Villa in Kurashiki

Pure Japanese architecture/Tatami/Free parking/Bell dumbbell/Martial arts sandbag/Golf/Billiards/BBQ

Stay in this Japanese tatami style, stylish and unique, start a memorable trip. From Kurashiki Station, it is 2.5 km in a straight line.The property is on the very top of the hill.Before it became a B&B, it was a small famous Beqian Yaojia Cun Tong (Bagang Kiln), which still retains the kiln, and the high smoke window is also a scenic line.Going forward is the two small wooden doors close to the side of the road, a bit old.Entering the door and stepping under your feet is the floor before preparation, as it is precious only a small piece of space in front of the door.There is also a corridor in front of the side store and a part of the exterior wall.Because the overall structure is wooden, the doors and windows are also made of quaint kraft paper.The moment you go up the stairs into the room, it's a fluttered tatami scent.Very Japanese style.Dreaming into a different life on a tatami. Let's get to know each other, walk all the way, thank you for meeting, because you, the world has become colorful... With the existence of I Love Kurashiki B&B, I will strive to become that "bridge", connecting friends in and out of different areas in and out of the sea... A short escape from the hustle and bustle, and "hide" in I Love Kurama B&B, enjoy the tranquility of the body and mind, so that the body and mind can be vacated and suspended... If this can be brought to the people here, it will be the "bridge" that people have in their hearts to the passage, and go directly to the other side of the people... Who will be the next group? Is that you? We look forward to hosting🤝 you.... A person who opened a homestay with the dream of inheriting Chinese martial arts dreams.
