Monthly Rentals in Kamimura River

Miwa’s place was a beautiful way to experience a traditional Japanese home in the beautiful Kiso valley. Her parents who live close by were extremely helpful and so kind & welcoming to us during our stay. It was a perfect choice. Thank you!

Thomas is a very kind and considerate host. Thanks for the hospitality :)

Amazing experience in Tsumago! This is what you would expect from an old country house in Japan: the beautiful garden, tatami floors, wood ceilings, a cozy wood bathub, an old-fashioned but fully equipped kitchen… All the tradition, the history, the cozyness with todays confort and amenities. It is a bit pricey but take into account that there are not many accomodations in the area. In the end you will get what you pay for; a traditional experience, full confort, a huge house in the middle of a tiny old town among mountains and the river. I fully recommend it, host is always communicative and helpful and this is a experience you will surely remember. The memories we gathered doing origami next to the heater, the cozy living room and relaxing bathub will always be with us.

This was the highlight of our trip! The house was immaculate and beautifully decorated, with many of its historic architectural details thoughtfully preserved. Suzuki-san and his wife have clearly poured their hearts into creating a space that is relaxing and deeply enjoyable. From the curated tea selection, to the extensive vinyl record collection, and the fresh herbs for the outdoor bath—every detail was intentional and welcoming. We stopped here on our way back from Takayama to Tokyo, and it was absolutely worth the detour. Surrounded by nature, the view from the house gave us a peaceful and grounding contrast to the fast pace of the rest of our trip—it was the perfect place to slow down and breathe. The food was the star of the visit; we had the dinner (highly recommended) and breakfast, both of which surpassed many Michelin-starred meals we’ve had. The backdrop of a gorgeous Japanese mountainside made it a special experience, and the warmth and kindness of the hosts made the stay
