城下町長屋　貸切　ゲストハウスDAIJI 連泊割

伊賀上野に移住して数年。住宅街育ちの私には城下町での暮らしは新鮮でした。昔ながらの町並み、名水があるこの土地は、夏は暑く、冬は寒い。でもだから米、野菜、肉も美味しい。自然が残る地域は沢山ありますが、古い町並みがそのまま残る地域は少ない。この町並みを残したい。そのためにたくさんの人にどこか懐かしい暮らし、文化を体験してもらいたい。その場所として、先祖が残した長屋をリノベーションし、途絶えた醤油屋の屋号「大治」としてオープンしました。ぜひ一度お越しください。 Stay in a beautifully renovated traditional Japanese wooden house with tatami flooring and futons, plus modern facilities for self-catering, within easy reach of Kyoto and Osaka airport. 添付ファイル エリア
