In the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, as well as "The Hobbit," Hobbit Holes were the residences of Hobbits, usually built into a hillside. They were dry and comfortable and a hillside may have several doors with brass knobs behind which Hobbits dwelled.
The expense would be in hard work rather than cash, although the supports may cost some money. You would need a hill of just the right size and angle, the permission of the landowner, and engineering supervision to make certain your Hobbit Hole was safe and well supported from the danger of collapse. Although Hobbit Holes often had many rooms on one level, it would not be safe nor feasible for you to construct such a dwelling. You would have to be satisfied with a small, carefully constructed single room Hobbit home.

There are many rooms in a hobbit hole. They call them smails and there are rooms for clothes and food. They include normal household rooms, with bathrooms, and nice rounded ceilings. No specific number is mentioned.

A hobbit barrow is referred to as a 'smail.'
THE GREAT holy hole
Bilbo returns to Bag End in Hobbiton in the Shire.
A hobbit-hole, also called smial, is a from of housing used by the hobbits in J.R.R. Tolkien's fiction. It is basically an underground house built in hills, consisting of a long hallway with the rooms branching off to both sides; usually the hallway runs parallel to the shape of the hill so that the rooms on one side of the hallway can have windows. Further characteristics of hobbit architecture are perfectly round doors and windows, tube shaped halls, and building even-floored (meaning no housings with multiple floors/stories). Most hobbits do not live in hobbit-holes but in "normal" houses, which have the same architectural characteristics as the hobbit-holes mentioned above.
Chapter 1 An Unexpected Party In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the ends of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing in it to sit down on or to eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort.
