Vacation rentals in Higashimuro District

What a beautiful place! We would highly recommend this temple stay. The hosts were responsive and helpful. The experiences offered at the temple, like sutra copying, meditation and the morning porridge teachings were all informative and well done. The temple itself is beautiful and the setting by the river with surrounding gardens is very peaceful and calming. It was easy to get a taxi out to the temple from the Katsuura train station. The accommodations themselves were spacious and i especially loved the beautiful old ink drawings. The mattresses were comfortable and the full kitchen was really handy to have as well. If you have a chance we would highly recommend this experience!

Great location many food options and walkable sightseeing location

Peaceful. No traffic noise. Beautiful walks by the river. Amazing mountains all around. Really great soba restaurant at a nearby town (cheap). Felt like a ghibli movie. 10/10 will stay again. PS the manager mentioned in the description does *not* stay in the house. He lives in another town. The entire property is private for your use. Very private and beautiful place.

Kenji's home was spacious and incredibly clean. It was exactly as described. When we arrived, we met Kenji's mother who showed us how to enter the place. She also walked us through the home and demonstrated how to use the hot water and A/C unit. She was incredibly helpful! My partner and I stayed in Shingu to hike the Koguchi-goe and Ogumotori-goe trails for two days. We started our day by walking to the nearby bus stops and traveling to the trailheads. Because of the home's location, we were also able to finish our days at local restaurants. We plan to stay here again in the future!

Ah we had such a lovely (but short) time at Tomi’s house. It has such a feeling of home and a charm to it! We only stayed one night and so didn’t get to use the outside area or the surroundings sadly but the home itself was just perfect for us. Unlike a lot of air b and b’s which feel like a hotel, this had a real homey feel, with manga books and guitars and a very well stocked kitchen! I’d definitely stay here if you are considering it. Also I must say Tomi was so incredibly kind - gave us so much help with recommendations which were spot on! Thank you

I can’t wait to come again and stay longer. That is all that has to be said about this acommodation. Beautiful location, the space outside and inside is amazing. Felt like at home from the first second I arrived. Also the host is amazing, friendly and very helpful.

It's a very nice house, clean and convenient for who is doing the Kumano Kodo trail. The place is perfect for a short stay, the bus stop is 3min away. But be aware if you're planing to go to town the last bus to get back is at around 17:30. There is a restaurant near by but hours doesn't help much. Motoe has you covered as she has filled the house with snacks and drinks to buy at a reasonable price and also kindly offered to take us to the nearest supermarket. It is a great place to spend the night.

We really enjoyed our Stay. The owners were very kind and even tried to talk in English a little bit. They also recommended a few hiking trails. The house was quite big and everything was clean. The nature around it was beautiful and there even was a river right at the house.

What are great place to relax, nothing but nature - a babbling brook and and super tall tress. Its was the perfect place to end our hike. Lots of amenities in the house and host is a really really nice person. Clean and new.
