Project Description

Miyama FUTON & Breakfast is a thatched-roof farmhouse built over 150 years ago, but the water facilities have been upgraded with modern equipment, so you can stay comfortably without any inconvenience.

The kitchen, washroom, and toilet have all been renovated for ease of use, combining the charm of a traditional Japanese home with the cleanliness and functionality of modern living.

In the kitchen, we provide cooking utensils, cups, dishes, and other essentials, so you can enjoy preparing meals together with your family or friends. Buying fresh local ingredients and cooking in this peaceful countryside setting is one of the special pleasures of staying here.

While you experience the atmosphere of a historic farmhouse, you can also enjoy the comfort of modern facilities.
Miyama FUTON & Breakfast is a place where you can relax and stay with peace of mind.
