Magokoro Featuring Food and Cultural Experiences

This is a private, one-group-only inn renovated from a 150-year-old traditional farmhouse auberge, where you can enjoy both food and cultural experiences.
We are a couple running this inn. A skilled Japanese chef is always on site to prepare meals and assist with the experiences. We hope to provide a close, warm atmosphere—like spending quality time with family—within your limited stay.
You will be welcomed by the couple and our two daughters (ages 4 and 1). The maximum capacity is 5 guests.
After serving dinner, the hosts return to their home. If you need anything during the night, please feel free to contact us by phone.

Since the entire inn is a historic farmhouse, there are some natural irregularities and old features. However, you can appreciate the unique charm of a traditional Japanese house, including low ceilings and large wooden beams that are rare today.

You can enjoy hands-on experiences using the irori hearth and kamado stove. Activities include skewering fish and making gohei mochi (rice cakes). The kamado allows you to savor freshly cooked rice with all your senses. Please check in by 5 pm if you wish to join the kamado cooking experience.
Morning experiences are also available upon request.
(Please note that the irori and kamado may only be used together with the hosts.)

There is a simple kitchen for guests, equipped with dishes, cutlery, a freezer, and refrigerator for your use.

Depending on the season, various local ingredients such as plums, summer vegetables, river fish, chestnuts, and persimmons are abundant.
You can fully enjoy seasonal food experiences as well as nature-related activities unique to each season.

Since the inn is surrounded by mountains, insects are naturally present, and we coexist with the local wildlife. If any creatures come inside, please let us know, and we will gently release them outside.
At night, you may see small animals wandering in the garden.
In winter, deer have been spotted walking through the parking area. It might be a great chance to see local wildlife!

We warmly welcome families with children and groups of friends to relax and enjoy these unique experiences during your stay.
