Description from owner
Description
Escape from crowd and noise!
Come and visit Kyoto's mountainous area and stay in a traditional farm house renovated by my had.
This is for booking of an entire house (Not booking of a bedroom).We can only accept one group of guests at a time.
This is just rental house (excluding meal). You can cook at the kitchen or go to restaurant or we have some meal services, then please don't hesitate to ask me about meal.
If you choose to do a tour with us, you can pay by credit card. Depending on how long you stay with us, we can do multiple tours - it’s up to you.
---Things we offer---
We want to make your stay comfortable and entertaining, so we offer some added extras at our place for you to enjoy, including:
・Day tour
・Handy craft experience (Better to book)
・A BBQ set - having an outdoor barbeque with guests is our favorite way of dining
・We have 4 yoga mats so you can enjoy practicing yoga any time you want
・Piano and acoustic guitar - we are music lovers!
・Three dogs
Bernese mountain dog Daizu is very big and calm dog. But he is hip-joint dysplasia, so he can not walk well and his action is rough, sometimes can not control himself. Please forgive him if he will cannon into you.
Our French bulldog Maymay is very cute and she loves meeting new people and making friends.
Youngest big dog is Hachi. He is still puppy. So he is very powerful and still naughty but shy.
・A small farm full of seasonable vegetables, which you can harvest and eat for free
※We set up a cafe that serves light meals. We can enjoy eating there with you. :)
--Interaction with guests--
Basically, I will be with you and help you during your stay in the property. I and my wife Yukako also offer some optional (paid) extras during your stay, such as cooking, trekking. I speak English, thanks to my travel experience around the world.
My hobbies are motorcycle riding, playing with dogs, reading books to compare different cultures and history, sea fishing and making pickles with home-grown vegetables.
We like to get to know our guests and would love to learn about your culture and your life. We love meeting new people and sharing the history of Keihoku with our guests. We are friendly and like to chat. :)
