excellent service and food

Service and food were excellent. The owners were very kind and we were able to check-in at arrival (13.30). I would strongly recommended this accomodation.

Would give 6 stars if we could!

Shin and his wife made us very welcome. The 'Annexe' is actually a stand alone delightful, modern Japanese house. Charmingly decorated, warm and cosy. Shin clearly delights in cooking for guests and his meals were a highlight of our trip. The house is also very easy to find if walking the Kodo from Tenabe.

Amazing hospitality!

This house is one-party per night type of accommodation, so since I was by myself, I had the entire property to myself, truly a luxury! The place is so cozy, filled with memorabilia from the host's travels. They received me so warmly and gave me such good meals (the best bento on all of my kodo days!) They spent so much time calling people to figure out bus schedules for me the next day, truly the best hospitality I've ever experienced.

Magical stay at Cherry Garden

We were warmly welcomed after a long day of hiking from Takijiri, and enjoyed a cold beverage on the roof deck overlooking town while dinner was being prepared. The hosts could not have been nicer, and the location proximate to Chikatsuyu was a bonus. Thank you for having us and we would love to come back again!

Lovely, restful stay.

This place is in a perfect location for hiking the Kumano Kodo - literally seconds from the trail and 4 mins from the Chikatsuyu bus stop. Our host was very friendly, the annex we stayed in was comfortable, warm, and it was wonderful to have the whole place to ourselves! Dinner was delicious and plentiful. Would have preferred an eastern breakfast to a western one, but it was still very tasty and prepared with a lot of care. A Lovely experience and would recommend to any weary travellers on the Kumano Kodo!
