古民家を改築した、居心地の良いお宿でした。 チェックインの時間に行くと、お宿のご主人と奥さんが笑顔で出迎えてくださいました。 民泊の利用は初めてだったので、子どもたちの反応が気になりましたが、親の心配なんて何処吹く風。まるで親戚の家にでも遊びにきたかのように、畳の上を走り回ったり、ソファーで寛いだりしていました。 夕飯と朝食付でしたが、食事も本当に美味しかったです。夕飯は岩魚の塩焼き、白ご飯、卵とミョウガのお吸い物、おくらのおひたし、冷奴、きゅうりのおつけものなど、ボリュームもしっかりありました。高菜のおつけものを炒めたものも頂きました。私がよく知っているものとは違っていましたが、しゃきしゃきと歯ごたえも良くて美味しかったです。 朝食は白ご飯、お味噌汁、ベーコンとサラダ、ゆで卵、ヨーグルトでした。 こちらのお宿にはお風呂はありませんが、近場に良い温泉地もあり、全く問題ありませんでした。湧水が豊富にあり、水汲み場もありました。 滞在中は子ども共々、本当にお世話になりました。 子どものワガママも聞いて頂けて有り難かったです。 娘は夕食後と朝食前に、ペットのももちゃんとトトくん(ダックスフント)とお散歩できて、すごく喜んでいました。帰ってからも「元気かな？」と気にしています。 今度はぜひ猪鍋が美味しい時期におじゃまさせて頂きたいと思っています。 本当にオススメのお宿です！

Staying at this place gives more of a farm stay or couchsurfing feel than a guesthouse, as they only seem to have one or a few rooms. The owners take good care of their guests and are very friendly, even though they speak close to no English. The food is delicious! There are multiple dogs and cats living on the property. The house is very old and the temperature inside is almost the same as outside. Beware, there is no heating in the guestrooms nor toilets and temperatures can easily fall down to zero at night, so you will be sleeping under at least 3 blankets. Also, there is no showers or bath on the property. Google gives the wrong location to the place, it is actually not in Kuju town but on the countryside.
