We are taking bookings from April 2017. This is a renovated 150 year old farmhouse located at the base of Mount Madarao and backing directly onto the Chikuma River. The great thing about Nagano Farmstay is that you get the whole property and facilities to yourself, with your friends and family! So it is perfect for families who are travelling to stay for a few days, or even for longer periods to use as a base to tour Nagano and the rest of Japan. Ask us about discounts for long stays! Nagano Farmstay has a wood fire stove to keep warm and relax by in colder weather. There are three rooms with tatami mats and one western style bedroom, with a queen size bed. Sleeping for six is provided in the tatami rooms on futons. There is also a couch and fold out sofa bed. There is a bathroom with shower and bath, but also a beautiful public hot spring about 3 km away (Momijiso Onsen). Also the amazing Shibuonsen hot spring town is only 25 minutes away by car. The house has a large renovated dining room and dining table that is the at the center of the house for meals and entertaining. The house can accommodate 6 people comfortably, but more can stay if required.
Welcome, I'm Mayuko and I was born and bred in Nagano and live here with my family. I have also lived in Australia for over 10 years, where I worked as a chef and had my own catering business. I really want to show visitors the beauty of Nagano and am happy to help translate to help people experience authentic life in country Japan. I love travelling and my favourite places to visit are India, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. I also love gardening, massage and snowboarding. Come and stay with us and enjoy life in rural Nagano.
The property is located on a scenic part of the Chikuma river and surrounded by a country garden with a fire pit, vegetable garden and BBQ area. A BBQ and wood chip smoker is available to use. Two mountain bikes are also provided for guest use and are excellent for touring around the local area. It is close to a number of world class ski resorts, including Shigakogen, which is the largest ski area in Asia! Nozawaonsen Ski Resort is also only around 30 minutes drive away. There are also golf courses, including Madarao Kogen Country Club, which is 5 minutes drive away. Nagano Farmstay is also close to the famous Jigokudani Monkey Park, where the Japanese macaque monkeys bathe in natural hot springs. Near to the monkey park is the traditional hot spring town of Shibuonsen. We are also only 15 minutes from the historic town of Obuse. There is also the Joshin-etsu Kogen national park in Shigakogen and many other mountains close by for hiking, including Mount Madarao, which is an easy 15 minute drive away. High quality tennis courts are also close by for tennis. There are two convenience stores within 2 kilometers for buying supplies. Overall it is a fantastic place to relax.
