one of the highlight of our staying in Japan! The entire cottage at our disposal, amazing view of mountains, and the see on the horizon...birds singing, calmness and super friendly host. We will come back for sure!

View from room and extraordinary position.

The staff was amazing! Extremely nice people, they even bring me food on a rainy day. Took me back to the train station by car, Some of the nicest people i have met here in Japan! The facility is amazing, very clean and a breeze to spend time in! Surrounded by the forest and rice field, a beautiful place to take some time off the city! The beds are comfy and the food was really good :) They left me handwritten notes in french to welcome me and guide me through my stay, definitely one of the nicest stay I've had here! The Owner is extremely friendly and will help you with any trouble. When I arrived i actually got lost in the forest because I had the wrong address, I called them and they immediately helped me find my way to the house, There are guitars, piano, speaker, and anything you'd need to have a good time and stay comfy! There is even a bike you can borrow to go around! Thank you so much for having me there, I would love to come back anytime I can <3 If you are hesitant about coming here, dont think twice, its a no brainer :)

It is an old style house, so as long as you aren't expecting Western/modern comforts, it's fantastic! My daughter called it the Totoro house. You will sleep on Japanese futons that you lay out on the tatami mats - if you've never slept on a futon it might feel uncomfortable/hard compared to Western beds. You will eat sitting on the tatami mats, but there are a couple of small Western chairs if sitting on the floor is difficut. The bathroom is Japanese style with the toilet in one section, the sink/vanity in a second section and the shower with separate furo (deep bathtub for soaking after washing in the shower) in the third section. It was not the most modern but all clean and more spacious than the Western hotel bathrooms we had other parts of Japan! There is a TV, wifi worked great and a bluetooth speaker to play music. There aren't a lot of "tourist" attractions nearby but it you want serenity this hits the spot - a few steps away has you walking among farming fields and the house is also close to the forest with a little stream running along side the road making for a peaceful but easy walk up the mountain. The gohan (rice) cooked in the old style stove was the best we ate our entire trip! Wish we had bought some of the local rice. It can get a little smoky when dinner is being cooked but my mild asthma was fine. The host, Hiro, is amazing, super accomodating and friendly, he introduced us to his shiba inu (dog) and his duck, and even though we didn't ask ahead, he prepped for us to make tofu - this experience was an extra fee but totally worth it! During the winter you can also request mochitsuki (pounding rice into mochi) and summer/fall you can make noodles (can't remember if he said soba, ramen or udon). Hiro's English is limited, but he's so engaging, we asked him to eat dinner with us and my daughter loved that...he has such good energy!

Cosy accommodation with delicious food and a helpful host. I was especially impressed with how organised the check-in and dinner and breakfast services were. 100% recommend to hikers and non-hikers alike

Relaxation heaven. You get a private bath made up for you at a chosen time. They have a beautiful garden with ducks and a cute dog. Island vibes with beautiful natural sounds all around. Massage chair, shakti mats. This owner had really thought about things! I feel restored!

Great location, service, and facilities.

Splendid location, good onsen, excellent food
