This is a lovely place, with brilliant staff, and fantastic rooms and food.We were married at Cocon in 2023 and had an amazing time, so we revisited for 3 nights in September 2024.The room we stayed in was beautiful and large, with two beds in the upstairs bedroom (with TV) overlooking the main room, a living room with DVD player, sofas, a table, etc. There is a large tatami room as well with a table if you prefer the Japanese style. The fridge was stocked and replenished daily, as was the coffee. Everything you want is supplied.The bathroom is spacious and has an adjoining shower room with a hot tub bath. You can view the garden from the bath, which is lovely.In addition, the entrance has a small toilet room with luxurious sink, and the corridor to the room (still private for you) backs out onto the beautiful garden. You can open the doors and go out.The food is excellent, and the chef cares so much about making the guests satisfied. He was willing and able to make many adjustments for us, and we appreciated that wholeheartedly. Dining in the private room is special, but dining in the main room with the chef is so interesting and fun. Maybe we preferred that overall. You can really see the love that the chef puts into his job.The staff were wonderful, and we'd consider them as friends. The spoken English was absolutely fine, as there is a fluent English speaker working there. Additionally, the other staff speak english to a very admirable level, even those that claim they can't speak English 😂As a treat, this is a lovely place to stay. Kamakura is also amazing, and there's plenty to see there or in the surrounding area. At Cocon, the only noises you'll hear are the cicada outside. It's so tranquil.I miss Cocon, Hiroshi-san, Maki-san, and all the staff so much already. I hope we can visit again!

I was really impressed by how delicious all the dishes were.The menu seems to change every two months. The atmosphere of the quaint renovated old folk house was nice, and we were treated to warm and wonderful customer service.The 🌻 on the plate was handwritten rather than a pattern on the plate, and it was three-dimensional and vivid, making it one of the most beautiful celebration plates I've ever seen. It was a store that I would definitely want to come back to.Thank you very much 🙇‍♀️✨

I stayed in room 101 and was blown away by the renovated building. The customer service from the landlady and other staff members was also polite, kind, and wonderful. Dinner was served at the counter in a live kitchen style with a heartbeat. I was able to enjoy a very satisfying meal from the chef's tasteful menu. If there is another opportunity, I would like to visit you again. thank you very much.

Lunch at restaurant. The food and service are of high quality, as are the beautifully maintained facilities. The chef is passionate about research and travels all over the country in search of good ingredients, not just local ones, and it's fun just listening to his stories.I used the counter, but in the private room I was able to enjoy the beautifully maintained garden as a borrowed view, which was very luxurious.Lunch can be quite expensive in Kamakura, but considering the cost of maintaining this space and atmosphere, it's understandable.

I've been back several times when the menu changes, and each time I've had something unique and delicious. I also like the location in a quiet residential area.
