Hi, thank you for finding the blue crail. This is a renovated place where Noriyuki Ushima, a western artist who loves the sea and nature of Shimoda, was used as an atelier. It is a great space for those who enjoy a view of Irita Beach, a beach recognized as the highest ranked water quality AA, from a hill, the sound of birds chirping, the sound of the wind, and embracing nature as they are. Forget the daily grind and enjoy a quiet time in the secluded nature, or use it for workation or telework. I look forward to it.
