Forest Villa Nanso Hill

Cottage at the Entrance to the Forest

A quiet cottage at the entrance to a forest on a hill. There are two horses on the property. (Lala and Niji.) Just beyond the dog-run garden is their paddock, and it was so relaxing to watch them calmly grazing from the living room window. The cottage itself is spacious, with high vaulted ceilings, and we were able to spend a truly restful time. It was very thoughtfully equipped with cooking utensils, amenities, insect repellent, mosquito coils, and more. If you walk up the small path next to the cottage that leads into the woods, you can enjoy a forest stroll. It also seems to be used as a campsite, with well-maintained footing, and in the morning we enjoyed some forest bathing with our dog. Nojimazaki Lighthouse and Okinoshima are also nearby, so we were able to fully enjoy both the sea and the mountains. Next time, we’d love to visit in a season when we can enjoy the wood-burning stove. Thank you very much.
