Stay in a self-contained warehouse in a quiet seaside town. Limited to one group per day, it's a warm, handmade, hideaway-like space.

We renovated a warehouse built during the Meiji era, creating a private space that retains the atmosphere of the time. It is an interesting inn with ingenuity and taste that the owner himself has carefully added. The village where this inn is located, Ishino, is a quiet village with many buildings that were inhabited by the clan during the time when Ishinomiyama was prosperous. Old and magnificent buildings remain, and it has a unique atmosphere that is not a fishing town, despite being on the sea. It is a quaint town sandwiched between the mountains and the sea. There is a 300-year-old house Kodomo Kagura, which has been designated as an intangible cultural property. Located 5 minutes after getting off the Nima/Ishimi Ginzan Interchange on the San'in Expressway, For sightseeing in the area, you can go by car to Ishimi Ginzan in 15 minutes, Onsen-Tsun in 15 minutes, Kotohama in 10 minutes, Nima Sand Museum in 5 minutes, and Sanbe in 40 minutes.
