Nordic Mountain Cabin Takashima | Near Lake Biwa, Campfire, Sunset, Stunning Mountain Views
This is a private rental accommodation in a secluded setting surrounded by nature. Time passes slowly, and every moment quietly lingers in my heart. A rural landscape unfolds before your eyes, and beyond it stretches a beautiful view of Mt. Hakkasan. From the deck surrounded by flowers, you can enjoy the beautiful sunset over the mountains. In the evening, gather around the campfire, roast marshmallows, and enjoy a relaxing time under the starry sky. Enjoy a BBQ to the sound of nature. [House Story] This house was born out of my childhood dream of living in a Nordic home.It all started with my longing for a cozy cabin like the ones in stories and for the tranquility of nature. After living in Sweden and New Zealand, I returned to Japan and, together with my husband, Andy, took over a cabin that was scheduled for demolition just one month later. This house was carefully renovated, piece by piece, by my husband and me, like a work of art, and was reborn to harmonize with the Nordic philosophy of cherishing our connection to nature and the beautiful natural environment of this place. 4 km to Lake Biwa There is a convenience store within walking distance A large supermarket is also a 10-minute drive away. Metasekoya is about a 15-minute drive away
