Message from the owner

Our agricultural activities include farming rice and cultivating a variety of different fruit trees. We work with suppliers of fruit juices. As we have taken in nursery school children for work experience here, we have been keen to help more people to experience farming and the joy of being close to Nature.

A key feature of this guesthouse is that we offer a wide variety of activities on our experiences menu. The fruit trees we grow here change color according to the season, and require different types of work and upkeep.

Peaches, nashi (Japanese pears), pears, cherries, grapes, apples, figs, ume (Japanese plums), chestnuts, kiwi fruit, prunes, persimmons and plums. There are all sorts of farming activities that you can do all year round, depending on the fruit.

Nearby the guesthouse is a hill with gorgeous views of the Koyoshi River, bustling with “ayu” to catch, Mt. Chokai and the town of Yashima.
