Description

Relaxing Nakahechi Guest House

GUEST HOUSE KUMANOYASAI is a cozy, private rental house in Kawai, Nakahechi, ~40 minutes down-hill walking on a paved road from Takahara. It is located in the river valley settlement, while Takahara is on the ridge above.

NOTE: This accommodation is not in Takahara settlement proper and does not provide shuttle service from Takahara to the lodging on the day of check-in. You will need to make your own way there, so if you are walking from Takijiri-oji to Takahara on the Kumano Kodo, you will need to add ~40 more minutes of walking to reach the lodging. So it is essential to plan your walk properly to arrive by check-in time.

The owner, who moved from Tokyo to enjoy the nature and quiet of Kumano, was drawn to the peaceful location. As the house is located on a hill surrounded by nature, guests can enjoy a quiet, relaxing stay. The owner provides healthy homemade meals using locally grown produce. An option is to have breakfast at the owner’s KUMANOYASAI café in Chikatsuyu, which includes delicious bagels made with natural yeast, a popular menu item. A “no meals” plan is also available, but please consider the healthy, tasty breakfast option.

Because GUEST HOUSE KUMANOYASAI is limited to one group per day, it is perfect for small, private groups.

※ Strict Check-in policy. Must check-in by 18:00 at the very latest.
