I went there in the cold winter, but even though it was an old private house, it had good floor heating and air conditioning, so I was able to stay warm and comfortable!Dinner was grilled seafood skewers, but the meal served around the hearth in an old folk house is something special.There was a bonfire space in the garden, courtesan decorations in the room, and an open-air bath and sauna, so we were able to fully enjoy our stay.Since we have a large number of rooms, we would like to invite a large group next time!

The facility was perfect and very nice. There is a sauna and a bonfire space, so there was not enough time.However, it was disappointing that even though it was a private house, the staff were close to each other.I thought it was an unmanned hotel, but from the time I checked in, I was greeted face-to-face with guests, who let me in through the back door, and when I returned from shopping, they were preparing dinner in the room.I could hear the sounds of someone working in the backyard, and I was suddenly in the kitchen in the morning, so I was restless all the time. This is a female guest who uses the sauna, takes a bath, and changes clothes, so I felt uneasy if a male staff member was in the room without permission.I wanted to enjoy a private space by renting it out, but I felt like I didn't know when someone would come in, which cut my enjoyment in half, so I'm giving this rating.The staff was kind and the accommodation was very nice, so I hope things will improve.

This is a hotel that can be rented as a whole, combining the warmth of an old folk house with the convenience of the latest facilities. It's larger than it looks, with 4 Japanese-style rooms, 1 living room, a private cypress bath, a barrel sauna, and 2 toilets in the backyard. We are renovating an old house, and with the dirt floor, floor heating, and pellet stove, it is still warm even in the middle of winter. High-speed Wi-Fi is also available, so you can feel completely at home in a luxury hotel. The dirt floor is equipped with decorative items such as Japanese umbrellas, swords, and balls, as well as lighting for photography, so it is recommended for those who want to take Japanese-style photos as souvenirs. You can also use your own fireworks in the garden if you bring a bonfire with you. Dinner is robatayaki using the irori hearth, where the best ingredients are grilled over charcoal for a delicious taste. The charred rice cooked in a pot is exquisite. There is a nice kitchen in the living room, so I think it would be fun to stay overnight and cook together.A staff member will accompany you during your stay, and I felt that their hospitality was even more wonderful than the perfect facilities. 5 stars is not enough.There are no notable sightseeing spots nearby, but it's about an hour from the city center, so I think it's better to come here as your destination. It takes about 30 minutes by train to Narita Airport, so it is also recommended for people from overseas.For detailed reviews of actual experiences, please visit the blog.➡︎Blog link from profile page!

We stayed here at the end of the year with a family of 9 people from 3 generations.I was looking for a place to stay with a large group and found this inn.Even though the house was in the middle of winter, it was warm and comfortable.Eating around the hearth was fun and everything was delicious! Especially the hot pot was the best!The children were fascinated by the bonfire, which they don't usually get to do, and they also enjoyed fireworks and roasting marshmallows.The staff were very kind and kind to the children, and they did everything they could to make us feel comfortable!I enjoyed it so much that in the end I didn't want to go back and wanted to live here!I want to repeat!

I stayed for one night during the holidays. So far, I have used Shinoya, Okanoya, Naminoya, Tsutanoya, and Orinoya, but this Yunoya has a full-fledged sauna, projector equipment, detailed interior, etc. It was very high grade. There are gardens in the front and back, and it's easy to access from the city center, but as soon as you step into the house, you're cut off from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding area, so it was a really nice weekend. The same person who had previously taken care of us at Tsuta no Ie helped us with various things such as robatayaki and bonfires, and the children were very happy. I would like to use it again!

I stayed here with my 4 year old and 2 year old children.Even though it's an old private house, it was fully equipped with air-conditioning and heating facilities (with floor heating) and amenities, so I was able to spend a very comfortable stay. In addition to a hair dryer, there is also a hair iron and hair iron, which is helpful. Since we were staying with 6 people, it was nice to have two toilets.Adults enjoyed the sauna and open-air bath, while children enjoyed the bonfire and fireworks in the courtyard.The kitchen was nice as well, so I think I'll stay overnight without meals next time.

I stayed here as a summer vacation trip with my 1 year old child.It takes about 5 minutes by taxi from the nearest station, Katsutadai Station, or about 10 to 15 minutes on foot, so it's easy to access and there are many supermarkets and convenience stores in front of the station, so it's convenient to buy things before heading out!Since it is a rental property, it is perfect for families with children, and they can play freely in the backyard with a bonfire and an open-air bath, which looks like a lot of fun.The facility was very well maintained and there were no amenities, so it was a comfortable stay.We were able to use the sauna as much as we wanted, which was very refreshing, and the meals were explained to us in detail, so we were able to eat our meals slowly without having to use water as a family.I was surprised but also very grateful that they provided baby soap, room wear, sandals, tableware, etc. for the children.My family and I are talking about staying again next year. Thank you for the very enjoyable time ◎

I went to Ruufu, a newly opened old folk house. A quaint entrance that suddenly appears in the city. The interior has a calm atmosphere and elegant colors. The interior design seems especially suitable for a group of women.There is also a sauna and open-air bath, perfect for relaxing at the inn. This time I went golfing and ate before checking in, but there are restaurants and supermarkets nearby, so it might be nice to buy your favorite ingredients and cook in the hearth.I would also like to use it for golf.
