川辺の一軒宿 Togu tsubakiyama

We have set check-out for 2:00 p.m. so that you can enjoy a relaxing stay. Located on a stone embankment where two rivers converge, this renovated old house on a wooded property is a private accommodation for rent. There are no buildings in sight, you can enjoy the sound of the river, the sound of birds, and a sense of unity with nature, and the water is spring water (water quality has been inspected). Depending on the season, people come to the river next to the inn to play in the river or head to the Kappa Falls. If the weather is nice, you can enjoy playing in the river, as well as a BBQ or campfire (depending on the season and weather, this may not be possible) using the ingredients you bring. (Please be careful when handling fire.) Please rest assured that cooking utensils, a microwave and tableware are also provided. If you walk upstream along the riverside path, you will find the Kappa Falls about 150 metres ahead. Please make sure to prepare food and drinks, such as dinner, before check-in.(It takes about 20 minutes by car to the supermarket) The last 400m to the accommodation is narrow and difficult to see, Once you arrive at "Camu Tsubaki-yama", we will be happy to show you around.

15 minutes from Aso-Kumamoto Airport / Mountain hideaway / Entire building for rent / Over 120㎡ 3-bedroom, 3LDK / Functional layout

MACOMO is named after "Makomo (true bamboo)". It is a plant of the Poaceae family that grows in colonies along the water's edge and is also called "Makomodake". Because it has a purifying effect on soil and water, it has been called "the grass where the gods dwell" and "the grass of fate" since ancient times, and is considered a sacred plant. It is used as a mat (mushiro) and a tool for purification in Shinto rituals such as at Izumo Taisha Shrine. We hope you have a pleasant trip to this inn. When you pass through the tunnel of autumn leaves (maple), the inn surrounded by trees appears, and the surroundings are very quiet. It is an area where birds (woodpeckers, cuckoos, thrushes, etc.) and animals (flying foxes, foxes, deer, hares, etc.) coexist and thrive. Please forget your daily worries and relax so that the birds are not startled. The tap water at Macomo comes from the beautiful water source of Shioi Shrine. The water is so popular that locals come to draw it, and you can use it safely for cooking and bathing, as well as drinking. Feel the abundance of nature! Once you arrive, refresh yourself with a walk in the woods or dinner using water from Shioi Shrine. Have a nice stay!
