140-year-old farmhouse in Fukui HareHare

This is a farmhouse guest house (limited to one couple per day) renovated by a couple in a 140-year-old kayabuki traditional Japanese house. It took about 2 years to complete the DIY project. Please enjoy country life to the fullest by taking a traditional Goemon bath or harvesting eggs and vegetables! Living with nature. Our inn is an old private house inn where you can experience daily country life in circulation.

If you want to fully enjoy Fukui, staying in the countryside is the best way to do so. The Okuetsu area, including the Kuzuryu River, is a rich region surrounded by mountains and rivers with springs and great nature. I would be happy if you could visit the Dinosaur Museum and enjoy a unique Fukui countryside stay in that area.

In our old houses and villages, there is an infinite margin of "nothing. All that is there is the richness of life that Japan has cherished since ancient times: "the daily routine of living" and "the slow passing of time. The 140-year-old kayabuki traditional house is a symbol of this village and a treasure that has been carefully preserved by the villagers.

We hope you will stay in Yoshimine Village and its old private homes and warm your body and soul from the inside out. We are looking forward to welcoming you with our old kayabuki house, our hot Goemon bath, our 30 chickens running around, and us, the couple! We look forward to your reservation!
