Unbelievably beautiful location & immaculate room; Simon is a venerable host, who picked us up & dropped us off the next morning for the Kumano Koto trail head. The sunset & sunrise view from the front porch are worth the stay.

This is a very special location that you will never forget, with sunsets and solitude that will bring you to tears. Great for Kumano hikers starting at Takijiri-oji, with shuttle rides available from host. Make sure you pack a dinner + meals for the following day — fridge is available in room as well as hot water, microwave. Incredible service and accommodations!

Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay before starting the Kumano Kodo trail. The places is absolutely beautiful, but the massive plus was Simon who picked us up from the station and dropped us off at the start of the trail! This saved us so much time and helped with our planning. Simon also gave us a free map of the trail which was incredibly helpful! Only slight downside was how thin the walls were to the other bedroom, however for the price this was a very small complaint! Thank you Simon!

Simon and his wife are the best hosts and made sure I started my hike in the best way. Their kindness is priceless.

Simon & Yumiko are wonderful hosts - they go far & beyond what one could expect. Nothing was too much trouble - Simon picking us up & dropping us off... & picking us up & dropping us off again!; Yumiko spending sooo much time to help us plan our Kumano Kodo trek.
They are so committed to providing a homely environment & treated us as friends, not just as 'another couple of guests'. HIGHLY recommended... Thank you for your kindness & generosity, it was much appreciated.... Ian & Iwona
