by far our best accommodation!
We wish we could give a 10-star rating out of 5—everything was absolutely perfect and so welcoming. We won’t soon forget the warm welcome, the kindness, the helpful advice, the comfort of the house, and the simply incredible quality of the meals... Everything was wonderful! A huge THANK YOU to Hiromi and Jon for all their efforts in making our stay unforgettable!

Very fun and entertaining host
Our host Jon picked us up and dropped us off at the trail. The house and rooms were comfortable and clean. The food was excellent and expertly prepared by Hiromi, his wife. Our hosts were very knowledgeable about the area and Kumano Kodo, and gave us suggestions about the trail. We had a great stay with them and it was very nice to talk to them.

Mori Nonaka is a really special place and I was delighted to get to stay here. My room was a large tatami room with beautiful traditional alcoves and ornaments, and a view over beautiful greenery. I loved gazing out over the view, to the sound of birdsong and frogs in the rice fields. My two hosts (an Australian-Japanese couple) were incredibly warm and welcoming, and I loved getting to know them and getting to share our experiences living in Japan and overseas. They messaged me on WhatsApp to offer a lift from wherever I would find convenient, and dropped me at the bus stop early the next day - this was really helpful. The food was absolutely top-notch, and it was no problem that I had requested semi-vegetarian meals. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend it to others. Thank you so much!

We had an excellent time
We had an amazing time in Jon and Hiromi’s house, she is an excellent cook! After a long walk in the first day of our Kumanokodo pilgrimage, Jon picked us up by car to their home where a bucket of hot water and some tea were awaiting. Very nice home and very nice conversation! Thanks a lot

Highlight during our trip - Michelin star quality food
We stayed with Naoko and Koji for one night while walking the Kumano Kodo. Directly after our booking, Naoko reached out to check our meal preferences. This was very thoughtful. And when arriving at the Tsugizakura-oji, Koji was ready to pick us up there. They gave us a very warm welcome and we loved to exchange ideas about nature, culture, art and other topics. We learned some interesting things from them and felt very much at home. The food Naoko prepared was just delicious and very much appreciated after a long hike. Koji took the time to discuss our next day's hike and had some great suggestions. They are very very special people who give their guests a very warm and comfortable stay at their lovely home. We hope to be back one day!
