Pure Japanese style traditional House Entire house
This is one of the few remaining traditional Japanese-style buildings in Hiroshima City, built 75 years ago, shortly after the war, in the Shoin-zukuri architectural style.It is a quiet environment just a step away from the main street, and there is a small Japanese-style garden where you can relax. There are also items that can only be found in the Mai House, such as a vase that partially melted from the heat of the Hiroshima atomic bomb on August 6, 1945, and photographs from about 100 years ago. The fixtures and glass panes date back more than 70 years, and the atmosphere of a traditional Japanese house is particularly evident in features such as the two gardens, the alcove, and the study. Currently, these items can only be obtained by placing orders with a limited number of artisans. Of the 5 rooms, 3 are tatami mat rooms, so please lay a futon on the tatami mat when you go to bed. Located in Minami-ku, Hiroshima City, you can get there on a single city train.

Kominka in Miyajima that warms the heart
Guest House Kokoro is located one block from Miyajima's Machiya-dori Street. When you pass through the warm curtain at the entrance, you are guided to the courtyard by stepping stones, with bamboo walls reminiscent of a Kyoto row house restaurant. The courtyard is also beautifully balanced with white marble and gravel, contributing to the calm atmosphere. There are glass doors in the living room that allow you to see the courtyard. The building is only for guests to stay in through the garden, so there is no need to worry about anyone. From the outside, it is an ordinary private house, but when you step inside, it has a different atmosphere, which is part of the charm of the inn. I heard that the previous owner has always loved gardening and had a wide range of hobbies. However, as I mentioned at the beginning, I didn't intend to start an inn at first, so there is no bath facility (there is a shower). However, you can use the nearby inns as an outdoor bath. The first floor is a living room, and the second floor is a two-room Japanese-style bedroom, and up to 6 people can stay comfortably. In the courtyard, there is a white stone character "kokoro" (heart) inscribed in the gravel. It was made by the gardener a long time ago for fun, and it is the origin of the name of the inn. He said he wants to welcome people with all his heart and help them relax and enjoy their stay.

Osamijima, Shimanami Kaido. A large deck with a view of the sea and the sunset. Open-air bath with a view of the sea. Seaside retreat
This accommodation is limited to one group per day and allows you to enjoy the beauty of the many islands in the Seto Inland Sea and the sunset. Designed by the host, an architect who has won numerous awards overseas. Not extraordinary, but a "delicate life" with the theme of enriching everyday life. You can experience that kind of life here. There is a separate indoor bath from the Hinoki bath, but the view of Setouchi and the starry sky from the Goemon bath, heated with firewood, is the best. If you're lucky, you'll see artificial satellites and meteors. The water heated by firewood never gets cold. It warms you from the core of your body. The bedding is specially ordered from a long-established bedding manufacturer in Kyoto, and the bath invites you to relax your body and mind and sleep soundly. Most guests say they sleep well. During the day, you might want to spend some time in the lounge filled with houseplants. Enjoy the sunlight shining through the trees from the skylight. Here, the right answer is to do nothing and just be. How about emptying your mind? If you request at least a week before your stay, we can prepare local food from Oshima Island and seasonal food that we can get through a special route. If you wish, you can also dine at a counter made of pure cedar, similar to a traditional Japanese restaurant.

There is also a quiet beach within walking distance, where the morning sea breeze and the evening light will give you a memorable time.The convenience store is also a short walk away, and it is a few minutes' drive from Omishima IC.
