Thank you for visiting our page. Guesthouse En is located in a small village and it’s really countryside of Japan. We are not such a famous place like big tourist places BUT we have pastoral landscapes, calm and warm atmosphere at the village. It must be totally different to your country. Also you can enjoy cycling around Lake Biwa which is the biggest lake in Japan. Many guests cycle to the lake by free-rental-bicycles. It’s only 1 km away from our guesthouse. Or you can go to the castle town area to see the traditional Japanese buildings by about 20 minute-ride from here. We would like you to enjoy our guesthouse and relax as your home, so we accept one group a day. It’s a private home for you! It would be perfect for a big family, If you’d like to find real Japan, why don’t you come and stay at Guesthouse En?
