Ran’ma, its carved patters are elegantly shown by natural light and shadow. The ran’mas installed in Kujaku-no-ma was carved by an artisan in Edo period. The main decorative motifs seen here are orchids, bamboos, chrysanthemums and umes, which form “Shikunshi”. The one in Niwatori-no-ma is decorated with roosters, quails and herons depicted in a wonderfully lifelike way by an artisan in Meiji period.
Our inn retains the charming atmosphere of traditional Japanese architecture and is not equipped for barrier-free access. Elderly guests or those with mobility difficulties may find the stairs and other features challenging.
Surrounding our inn, you will find nostalgic Japanese scenery, and opening the windows may allow insects to enter.
We strive to preserve the tranquil ambiance of this mountain retreat. While this may cause some inconvenience, we kindly ask for your understanding.
