I stayed there in the middle of summer, and to say the least, it was great!I am very grateful to the president, chef, and children for their hospitality. Thank you very much.However, I feel that all such commonplace comments have already been made by senior guests. .I would like to introduce my slightly unusual way of staying ✨① First, push yourself to the brink of heatstroke while experiencing the power of nature (if you see something that looks good for your body, just go into the air-conditioned store frequently and eat and drink to avoid heatstroke)I went from sweaty parading to power spots in the Takachiho Gorge in the scorching summer to hiking to the sacred rock at the top of Kamishikimi Kumanoza Shrine in Minamiaso.② From the evening, purify and cool your body to the core at the water source in Minamiaso, the land of water.(A 5-minute foot bath at Shirakawa Water Source or Myojin Pond is the best way to cool down; taking a foot bath for more than 5 minutes is too cold and is not recommended.)③ Check in from the wooden deck of the inn, sweaty and covered in water and sand.④Toast with a charcoal BBQ while watching the white dragon soaring majestically in the blue sky over Mt. Nirvana, Gogaku Nirvana, and being captivated by the spectacular view of magic hour, which gradually turns red with the setting sun 🍻⑤The exquisite array of fermented food snacks and sauces prepared by a vegan macrobiotic fermented food professional researcher chef are the ultimate delicacies that will fool your brain, taste buds, and stomach.✨(By the way, if you get tipsy and sleepy, just relax on the polished wooden deck. Then, the power of the starry sky will pour over your whole body.)✨⑥Of course, a wonderful parent-child concert of Shinobue was held as BGM, and it cleansed the ears and the body✨⑦Recover from fatigue by warming your sweaty and smoky body from the core in a wood-burning bath with natural chlorine-free water that smells like cypress♨️⑧I leave my smartphone at home in the living room and have a good night's sleep free of harmful electromagnetic waves in my bedroom surrounded by the purifying power of hemp and plaster.⑨The next morning, while watching the sunrise in the eastern sky 🌄Luxurious morning bath (still at a lukewarm temperature from the residual heat of the firewood ♨️)⑩ Meditate for a while with a woven linen basket on your head (also called just sleeping twice)⑪Enjoy a late breakfast in the living room with a spectacular view✨summaryOnce you stay there, you won't want to go back home. There's no doubt that it's a very dangerous accommodation.Please bring your own toothbrush and pajamas as there are no amenities.Personally, I recommend bringing your favorite linen pajamas, or sleeping naked in total darkness 🛌✨Next time in winter, I think I'll go and enjoy Honma's wood-burning stove🔥❄Or maybe I'll take a leisurely walk through nature in the fall 🎃🍁🍄🌰I'm having trouble because I have more and more difficult but happy worries that I can't decide on. . ✨

I visited in mid-April on a retreat hosted by a friend.This is a very comfortable inn with a lot of attention to detail.Although the entire building is reserved, you will not be left alone, and you will receive hospitality everywhere.They'll even bring you a futon, and if you ask for beer, they'll bring it to you.I won't be home at night, but I live next door, so I don't have to worry if something happens.The natural water in the bath is heated using firewood, so the water is mellow and doesn't get cold.Breakfast is also very carefully prepared and everything is delicious.I'll get another helping of rice too.Above all, the scenery is beautiful and you wake up to bright greenery.Go out on the deck, take some deep breaths, do some exercise, or go for a walk. . . I want to do it naturally.The view of Aso from the living room is exceptional.It's a feast in itself, and is the perfect inn for planning a retreat.If there was one thing that could be improved, it would be that the toilet door is a side-opening glass door, so it makes a surprisingly loud noise when it opens, which bothered me when I was sleeping at night. I thought it would be better to change it to a door.I think I'd like to order dinner here next time!It is also a place I would like to visit again.I want to come with my family next time.

I stayed with my favorite friend for the first time in 20 years. This wonderful inn with a view of the five Aso mountains was handmade by the owner! The food was carefully made with attention to detail, and some of the rooms were made with hemp charcoal, which was very relaxing.The food, which uses lots of local ingredients and homemade fermented seasonings, was very delicious and satisfied both mind and body. What's more, during dinner, the owner's family played the shinobue and Japanese drums.The original music was so wonderful that it brought tears to my eyes. With heartfelt hospitality, this is definitely the place to welcome important guests! This is a wonderful inn that I have decided on (^^)

It was a pleasant place ✨The wood-fired bath, the room with sacred hemp, and the view from the large window were amazing 🌟All the food made by the owner and his wife was delicious! ︎There are picture books and a tatami area, so it looks fun even with small children🧡It's a bit of a problem not being able to make a reservation, but it was an inn I'd recommend to everyone and want to come back to again❣️

First time in Kumamoto, scenery and hospitality beyond my imagination. I'm impressed by everything.The care and attention to detail that goes into each and every meal was delicious.Everything about the ingredients was delicious. The homemade yamnyeon was also great and I even took it as a souvenir.Since it was a limited accommodation and a private space, we were able to talk together until midnight, which was very satisfying. I was able to use the hotel for an event the next day, and I am filled with gratitude for meeting such a wonderful couple who were so comfortable in every way.I would definitely like to visit again. Thank you for the great memories.

I stayed here for 2 nights.Every inch of the space has been carefully designed, the warm hospitality of a wonderful couple, and delicious food that will make your body happy. In the evening, we had a truly luxurious time listening to the children's Japanese drum performance and my wife's flute performance.I was surprised at how cozy the bedroom was. The linen bedding was extremely comfortable and I had a good night's sleep.It was a wonderful stay that truly energized both mind and body, with a spectacular view in the morning and the mountain range that reflected the profile of Nirvana. I would like to take care of you again. thank you very much.
