The whole house is equipped with a floor heating system, which is warm and pleasant even in winter.
There are two separate toilets and a bathroom to meet the needs of multiple guests. The bathroom has a bathtub overlooking the courtyard, so you can take a hot bath when you return from your trip and relax your mind and body.

The kitchen is fully equipped for cooking during long stays and enjoying the charm of Kyoto's local ingredients.
