Delightful. We had wished there was a location to sit outside and enjoy a cup of tea and melonpan, but we contented ourselves with the concrete ledge of the building. The view was breathtaking!

Traditional house at Koguchi

Very charming traditional Japanese house. Walking distance from Koguchi but you have the chance to be picked up from the owner how was very kind and welcoming. The food was delicious and very different from what we had had before. Thank you for this experience!

A special place!

What a lovely owner, so nice. Great pick up & drop off. Located up the mountains, just a few minutes drive away, in a very remote and peaceful location, with lovely views. Atmospheric. It's a bit more basic than some of the other more expensive places we stayed in - the owner is gradually restoring the whole house - but is excellent value, has a warm and comfortable kitchen/diner, a good bathroom, and we had a brilliant venison hotpot supper, & a good lunch box.

Beautiful authentic stay!

Naoko was the perfect host - she picked us up and dropped us at the bus station, cooked delicious meals and did everything to make us feel welcome. The place is a gorgeous, the bath is great and the surroundings are beautiful and quiet. Loved every aspect of our time here!

Very nice place

The location is a little way off the trail requiring pick up by the host. The place is lovely and the host attentive providing a nice meal, I really loved her lunch box too ! I definitely recommend @koguchi

Home away from home

One of my favourite stays of the whole trip. Naoko-san is the perfect host. She picked me up from the store and I instantly felt at home in the cosy guesthouse she runs. With only two rooms it is intimate and pleasant. Everything is spotlessly clean and it was a very relaxing place to stay. The next morning she drove me in the rain to the starting point of the walk back to Hongu. Can't recommend @koguchi enough. Just loved it.
