A hidden retreat in Azumino blending European-style interiors with the charm of a traditional Japanese farmhouse.
Our Property is a hidden retreat located in the village of Azumino, Shinshu, surrounded by natural forests. The area is home to artistic buildings such as museums that harmonize with nature, creating a serene environment. While the exterior features a rustic design reminiscent of traditional Japanese houses, stepping inside reveals a fusion of Western-style interiors inspired by the Meiji era and traditional Japanese Room designs, including features like an irori hearth. In this simple yet nostalgic space filled with the warmth of wood, we believe you will fully experience a sense of comfort and relaxation.
This was our sixth stay, and every time we have enjoyed a fun and comfortable visit. All three private open-air (and semi-open-air) baths are available to use as often as you like. Both dinner and breakfast are generous in portion size, perfectly seasoned, and always leave us completely satisfied.

Our property operates with a maximum of five guest Rooms.
At check-in, we ask guests to sanitize their hands with alcohol and have their temperature taken.

All three baths are private-use baths, eliminating contact with other guests.
In guest Rooms and wash areas, we provide hand soap and alcohol sanitizer, and paper towels are available.
As meals are served in kaiseki style, our staff wear masks and serve food while keeping as much distance from guests as possible.
We frequently disinfect tables, doorknobs, and other high-touch surfaces throughout the property with alcohol sanitizer.
To minimize contact, the staff who interact with guests are kept as consistent and limited as possible.

Introduction of the Accommodation

At our Property, no two Rooms are the same. Relax and unwind in your favorite Room.

There are three types of baths, including an indoor bath made of Hinoki wood and an open-air bath made of Hiba wood. All are family baths, allowing you to relax and enjoy your bath without worrying about your surroundings.

You can enjoy dishes prepared with seasonal premium ingredients and locally sourced vegetables. The dishes are served in carefully selected tableware, such as antique Imari and Karatsu, providing a visual delight.

On the terrace, you can enjoy a pleasant time while experiencing nature through the scent of soil and wood, the chirping of birds, and the whisper of the wind.
