  • Take a Journey to the Real Locations that Inspired Middle-earth

    Although recent films of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit were made in New Zealand, for J.R.R. Tolkien himself, Middle-earth came from the landscape and traditions of his beloved England. Through extensive research, we have identified the locations in this beautiful country which not only inspired Tolkien but which can still inspire us today with their beauty and their unbroken connection to the distant past. Join us for this imaginative, literary pilgrimage to some of the most visually stunning corners of Britain as we explore Tolkien’s works in the places he loved and used to create his masterpieces.
