Cabin in Takashima
5.0 out of 5 average rating, 32 reviews

Nordic Mountain Cabin Takashima | Near Lake Biwa | Campfire | Sunset | Stunning mountain views

This is a private, entire property for rent in a secluded setting surrounded by nature. Time passes slowly, and every moment remains quietly in my heart. A rural landscape unfolds before your eyes, and beyond it stretches the beautiful view of Mt Hakusan. From the deck surrounded by flowers, you can watch the beautiful sunset as it descends over the mountains. At night, gather around the campfire, roast marshmallows and enjoy a relaxing time under the starry sky. Enjoy a BBQ while listening to the sounds of nature. [House story] This house was born out of a childhood dream of living in a Nordic house.It all started with my longing for a cosy cabin like the ones in stories and for the tranquillity of nature. After living in Sweden and New Zealand, I returned to Japan and, together with my husband Andy, took over a cabin that was due to be demolished just one month later. My husband and I have carefully renovated this house, piece by piece, like a work of art, to create a space where the Nordic philosophy of connecting with nature and the beautiful natural surroundings of this location come together in harmony. 4 km to Lake Biwa There is a convenience store within walking distance A large supermarket is also a 10-minute drive away. About a 15-minute drive to Metasekvoia
