How to unlock the Stone Giant Stomp achievement in LEGO The Hobbit - Definitive Guide
After not wanting to repeat the convoluted process of using Bilbo/slingshot character every time to reach the Bonus level, I opted to fast travel to Thranduil's Kingdom (directly west from Lake-town) and run through. This leads to a gate and path that goes up the mountain and directly to the Bonus Level.
You play as a stone giant and the goal is to collect 1 million studs in 5 minutes; this can be done easily in around 2 minutes however. Just stomp over trees and press X to swipe any buildings in your way to collect the studs. You can jump using A if you get slightly stuck on any buildings you smash (I did on a couple of occasions).
The achievement unlocks after the level has been completed.
EDIT: You can also replay this level if you need an easy 1 million stud boost to purchase characters/red bricks with.
Edit: I managed to get it to unlock after the fourth attempt (including once in co-op), then Inside Information (co-op), then looking at the game's achievements. Unfortunately, I'm still missing the co-op achievement. Good grief. Some Lego achievements take more work than they're supposed to.
Edit 2: The co-op one just unlocked. WTF?!
The fastest route to reach the bonus level, is by traveling to Erebor from the eagle statue. When you travel to the area, follow the stair path onto the temple. You will then have to climb it. There will be snowmen LEGOs covering a ladder, so break them to climb the first ladder. In the second area, you will need to use Ori and his slingshot ability to build a bridge around the temple. You will also need to use Bilbo and his Ring ability to build the second ladder. Once you climb the temple, climb the zipline to get across to the bonus level.
This level is quite easy and should take you no less than 3 minutes to complete. You will take control of a stone giant and will have to earn 1,000,000 in studs. You will have 5 minutes to break anything in your path. Use to smash LEGOs with your hands, or stomp on LEGOs by moving around. Once you reach a score of 1,000,000, you will complete the level and the trophy will unlock. You will also get to keep the 1,000,000 studs that you've earned in the process.

NOTE: The bonus level is available once you have completed the main story.
The bonus level is located in Erebor. It appears as a Stone Giant icon just south of the second ‘R’ in ‘Erebor’. Fast travel to the Erebor “The Lonely Mountain (South Region)” statue. Open your map and mark the Stone Giant icon as your destination. Travel southwest up a stone wall where you will reach a ladder hidden by snowmen. Break them and climb up. Now you can one of two things, use an elf to reach the top of the tower or use Bilbo (to build a wraith ladder) and Ori (slingshot targets to build platforms) to find a path up. Regardless of which option you choose, once at the top, move across the tight rope and the entrance to the level is on the ledge.
The goal of the bonus level is to collect 1,000,000 studs before the five minute timer expires. You are playing as a Stone Giant, so just stomp and smash everything possible; there’s more than enough studs available. You should complete this in roughly three minutes.
It is also possible to unlock the “Someone to share in an adventure” co-op achievement. Since this level is very short, plug up another controller before starting the level and just let it idle as you collect your studs. You will receive both achievements when you are done.
