Family-friendly holiday rentals in Gojo

A welcome house with a starry sky and countryside views

In a beautiful mountain village that changes with the seasons, Would you like to enjoy a peaceful moment that makes you forget your daily worries? At our inn, you can enjoy the starry sky and the peaceful atmosphere. Located on a hill with a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. When I open the window, There, you can see “terrace fields,” a traditional Japanese landscape. We weave poems inspired by the changing seasons. In spring, the rice terrace with water shows the blue sky and the surrounding landscape as if it were a water mirror. In the summer, the fresh green rice flying in the wind plays a cool tone. In autumn, the rice terraces, surrounded by golden rice ears, shine across the entire landscape. In winter, the bundles of straw piled up after the rice harvest create a wintertime scene characteristic of the rice terraces. While I had this stunning borrowed scenery all to myself, Enjoying conversations is also important. It is also a good idea to surrender to a comfortable silence, It's all up to you.

NISHIMURATEI Hanare – A 110-Year-Old Traditional Kominka House for Rent with Kitchen & Dining Area

Hi there,Welcome to the Nishimura Residence.This is Yuta Sugimoto, your host. The Nishimura Residence is a traditional Nara machiya (townhouse) that is over 110 years old.In 2019, I renovated “Grandma's House,” where I spent a lot of time as a child, and opened it as an inn.Since the Nara machiya has been preserved in its original state, it may cause some inconvenience, and it is not a luxurious hotel where everything is provided. 　Instead, I believe there is no better place than Nara-cho to immerse oneself in the “comfortable rustic atmosphere” that permeates the town.We provide books in the room and a vegetarian breakfast in the hope that this environment, away from the hustle and bustle of the station, will help you with “introspection and recovery.”(You can purchase almost all of the books in the room.) 　Please spend this evening listening to your own heart's voice, surrounded by the tranquility of the Nishimura residence and Nara-cho.
