Since our establishment in 1930, many travelers have stayed at our Japanese-style inn in Takachiho, the place known for the legend of "the descent of the gods from heaven." We welcome guests with homemade seasonal cuisine. Takachiho-cho is blessed with scenic beauty such as Takachiho gorge and the 'clouds of sea' in Kunimigaoka, and celebrates its traditions in traditional Yo-kagura court dance and music representing the interactions between gods and human beings. Here people can enjoy a peaceful Japanese traditional lifestyle integrated with Japanese nature.
Yo-kagura court dance and music are traditional performances dedicated to the gods. They are performed in each area from November 22nd to February 10th to celebrate the harvest in autumn and to pray for good harvests for the coming year.
At Takachiho Shrine, Kagura court dance and music are held from 8 o'clock every night throughout the year (admission fee: 500 yen). Free transportation services are available from our inn.
There are 2 public bathhouses near our inn.
Kunimigaoka is accessible in about 10 minutes by car from our inn. The area is located at 513m above sea level. It is known for its magnificent scenery known as the 'sea of clouds,' which can be seen on early, clear, windless mornings from late September to late November when the temperature between morning and daytime differs dramatically.
There are 8 rooms including genuine Japanese style rooms and hybrid Japanese/western style rooms. Each room has fusuma sliding doors with paintings by Hasegawa Kanseki depicting the beautiful nature of Takachiho in different themes providing it the atmosphere of a folk art gallery. All rooms are non-smoking, and have internet access and liquid crystal display TV.
We offer homemade dishes made from local ingredients in season. Our specialty is Takachiho beef mini steak. This teppan-yaki cooking style is done individually right in front of each guest. We use special water purified by bamboo charcoal to maximize the exceptional taste of our ingredients.
Both bath tub and flooring in the bath are made of cypress wood giving it a fresh forest feel.
Although the water does not originate in a hot spring, it does originate in the sacred Tamadare falls in Takachiho gorge. Please enjoy your bath time in sacred water.
