  • SO IMPACTED

  • NO SINK OR BATHROOM!!!!!

  • @artistdenise1 i thought the same thing, cozy on winter evening's.... lol! holding in your poo lmao....

  • A pragmatic ideal for the angler on the lake

  • Hey look, a trailer for British trailer trash.

  • The max I would pay for this is between 3 and 4 dollars

  • In no way related to a hobbit house.

  • windows... i'm not a hobbit.

  • How Much???

  • It's a round room!

  • its the jipsei house out of fable 2

  • MRI house yeah totally hahahahha

  • hobbit houses are luxurious and quite big on the inside, at most this is a round shed

  • How much does this thing cost, for about 50 square feet of sleeping space? It's not living space I'm afraid, not doing anything else in there. Making it a tube like that is cute, but you just tripled the cost over making it a box.

  • MRI anyone?

  • looks like a prison cell

  • I think its quite good. But there is a few changes i would make to it :]

  • Looks more like a Hobbit prision!

  • That looks so boring...4 adults stuck in there....

    Maybe not the best idea. MRI house.....people would need valium before entering.

  • Hobbit house? It's way too small and it's not even underground....

  • totally tubular

  • There's no pooper also I feel like I would be getting an MRI laying in this thing. Cool for a kids play house I guess.

  • terrible design

    

  • like living in the barrel of a gun!! LOL

  • Very annoying music - shrill and unpleasant. As a camper, this looks incredibly yucky. Death trap if fire occurs. No ventilation. No view. No light. No thanks!

  • @1CherryTree hahaha the place is so small that fire is not a threat. Oh, that made my day.

  • Looks more like a fancy wine barrel.

  • i should be praying but i'm looking at this

  • @itubeyoublah lol...I should be praying too...somehow, I ended up here...

    regards,

    some muslim girl

  • This new type of prisons re very confortble! Thank you hobbits!

  • common people ..its hobbit music..tra la la lets skip down to the river and cross the bridge where the troll lives...then if we are lucky we will see a fairy and the hobbit that live in that house..oh by the way ...where is the bathroom and the kitchen ?? or Do the hobbits shit where they eat and sleep. the only other "home" that looks like this is a coffin , hmmmmmmmmmmm

  • eh..it's a tube, it's a house... it's a tube. House.

  • I left because of the music....

  • @Tycetto how very stupid

  • @Tycetto lol it's so annoying. I had to watch on mute.

  • i should be going to bed but i'm looking at this shit 0_0

  • not a hobbit house. Maybe you could call it a tube Lodge. Or maybe a living cylinder.

  • you need to change the music for this video man. good idea the video was alright but you still should change up the background track. no hard feelings.......

  • warm and cozy? but no wood stove? where's the warmth coming from? also, i can see this being used in more of a maritime setting, like a lifeboat, this thing floats right?

  • Great choice of song man.

  • More like a midget house.

  • I watched Lord of the Rings .... this looks nothing like the hobbit houses!!!

  • over-priced,under spaced chicken coop...pretty much sums it up. i was looking at "through the window" video and other berm houses and came across this marketed chicken coop scam..you could build much better,for much less.."ergo"

    a rip-off to an actual thinking adult..

  • Termites.

  • @stevedim,thank you I think it is so very cute and prefect for a weekend get away I could easily see that at the lake

  • put a product onto the Internet and risk being attacked by trolls.

  • As a sailor in the USN for 10 years, and having successfully adapted to small spaces...I find this particular small space well designed and well done. It may look a little austere at first, but remember that they're presented in minimalist form because they're

    A) For sale,

    and

    B) Meant for temporary lodging,

    ergo:

    Any comments displaying shallow, unthinking behavior and disrespectful bullying comments will be ignored by Real Adults, who recognize that it takes a certain amount of courage to

  • 400,328 visits to a Hobbit House. Could it be a manufactured home a person could relocate the structure?

  • have you tho't about modular add-ons(linear )

  • I'm really diggin' all this small architecture. Almost makes me want to get into the biz myself and design a few things. lol

  • its actually patterned after a gypsey caravan

  • Here's a tip donkeykonga527. Don't say F*** unless you really need to. Got it?

  • @lizzadoggy100 Here's a tip. People dont have to get your permission to speak their minds.

  • how the fuck is this a hobbit house?

  • Are Hobbits playing the Music?

  • This is a nice job, Great Imagination, Good workmanship.

    Too bad you got all the assholes looking at it....

    That would be great on a large open boat hull or raft, Mount it on a flat bed trailer for a weekend camper.....You could always put an addition on it with what ever you wanted

    5 stars

  • Is this thing a claustrophobia test cell? I think prisoners get more room than this by law. Sure hope all the occupants have taken showers before piling in there for the night.

  • it needs to be burried inside a small hill like a real hobbit's home. And that is sooo cool, imagine fkin bitches in that thing, girls would want MOAR!!! cuz it's epic... epic house is epic.

