Self Catering Accommodation in Kitashiobara

Quite cozy for a cottage. Simple and all complete from kitchenwares to toiletries to futons.

The host was very helpful and responsive throughout our stay, and the location was very central!

The elegance, the style The apartment is so beautiful I would like living there

The house itself is beautiful. It's a traditional Japanese home with a very traditional layout. It's been renovated in such a way that preserves the feeling of a traditional home but with clean and modern materials. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There were so many small amenities in the house that made our stay so comfortable. In fact, this house was so nice that it was difficult to stay in a hotel at our next destination. If you have a car, the location is extremely convenient. I wouldn't recommend it to people who are relying on public transportation. There are grocery stores and restaurants nearby. We saved a lot of money by cooking in the kitchen every day. Basic things like soy sauce and oil were already provided, as were all of the dishes and utensils. Downstairs is a tatami room where you can relax on the floor and eat. It has a great view of the garden. Aside from a table and cushions, there's nothing else in the room so you'll need to bring your own entertainment. We had a little Bluetooth speaker and video games. The shower was massive and the water pressure was great. The towels provided were extremely soft. The beds were comfortable. I stayed in summer, and it was nice and cool in the bedroom. The air conditioner works very well, and we never felt hot even when it was 38 °C outside. I imagine it must be very warm in winter also. As it is a traditional house, only the upstairs bedroom and downstairs tatami/living room have air conditioners. This is completely normal for Japan, but I am writing it here because some visitors from overseas may not realize that central air conditioning is not common.

Really clean comfortable place with friendly staff. It's close to plenty of places to get food.

The house was very charming and cozy. Great authentic Japanese vibe. Owner was great for letting us check in early.

The place was very comfortable, well equipped and suited me very well. It is in a very good location with excellent restaurants in very easy walking distance.

Easy location not far from the castle and other sightseeing spots. It was very convenient to have a parking spot. The house is beautifully done, just bring warm socks if you are coming in winter, it is a old house and the floor is cold. The bathtub was wonderful and the bedroom upstairs beautiful. Our family loved it!

This house was very comfortable and the owners was very helpful. I would strongly recommend for anyone looking for accommodation for a family. It had a fully equipped kitchen and plenty of room to sit and relax .
