From the round wooden door to the cozy wood interior, this space is full of whimsy.

As soon as you enter the little home, you'll be greeted with the famous opening lines of *The Hobbit* on the entryway floor: "In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.”

And comfort is, indeed, what you'll find within these walls. The space is small, but in a fairytale kind of way.

If you're traveling with friends, the tiny cottage can sleep up to four people in its two beds. But if you're hoping for some privacy, Covington Cottage would make an outstanding choice for a romantic weekend away with the one you love.

There's even a small living area for, presumably, enjoying breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses, luncheon, afternoon tea, dinner, and supper.

An electric fireplace will keep you warm in the little cottage, which is built into the ground. Sweet little details throughout the space will bring to mind the unforgettable Tolkien novels (or movies) that so many of us have fallen in love with.

If you feel like venturing out, there's a whole lot to see in the South Sioux City area. Of course, you can always simply gather in the beautiful outdoor area for a bit of conversation.

It took more than a year to build this adorable Airbnb, and from what we can see, it looks like it was worth the effort. The little hobbit house is on the same property as Kottage Knechtion, a popular treehouse that you can also rent for a unique stay.
