I used it when visiting Tenga Daibenzaitensha on the first day of my trip to Nara.The mother and father of the guesthouse were very kind and we talked a lot with them. By chance, I found out that I have a connection to my hometown, Soja City, Okayama Prefecture, and I felt a great sense of kinship with him lol.We had breakfast the next day, and it was so delicious that even though I don't usually eat much, I ended up having three bowls of rice!I deeply regret not ordering dinner because I arrived late the previous day...He was very personable and I had a very comfortable time there. When I left, my cat's tummy was so fluffy that I was very satisfied. I will use it again when I come to the area.

I stayed here to visit Omine Hongu Tenkawa Daibenzaitensha. It's a so-called guest house. There are stink bugs and ladybugs in my room, but they don't bother me because it's deep in the mountains. We had a great time talking about many things, including information about hot springs and temples and shrines. Fried oil for dinner is not greasy and refreshing, and both the ingredients and the rice are delicious. The rice was very delicious with the addition of water. I just wish the hostess good health. Nyan also saw me off on the way home. I'll visit you again.

Even though we called suddenly in the evening during the cold season, they provided us with a warm room, a kotatsu, and a hot water bottle, and when we arrived, we felt at ease as if we had come to my grandmother's house.I was also impressed by the delicious breakfast I had after finishing my morning worship at Tenga Shrine! They also cooked enough rice to make rice balls as souvenirs.I would love to come back again.The streets are narrow and dark at night, so we recommend arriving before the sun sets.If you want to experience a real Japanese hospitality, here is the place! The room might be a bit small if you have lot of things but overall it was amazing!!

We stayed here the night of our canyoning tour.I headed there using Google Maps navigation, but it was a little closer to the mountain than the location indicated by the navigation.It is located about 10 meters up a small hill.You can also see it from the location shown on Google Maps.The mom and dad at the guest house were very kind, and when I told them I wanted to do a day camp the next day, they asked me all the questions, thank you very much❗ (It was a fun day camp)A delicious and satisfying dish that lets you fully enjoy the taste of salt-grilled amago, konjac, tofu, and Tenkawa Village.It felt like I went to visit my relatives' newly rebuilt house in the countryside.I definitely want to go again!

The food is delicious, but it's not suitable for traveling alone. No one cares about you at mealtimes. I also feel that the price is reasonable. I don't think I would use it unless I had to pay for the overnight stay. It's a normal house and I can take a hot spring bath, but unfortunately there are no discounts. I probably won't go. But Tenkawa Village is a nice place.

The old couple who run the B&B are thoughtful and enthusiastic, and the food is delicious. They are as happy as a festival😚After the fun, they were worried about the old couple. There was so much oil in the room where we had tempura, so it must be hard to clean😊🙏🙏
