Tob and Yumi are very helpful and go out of their way to make it a great stay.

Tobu-san and Yumi-san were exceptional hosts! We had the most amazing time staying at Tob’s house, we didn’t want to leave and were quite sad when we finally had to say goodbye! We’d highly recommend staying here for authentic Japanese hospitality, nothing was too hard for them and they always went above and beyond to make sure we were looked after - Yumi is an amazing cook and Tobu treats you like you are a part of their family! We’ll definitely be back. ありがとうございましたとぶさんとゆみさん。またね！

Had a wonderful 4 nights at tobs house. Tob and yumi were the most lovely hosts and have such a beautiful home. Easy to walk to everywhere in the village but tob will drive you to the lifts and bring you home when ready . Food in the restaurant was delicious. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay will definitely be back 😊

The food, atmosphere, hospitality and warm rooms were all excellent. Tob and his family were so hospitable and friendly, they went above and beyond to ensure everyone was comfortable. Umi's food was so delicious, I always looked forward to dinner. All the rooms were warm and very clean. Tob was beyond amazing, he helped me orgainse skiing lessons and also drove guests to and from the ski field everyday. I will not hesitate to stay at Tob's House when I return to Madarao.

There were many things we liked! Tob-san and Yumi-san were very friendly, informative and helpful. We felt very welcomed in their house. The dinners and breakfasts were not only delicious, each meal comprised many dishes. We had 2 dinners and 2 breakfasts and they were all different, all delicious and lovingly prepared. There were free drinks and snacks too. The place was very clean and warm. Our room had 3 single beds for the two of us and the window opens up to the winter view outside. The bathroom with the communal bathtub was spotless and inviting. We could get our ski pass and ski rental from Tob-san at discounted prices. Since we had a car, we didn't get Tob-san to drive us to and from the ski resort but on the first day, he kindly showed us the way to the ski resort, which was less than 10 min away. We highly recommend this place and are thinking of bringing our children there next year.

Tob is the perfect balance: an attentive host whilst allowing privacy. It seems nothing is too much trouble. He even has some large size equipment available for hire at very reasonable rates and discounted lift tickets. Breakfast is filling and suits western tastes too.

Tob’s house was the highlight of our trip to Japan. Tob goes above and beyond to make your trip amazing. Tob’s house has everything you need and is very comfortable. Tob droves you to the ski resort which is only a short distance away and makes sure your trip runs smoothly. We will definitely be back to Tob’s house again! Great breakfast and dinner.

Hosts are the best in Japan. Tob does his best to make sure your the first on the lifts. Especially after 60cm overnight.
