Holiday houses in Kusatsu

Retro-modern space created by renovating an old house

　The stylish space created by the renovation of the old house is fashionable and has a certain nostalgic charm.It is located in a quiet area close to the Shiga Prefectural Government and with Lake Biwa just a short distance away.In a spacious area where the walls and sliding doors have been removed, family and friends can gather and relax for the first time in a long while.There are also spots here and there where you can get away from the crowds and reflect on yourself in front of the earthen walls and gardens. 　My grandparents built this house with the help of a carpenter at the time. Now, their granddaughters, who have become architects, have joined forces with today's carpenters to breathe new life into it.We carefully revived the old, discussing the interesting interplay between ideals and reality, rationality and waste, and consulting with funding.I think you can sense this spirit in the mismatched tableware that is still usable and the cushions with varying thicknesses.Things speak to us because they can do so without constraint. 　There is also an indoor tiled bath, but there is a public bath with a sauna nearby.The small coffee stand at the entrance serves breakfast and lunch from 10:00 to 15:00 on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays.Guests staying at the hotel can also use it.
