About Zao Sansuien
U pause is located on the grounds of Zao Sansui-en, a villa overlooking the Zao mountain range, and is fully managed for your peace of mind. There is also a tennis court on the Sansui-en grounds and a swimming pool in the summer. (*This is also available for guests staying at our facility!

The hotel is located near Togatta Onsen, a hot spring resort, so you can enjoy the hot spring as well. A short drive from the inn, there is the popular "Fox Village" where you can meet fluffy foxes, and "Kami no Yu" where you can enjoy day trip bathing at a reasonable price.

The Matsukawa River flows through the park, and you can take a walk along the riverbank while enjoying the view of the Zao Mountain Range. The stream, which was the origin of the name "Seseragi-no-Sato" (village of murmuring fireflies), runs through the park and remains so pure that fireflies can live there. The park is filled with the colors of the four seasons: spring with fresh greenery, summer with green leaves, autumn with red leaves, and winter with silvery white leaves. The park is full of nature, with trees, flowers, and flowering plants adding color to the seasons. The garden is also home to many wild birds.

Secure management system
A 24-hour security system is in place.
The garden is patrolled every two hours during the night to ensure safety and security. If you need anything, please contact the management office.
