This farmhouse guest house (simple lodging, no meals provided) accepts reservations for one couple per day. The building is about 30 years old, but visitors can experience growing and harvesting seasonal vegetables. The living room has a hori-kotatsu (sunken kotatsu), and the first floor, where you can relax with no water, is almost entirely reserved for private use. Azumino is located at the crossroads of Kanto and Hakuba/Shiga Kogen, and can be used as a base for sightseeing in Nagano Prefecture. The facility provides a comfortable Internet environment. There is also an attached coworking space (for a fee), which can be used for workcations, resort telework, development camps, etc. It is also used for parties and events, to talk to convalescents, and as a comfortable base for skiing and snowboarding. This accommodation is licensed under the Ryokan Business Law. There is a bedroom, a Japanese-style room (tatami), a living room, and a kitchen where you can cook your own meals or have house parties. The surrounding area offers a variety of activities such as cycling paths, world irrigation heritage sites, sweet stores, eateries, shopping centers, product stores, Azumino Alps National Park, museums, hot springs, wasabi plantations, running, cycling, MTB courses, and driving, making it ideal for consecutive nights stays. Azumino offers a panoramic view of the countryside and the Northern Alps, as well as a wide range of activities! The nearest train stations are Toyoshina Station and Kashiwayacho Station on the JR Hachiko Line, both about 5 minutes by cab; Hotaka Station on the JR Hachiko Line, about 15 minutes by car; and Azumino Junction on the Nagano Expressway, about 10 minutes by car.
When I was a student, I traveled to Japan on a motorbycycle. I also traveled camping out in the car. I met many people during the trip. Traveling is really fun. I hope you will find it helpful during your stay in Azumino.
In the vicinity, there is a large-scale cycling path (15 km), world irrigation heritage, the best sweets shop in Japan, a popular cheap restaurant using plenty of local ingredients, a shopping center, a local production center, the Alps Azumino National Government Park, various museums, and hot spring facilities , large-scale wasabi farm. From the Kanto area, Azumino becomes a branch point of Hakuba area and Shiga-Kogen area, and there are some guests who travel around Nagano prefecture based on this farmstay.
