Which is the woodland dell? Is that bit literally chez Beorn?
Are the murksome trees Mirkwood? Is 'Hell' Dol Guldur?

I would insert a comment here, but people are angry at me for it, so I'll just talk about my dog instead.

I'm mostly silent.
I may sound Spanish. But hitch a ride with me And see your problems vanish!

Huan? Huan sounds like a Spanish name, and he helped Luthien.

I thought it up the moment I read your post mentioning your dog.

Last remnant of the fallen line
Lost in the rivers of time A crafty soul, like my grandfather My courage will never falter The one I trusted deceived me Which I could plainly see In secret I used my craft And with that, the die was cast Why did I do this, you ask Knowing it would mean my death? In truth, I was up for this last task Knowing that I'll join my family once I drew my final breath

Celebrimbor?
'Crafty' referring to art. Last of Feanor's line ... unless anyone's seen Maglor lately.

No. You'd have to really stretch those lines to apply them to Gollum.

No, it implies hobbitlike things/priorities.

Hobbit priorities are food and things that grow.

It is a food item, but it doesn't grow. It's made/prepared.

No.
Close, though. I put 'pale' to make the riddle a little harder. I might have said 'white.'

No.
Think of somewhere where there wasn't as much food as a hobbit desired. Not in the Wild.

A tripling of splendour
A tripling of glamour Given with a blessing And received with a stammer.
