Traditional old private house in Sado | A countryside to be healed by the starry sky of Sado and the red heron Time

This is an old private house in the middle of Sado City, Niigata Prefecture, in the Shinho area of the Kunakun Plain. We renovated a 130-year-old house built in the Meiji era and opened it as an accommodation. A short walk from the inn, you can see the Kunonaka plains with rice fields and the dancing of the red egrets. The owner is a rice farmer, but he runs the Sado Nature School, which navigates the nature of Sado. You can also observe the clear starry sky of Sado while listening to the owner's commentary. Enjoy a relaxing time while enjoying the nature of Sado.