  • wut..

    everything about this title is so wrong

    a hobbit HOLE is supposed to be INSIDE the hill, with round doors & windows

    This is just a big, long wooden barrel with some bits in it

  • @EuroNoobz its a hobbit house for the prairies

  • now im feel jailwood in my house

  • Kids, you do realize that it is more for camping than it is for actually living, right?

  • its so cute you just wanna kick it with a giant foot down a hill.. or fill it with rum for a few years.

  • Hobbits don't live in houses.. they live in holes

  • I like it!!!!

    Looks kinda like a sauna as well...

  • looks like a hollowed tree stump - no kitchen, bathroom, or fireplace

    hopefully, it'll come cheap

  • Here's a tip... don't use the words "hobbit house" to describe this building.

  • @OzDracula well it seemed to work to get almost 1/2 million views hehe

  • @OzDracula The name of the project was "hobbit house".

  • @OzDracula ya a hobbit house is underground with round windows and a round door.

    thats more like a sauna room or something.

  • @OzDracula They prefer to be called "tube trailers".

  • ummmm the round door is where?

  • 4 adults? Or 4 adult hobbits?

  • hobbits don't like sleeping above the ground, that bed is too high for a hobbit, therefore it is not a hobbit hole

  • @tomek123kotek psst Hobbits arent real.

  • @MickScarborough i know, but if youre going to call something a hobbit hole, read lord of the rings and the hobbit first

  • @tomek123kotek oh sh it now i gotta look for @mickscarborough

  • @tomek123kotek geek

  • you need to add some audio commentary and more detailed photos

  • I was actually in one of these at a display. Twelve seconds inside and I wanted to kill everyone around me! Just buy a tent, it's a million times cheaper and more fun!

  • This needs a huge window in the back wall, doubling as a second exit and offering natural light. People that want small camping homes do not want to feel like they're in a hole.

  • @Brillta Then it wouldn't be warm anymore, learn some physics.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • keep the tv thing. if i bought this would be for camping lot or somewhere I would spend all day outside"hopefully"weather permiting as It would be awful to have to spend hours awake in it

  • Hobbit house doors are circular you idiot.

  • not for nothing but if you have a fire at the front door and cant exit that way how do you get out--Beam me up Scotty-just wont do it for you-sorry looks like a fancy casket- no I would not by one-sorry

  • claustrophobic over time

  • Oh... it's a slideshow...

  • I'd be afraid my house would roll away.

  • Looks more like a sauna than a house...

  • Will it float? Seems like it would be good to incorporate into some type of houseboat barge scenario

  • Please get rid of that terrible music, it's like ear cancer

  • Besides a couple bunks,there's nothing inside to make it a workable house.

    It's more like a sauna from what i see of it!

  • @Oldbmwr100rs Great minds! ;-}

  • i think it's hilarious that there is a sakura house ad on here. i stayed in a sakura house and my room made this house look a little bit big. hahahaha

  • I am surprized how people can just live in these places and the authorities let them do it, no rules or regulations to abide. Try Italy! You get inspectors, and if not satisfied with the measurements (23sqm per person minimum) and if you don't qualify they'll send the bulldozers and you can go back to gypsy land :)

  • @aaaarrrgggghh Italy sucks then. Sounds like slavery.

  • @MickScarborough for that it does suck, yeah. What they do is have the rules so when you know someone you can then pay and you can break your rule.

  • I'm not digging it in the least!

  • Too much like being in an MRI machine....sorry.

  • what no round door? what gives?

  • That's gross.

  • DA PROBLEM HERE IS DAT IF UR A FAT FUK IT CAN SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT DA LIVABILITY OF SUCH A HOME. LETS SAY DAT U R A 400 LB IMMENSE FATSO ... HOW R YA SUPPOSED 2 GET OUTA BED AN WALK AROUND WITOUT DIS BUILDING TURNIN INTO 1 OF THOSE HAMSTER WHEEL THINGS AND SINCE UR SOOOO FAT YA GET STUCK IN A PERPETUAL STATE OF SPINNING.

  • @teenw0lf1971 is your penis large enuff you reach your anus? if it is, go fuck yourself bro, im probably older than your gay ass

  • @RL968 heh. dat comment wuz full of anger .. i aint know why u would be gettin mad. anywayz im 40 so maybe ya are older than me but i kinda doubts it ... so until then ima jus refer 2 u as lil fella or maybe jus sports fan.

  • @teenw0lf1971 how about you "refer" to me as dad? LAWL, now leave me alone.

  • @RL968 heh. u aint my pops kiddo .. but yea dis convorsation has run its course so ima put a end 2 it ... dont message me again ok chief?

  • @teenw0lf1971 LAWL, XD STALKER XD

  • @RL968 Are you serious? Why are you arguing with this guy over a 'Hobbit House'? It's obvious teenw0If1971 is either very immature for a 40 yr old, or he's a 10 yr old who gets his kicks off of trolling. Just ignore the little Golem creature and he will eventually vanish away.

