“Good experience in old Japanese home”

Back to nature, property is an old house of more than 150 years old, good experience in an old Japanese country home. The lady manager abled to communicate well in English. 2 bicycles was provided for travel during the stay. We took the half board option and were satisfied with both the dinner and breakfast prepared. The was a koi pond behind the house. Small heater is provided. Hot water was available

“Fantastic , quiet stay in a rural area of Japan.I loved the location and the hosptality”

This stay was a highlight of my time in Japan. If you are looking for a quiet , remote stay in a wonderful old property this location is highly recommended. I took advantage of a breakfast/dinner meal plan and the food was excellent. The property is wonderfully managed and I intend to return in the Autumn.

The owner was very kind and very helpful.

“Definitely deserved a second visit”

Everything is perfect, and the host is very friendly and approachable. She picked me up when I arrived the place and drove me around to see the sea of cloud. The traditional house of onyundani was so peaceful and I have peace during my stay. The food prepared by the host was so good.

“Superb stay in the mountains!”

Very authentic traditional home in the Takashima mountains. Really accommodating innkeeper that put a lot of care and love into the meals prepared. Serene and quiet place.

“Traditional Japanese cabin with a zen garden”

It’s a traditional Japanese cabin in the mountains. The shoji screens and the zen garden made it a really relaxing and cozy visit. One of my favorite accommodations through my journey in Japan. They have WiFi, and a modern toilet. The kitchen is a bit old and not up to modern standards but it works just fine. If you want a place away from the bustling cities, and really want to relax and also get a feel for an authentic Japanese cabin I can highly recommend it. Word of advice is to get food before you arrive as it is far from any stores, but I was informed of this before arrival so I had time to plan. The hostess was super friendly and very helpful It’s an old cabin and it shows, don’t expect a newly renovated house, but it gave it an authentic feeling. There’s also no AC, but with it being in the mountains and the shoji screens it didn’t get too hot at night. Also the insects make a lot of noise Wish I stayed more than one night

“Everything is over expectations. It' s good for relaxation!”

Good Service!!! Good Foods!!! Good Atmosphere!!!

“Very quiet traditional home, very delicious washoku, very friendly owner!”

The unique experience and warm, friendly staff

“An old Japanese house in a beautiful secluded valley”

An old Japanese house in a beautiful secluded valley. The house is really very large, with a large kitchen where it is possible to cook. The surroundings are really beautiful but you have to consider that you are really isolated. Fast wifi, great service, highly recommended if you want to experience a "different" Japan

Very traditional and close to nature. Very lovely and accommodating hostess.

“Very lovely host, cosy traditional Japanese home.”

The host was absolutely amazing. She spoke English well and did everything she could to make sure we had a good comfortable stay. Got the heater going for us, made us a fire, some hot green tea, rugged us up. The house is a very traditional old japanese house, gets cold but plenty of heating to keep us warm. The area is beautiful if you like the country area. Was a very nice contrast to the busy cities. We saw wild monkeys! Make sure you buy all your supplies before heading to the accomodation, there are no shops nearby. The host made us breakfast which was very filling and very very tasty. Thanks again and we hope to see you when we return to Japan.

“Fantastic experience”

Wonderful experience in a traditional house in a deep mountain of Japan. The dinner and breakfast were exceptional, prepared and presented with care and love. We rented a car to get here and visited nearby small towns for shopping. The onsen nearby has good facilities, and the quality of the water was excellent. Strongly recommend if you wish to experience a traditional Japanese living and hospitality.

“Excellent guesthouse for those want to get away from the noise and city life to recharge”

The guesthouse is located around mountains area. Is totally away from the city and facilities. The guesthouse is like traveling back time. Very traditional guesthouse. Fresh air and very quiet surrounding. You can just walk around the area and enjoy the peace. We are even been treated with Purin (プリン) by the host before we said goodbye.

Amazing location far away from away everything, very kind host who provided delicious meals (even vegetarian). Very close to nature... it was my second time and I loved it again.

“come for authentic Japanese experience”

it's a classic old Japanese house with some modern comforts. But you should not expect the same comfort level as in the modern hotel. The house does not hold warmth so it get cold in the morning if it's cold outside. There is a super friendly koi fish just behind the house and my daughter was allowed to play with the chickens. The house has lots of character and tasty breakfast was offered in the morning.

“Remote retreat for hikers/bikers (EN/Veggie possible)”

Beautiful remote and quiet location, English and vegetarian food option was possible and super delicious. Host put a lot of effort and helped a lot.

“Bike packing to Onyu”

Very delicious food and friendly staff. Vegetarian option on request. We could relax surrounded by nature and climbed Onyu pass by bicycle before sunset. We really enjoyed our stay!
