Experience the fragrant aroma of Asamiya tea, shaped by 1,200 years of history, along with the crystal-clear air and soothing moments nurtured by Shigaraki’s rich natural surroundings.

A fully private, whole-house rental Accommodation nestled in nature. In a refined space adorned with Shigaraki ware by local artists and thoughtfully curated interiors, you can step away from everyday life and truly unwind. Enjoy a spacious living room, a relaxing bedroom, and a fully equipped kitchen—comfortable for longer stays as well. On the grounds, you’ll find two unique saunas: Kansai’s first “Earth” sauna built with the earthbag method, and a “Tea” sauna filled with the soothing aroma of Asamiya tea. Surrounded by the gentle air created by natural materials, warm yourself to the core and let your mind deeply relax in pure luxury. Listen to birdsong and rustling trees as you take in local culture and nature’s gifts with all five senses—an experience you can only have here.

Introduction of the Accommodation

Exterior

Earth and tea. A private whole-house stay to unwind in Shigaraki’s culture.

SHIGARAKI SAUNA is a private, one-group-per-day rental Accommodation that reimagines Shigaraki clay and the aroma of Asamiya tea as a “sauna experience.” Take a deep breath in the stillness and feel yourself unwind from the core. Staying here is about spending the night to reset—time to return to that simple luxury.

Earthen Sauna
An earthen sauna connected to the land of Shigaraki

Kansai’s first “earth” sauna built with the earthbag method features a gentle, enveloping warmth. The heat from the wood-fired stove slowly penetrates deep into your body, warming you thoroughly without feeling rushed. With each round of löyly, the air feels different, and you may notice your breathing naturally deepen.

A “Tea Sauna” Unwinding in the Fragrance of Asamiya Tea

The other is an “aroma” sauna where you can enjoy Asamiya tea löyly. The toasty fragrance that rises with the steam guides you to a sense of balance beyond heat alone. If the earthen sauna works on your “core,” the tea sauna gently quiets the “noise in your mind”—a unique way to choose between them, available only at this Accommodation.

Cold plunge and open-air relaxation. Turn your post-sauna “reset” into a lingering afterglow.

After heating up, head to the cold plunge and then relax in the open air. The air of Shigaraki—the temperature of the breeze and the quiet—naturally deepens your sense of balance. Because this is a private rental, you can enjoy it at your own pace, as many times as you like. The stillness of night and the crisp morning air—both become part of the experience.
