Pure Japanese architecture/Tatami/Free parking/Bell dumbbell/Martial arts sandbag/Golf/Billiards/BBQ
Stay in this Japanese tatami style, stylish and unique, start a memorable trip. From Kurashiki Station, it is 2.5 km in a straight line.The property is on the very top of the hill.Before it became a B&B, it was a small famous Beqian Yaojia Cun Tong (Bagang Kiln), which still retains the kiln, and the high smoke window is also a scenic line.Going forward is the two small wooden doors close to the side of the road, a bit old.Entering the door and stepping under your feet is the floor before preparation, as it is precious only a small piece of space in front of the door.There is also a corridor in front of the side store and a part of the exterior wall.Because the overall structure is wooden, the doors and windows are also made of quaint kraft paper.The moment you go up the stairs into the room, it's a fluttered tatami scent.Very Japanese style.Dreaming into a different life on a tatami. Let's get to know each other, walk all the way, thank you for meeting, because you, the world has become colorful... With the existence of I Love Kurashiki B&B, I will strive to become that "bridge", connecting friends in and out of different areas in and out of the sea... A short escape from the hustle and bustle, and "hide" in I Love Kurama B&B, enjoy the tranquility of the body and mind, so that the body and mind can be vacated and suspended... If this can be brought to the people here, it will be the "bridge" that people have in their hearts to the passage, and go directly to the other side of the people... Who will be the next group? Is that you? We look forward to hosting🤝 you.... A person who opened a homestay with the dream of inheriting Chinese martial arts dreams.

Shodoshima, 30 seconds to the sea, you can see the sea from any room
This house is built on the quiet seaside in Shodoshima Town. The house was built just for dusk watching the sea and the sunset.Therefore, I apologize for the large number of stairs on the terrace, but I can never call it barrier-free.(I will do my best to help with my luggage, etc.) However, at the end of the high terrace, there is a glittering, calm and beautiful sea in Setouchi, and a kane-colored sunset that changes faces every day. Forget your time and enjoy the extraordinary. *We are currently not allowing pets to stay at the property. Please contact us before booking if you would like to use this service. The interior is accessed by climbing the terrace stairs.It is not handicap accessible. Please be sure to accompany small children or adults when climbing up and down the stairs. Also, on rainy days, there are many stairs, so it may be inconvenient. The road in front of the inn is not paved. Please note that this may be an inconvenience. There is a lot of nature around the inn, so there are definitely insects.Sometimes insects come in together when opening and closing windows and doors.(Especially at night, insects gather in the light of the inn) We are very sorry, but please refrain from staying if you are not good with insects.

AaR Villa Sanuki Tsuda [Setouchi Ocean Front Villa]
"Reset · Reborn · Restart" Described by people overseas as the "Aegean Sea of Japan", "With a beautiful view over a wide area, there is nothing better anywhere in the world" the Seto Inland Sea is so scenic that it is said to be the "Japanese Aegean Sea" by people from overseas.

The Uno port ferry is 3 min by nearby train (14 by EA bike) so we serve as an ideal gateway to the Inland Sea islands, including of course Naoshima, Teshima and Inujima.
