# Shire-Styled Campers This Camping Trailer is Inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's 'The Hobbit' By Alyson Wyers | Published 2013-08-02 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camping-trailer References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2013/08/02/Hobbit-Hole-Camping-Trailer/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed:) This Hobbit hole themed [camping tailer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stockman-products-trekka) will have you feeling like you're vacationing in the [Shire](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shire). The camper was built and designed by redditer samm1t. True to the Tolkien classic, the Shire-like shelter has a rounded top as if it were fit into the side of a hill. It also features a round door with a single door knob in the center. For a more homey touch, samm1t has added a flower box, skylight and window. Like the abodes were styled in Samuel Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, the walls are fashioned in a Tudor-esque style. The Hollywood interpretation of this well-loved adventure came out last year. The second of a three part installation entitled 'The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug' is scheduled to be released on December 11, 2013. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.4/10 - Popularity: 96% | Activity: 88% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Hobbit-inspired Camping:** Opportunity for creating camping trailers and accommodations inspired by the aesthetics of J.R.R.
