The Hobbiton Movie Set Day Tour - From Auckland
Kingsland is full of character with interesting olde worlde shops, cafes, bars and pubs. Sitting in the cafe, you could imagine that you had gone back in time. Our retail discovery was a Made in New Zealand shop called Mixt Art & Design which has some very unique products.
