Places to go on holiday in Middle-earth
1. Gondolin (very tight security measures, be sure to go during the First Age,
flight by Giant Eagle recommended), possibility of major conflicts-please
check ahead.
2. Umbar (a lovely spot by the sea, beautiful seaside, luxurious accomodation, exotic markets, and one of the Wonders of the World - the architectonic monument to Ar-Pharazon's victory over Mordor)
3. Rivendell (Elrond's house is perfect, whether you like food, or sleep, or work, or story-telling, or singing, or just sitting and thinking best, or a pleasant mixture of them all.)

4. The Glittering Caves of Aglarond (whether you enjoy marveling at one of the wonders of Middle-earth and spelunking it's recesses, traveling to the fabulous Tower of Orthanc and speculating on its legendary construction, rafting down the Adorn and Angren Rivers to explore Andrast-perhaps you'll glimpse a sight of rumored Pukel-men, relaxing atyour simple yet comfortable hostel near Helm's Deep while viewing the reconstructed Battle of Helm's Deep battlefield, or [for the more adventurous] traveling to the Forest of Dimholt to take one...two...three? steps into The Paths of the Dead---if you dare! Yes, Aglarond has it all).