  • gosh - a VERY expensive wooden tent.

  • This is NOT a Hobbit house... It is a Hobbit CABIN

  • Very nice, but nothing to do with a Hobbit house (pure marketing) or "a thing of the future" : it's entirely derived form the bow-top vardo (gipsy wagon) wich is a thing of the past and much, much superior in my opinion.

    Gipsy Jackey.

  • These would be great to spend a weekend in.  Not longer though -- too tiny.

  • check out billie blacks kiwi culture show for the real hobbit house,, good day out ,

  • Perfect for bears! They can just roll you down a hill to tenderise you first :D

  • I want this house

  • Tell me about the music...I really need to find out how to change it...or even better delete this old slideshow. I made it and it drives me crazy....SORRY.

  • the music makes me want to stab a hobbit.

  • Doing the West highland way,the most memorable and attractive thing about any of the Campsites I've ever seen was the hobbit houses in Kinloch Leven.Reason why-They are unusual,Attractive and when u'v had a hard day walking the last thing u want to be doing it pitching a tent.Especially in rain.U can get ur head down 4 the night comfortably.Plus tv and microwave.Comfortable at a cheap price.All camp sites should have 1 for the experience. The hobbit house is defo a thing of the future luv it!!

  • Queria saber de ONDE vem toda essa madeira !!!!!!!!!!

  • If this house is a rockin...it's probably a rollin!

  • Nice to see that they make LOTR themed coffins!

  • looks like sauna room

  • please speed this video up a bit or say sth. this is just torture. and it feels like being in a wooden box, not very pleasant. last but not least: 4 people?! what?! that's your quality of life down the drain just there

  • looks like a rape dungeon

  • im claustophobic i wouldnt stay in there

  • Can you please tell me what song this is playing? :)

  • Shipping container houses are a lot better for the environment and more economical than this.

  • @vothry thats so narrow minded. what u would rather recycle all our SHIPPING CONTAINERS? then what will u put ur bananas in ? u can buy one of these but dont boast its ecological benefits and jump in ur car. its not a fad its our world. this is a great product

  • no round door? send it back

  • Looks like a little empty toilet paper roll house...

  • @pukeluke2020 LOL..so funny! hahaha

  • I once saw a big house that was in a hillside. The occupants ended up getting very sick over something that's in the hillside..................

  • Nice music! Love it!

  • My precious.....

  • YES it's a great idea to help the dislocated in tohoku earthquake  exc.ysmr.com/top_e/a

  • Couldn't possibly be more underwhelmed.

  • Very Cool!

  • Was waiting for Cody Lundin to come walking out.

    after all he is a hobbit on steroids.

  • It's a Gypsie wagon without the horse or wheels

  • @briquetaverne Keep an eye on our website as we are doing 2 wagons next month. Steve

  • KILL THAT DAMN FLUTE............. love the shelter!

  • Cool for a kids bed room.

  • like a tomb

  • Hobbits have Round doors, nuff' said....

  • @thebarathrumm If I could get double-glazed round doors, I would fit them. Everything's a compromise.

  • man it begs the question why?...i would do a A frame instead..it just makes way more sense then this..by the way i have been in carpentry in the field built many homes and stuff such as this, and A frame truly is the way..for many reasons i can even begin to fit here..and they can be built to any scale, and have a bedroom off any main floor...feel me..seems the shingle's should have went down further as well.one thing for sure it would with stand some wind..lol.

  • @ltuomela Hi, If we did an A frame structure, it would be just like everything else. It was the challenge of the shape that makes us build these. Also, as they are built as campers shelters, we felt that 16ft x 8 ft was plenty large enough. Steve

  • @stevemillardlm but see there is a reason for that...cause it works...ya think this hasn't been tried?..i would be shocked if anyone in the states bought one..at anyrate, bet its a fun project.. still think in time you would have a water problem just by imagining how it would run down the roof to the base..not piratical living space at all.and camper? what ya mean? you have a crane to load it..haha..man get outta here...Steve...

  • So here in the U.S., instead of trailer parks we can have Hobbit parks. That way I can have Bilbo Baggins as my neighbor. :D

  • it looks like a house that would float

  • @TreyOConner Yeah! put some paddles on the exterior and couple of human hamsters could spin it around the world!

  • welcome to the CAT scan?

  • beautiful wood working....looks like it could double as a sauna!

  • perfect for alcoolized!

    perfetta per un alcoolizzato!

  • Dont you waste alot of space because of the pipe form???

  • @poormansrichheart

    Not at all. The space below the single bunks would be dead space anyhow, and below the rear bunk is all storage.

    All the other stuff can be seen at the microlodge website.

    Steve

  • smokin

  • now just carve a giant hole in a tree, and plug up the hole with this house and there you go! a perfect hobbit house in a sunny valley.
