    Fantastic 100 y/o guest house, original architecture. The family was very welcoming and even did laundry for us for free. The breakfast kit is fun to make and the guest house is private, which was nice.

    Beautiful traditional home hosted by a lovely kind family. I was served a simple yet generous breakfast, the perfect way to start the day. I wish my stay in this peaceful countryside was longer. There is also an onsen just up the road, that was...

    Een mooi stukje authentiek Japan op ongeveer 2 uur rijden van Osaka. Na de drukte van Osaka kan het contrast niet groter zijn: volkomen rust! Ontzettend lieve hosts die naast de accommodatie wonen met vier kinderen. Ze verbouwen onder andere rijst...

Kamenarien is a traditional Japanese guesthouse where you can experience farm stay and the building is more than 100 years old. We run a small chicken farm with around 100 chickens, and a vegetable field for self sufficiency. During your stay, we can provide some farm experience and local guide (upon request). The main house is adjacent to the guesthouse, so we are always available to provide any assistance while giving privacy for our guests. You can enjoy BBQ using local charcoal in the covered outdoor space. The kitchen is equipped with pots, tableware, and basic seasonings, so you can comfortably prepare your own meals by bringing in your favorite foods. We will provide the traditional Japanese style breakfast on the arriving day, so please cook to enjoy in the next morning at your convenient time. There is only a shower room in the guesthouse, but there is also a hot spring available within walking distance. We welcome families who want to experience countryside lifestyle. Children and pets are welcome too.  It is also a great place to be used as an outdoor base. Feel free enquire about anything, such as mountain information, fishing information, etc.
