From staying overnight
to living the rural life.

Your stay itself becomes an opportunity
to experience everyday life in Japan.
Choose the stay that
best suits the length and style of your journey.

Staying at
"Ichiju Issai no Yado Chabu Dining"

Chabu Dining is an experiential farm stay that welcomes only one group of guests per day.
During your stay, we share the everyday life we live here in rural Kyoto.
Through a short farm tour, cooking simple Ichiju Issai meals together, and sharing meals around the irori hearth, you can experience a different side of life in Japan.
For stays of two nights or more, you can also choose from our six Shared Rural Life Experiences and explore life in the satoyama more deeply.
