Stayed here for climbing Mt. Hakkeigatake. You can rent an old private house. It is clean and the bathroom and toilet have been renovated. Since there was only a liquor store nearby, I asked for just dinner 3 days in advance, and they happily accepted. The homemade miso hotpot, salt-grilled river fish, sashimi konjac, and pickled cucumber and shrimp were both delicious and had a delicate taste. You are allowed to bring in alcohol at dinner. The house we will be staying in has a refrigerator, microwave, electric kettle, and washing machine (we didn't have a lot of detergent in stock, so it's a good idea to bring some detergent with you). Paper cups for gargling, disposable toothbrushes, paper towels for wiping hands, and soap shampoo are provided. Payment can be made by credit card or some barcode payments. There is also WiFi, but I was able to connect to Softbank and Docomo.Although it is difficult to get there by car on rough roads, it is a beautiful place deep in the mountains.When I talked to my host about mountain climbing, he brought out a paperback book of Hisaya Fukada's 100 Famous Mountains, and told me about Tateyama, his hometown, instead of Nara.This is a very comfortable and highly recommended accommodation.

I stayed here on the first day of the November holidays before climbing Mt. Yakkeigatake. It was 5,000 yen for a room without meals and was reserved exclusively. It's also friendly for solo travelers.It was night, so the road to the inn was narrow in some places and scary. I found out that it wasn't that big of a deal compared to National Route 309 the next day ^^. Also, the parking lot is hard to find at first glance.The room is a Japanese-style room, about 6 tatami mats in size, and has a kotatsu (Japanese kotatsu) that makes you feel at peace. There are minimal facilities and amenities such as a yukata, toothbrush, hand towel, tea, electric kettle, electrical outlet, TV, and air conditioner.For dinner, I bought some side dishes at a supermarket in the city. There are no shops near the inn. You can request a microwave to heat it up, but there is no place where you can freely use it. There is also no refrigerator in the room.The bath and toilet are shared. The bath is styled like an ordinary house. The washing area in the bathroom was not clean, but it was not enough to deduct points. I rented it out for myself, but I made sure to lock the door. The futon was clean and warm, and I slept well.The host was kind and made me feel safe. I couldn't ask for anything more.

Renting a whole house without meals for 5,200 yen was a great deal.Although it felt like home, it didn't really feel like it was used, and it felt like I was renting someone else's beautiful house.The bath and washroom also looked like they had been recently renovated, so it was a good experience for me who was thinking about building a new house.It's so spacious that I was able to stay overnight without meals, which I wouldn't be able to do in the city.

It was a nostalgic inn that reminded me of my grandmother's house. If you don't bring snacks and drinks, there won't be any. It was such a peaceful place with fresh air that birds built nests under the eaves every year.

I want to go to the suspension bridge in Tanise (Otaniya) ReservationOn the day of the day, I headed to the suspension bridge with the guidance of the navigation system.It was under construction and the detour route was taking more than twice as long as planned, so I gave up and went elsewhere in a hurry.Check in at the inn on time (18:00)At a good timing, I met the hostess in front of the inn, and she guided me to the parking lot and went straight to my room.I was surprised when I was shown to a detached house because there were two groups today, and I was a little heartbroken.Take a relaxing bath and have dinner without hesitation.The room is guided by the main building and is a private room.As you can see from the recommended ``Miso Nabe'', it's a huge volume.I'm sorry in my heartI had it, and to be honest, it was really delicious and unlike any other miso I've tasted.I wanted you to give me a little bit.Breakfast is like a typical guesthouse.Thank you for your peace of mind [Seki Aji] It was delicious To the husband who came to serve the meal on the wayWhen I told them yesterday that I had given up on the Tanise Suspension Bridge as it was a detour, they immediately contacted the Forestry Association.I was told that I could go even though it was a one-way street, so I was able to go safely.Husband and wifeI had a great holiday.

A guesthouse in Tenkawa village, reached from Mt. Koya through a difficult mountain pass.I came to visit Enku Buddha at Tochio Kannon-do.Meal at the main building"Hanare" is the accommodation room.The room was very cleanThe bathroom and sink are very clean.Even though it's a guesthouse, it's well maintained and I'm very happy to see that I received "hospitality".The meal is chicken miso hotpot with salt-grilled amago.I'm full.You can prepare a lot of vegetables, so just put as much as you can eat into the pot.If you don't do that, you won't be able to reach the final udon noodles.
