Cottage vacation rentals in Tōkai Region

It was a lovely space! The bathroom, sauna, and open-air bath were really great.I enjoyed it many times during my stay. The kitchen was also clean and well-maintained, and there were many utensils such as an oven, seasonings, rice, and eggs, so the range of cooking was expanded. Next time I'd like to go when it's snowing in winter. Thank you very much.

I received a lot of help with a pleasant trip because of the comfortable accommodation

They were very kind to explain the facility and introduce the surrounding area.The facilities were also very clean and the view was great. I would like to stay again.

We had such a lovely time at the guest house. Cielétoile drove us around and showed us lots of great local spots!! The guest house was very cozy and had everything we needed. Our host was very responsive and happy to help with anything we needed!

The cottage itself might not be traditional Japanese architecture but the inside definitely is. Taller people could experience some issues but it's manageable with a little care. The kitchen is well equipped but the space is limited and if you prepare a lot of dishes at the same time, it's quite annoying. Would definitely recommend to use a rental car because you can access most restaurants and supermarkets within a couple minutes, as by foot, it can be a real pain to walk every time you need something. Overall a nice experience and would definitely recommend for larger groups up to 6 people.

accommodation is spacious, clean and in a very peaceful area. the hosts were very helpful. they picked us up at the train station, gave us great tips about the area and insight in the Japanese farm life. they drove us to interesting areas outside of the village.

Great house for me and my 6 friends. Walking distance to the town, roughly 10 minutes Rubbish was always grabbed if put in the outside bin. Great communication Host come and cleaned house half way through our stay and also restocked towels and kitchen

The home was even better than the pictures! We had been traveling a lot in very tiny homes and this was a very needed break and space. There was a beautiful babbling stream along the whole property that was so peaceful. It basically had everything you needed and more. The major recommendation would be a rental car, if you didn’t come with one. It’s not like the other major cities where everything is walkable. We were able to rent a car with ease at JR care rental at Kobuchizawa Station. The taxis are expensive here. We are from the US and you will need to get an international DL Before you travel from AAA for $20, super simple and fast. Remember to drive on the left side. We went to Suntory Whiskey Museum and was very nice history. There are also nice trails with beautiful waterfalls. You need a car for this. Hot water for the whole house needs to be on couple minutes before using just by pressing the far left button and doesn’t stay on long so will need to remember to turn on.

Thank you! It was very helpful that they responded quickly and kindly.🙇 The room and exterior were beautiful, and the surrounding nature was wonderful. It was a place with little light, so I could see the stars clearly. I'll be back next year!

Excellent place for a hideout from the city noise! Comfy place with spacious rooms! Very satisfying!

It was a great place to stay but really far from everything. We were also unable to reach a cab with taxi go or Uber. The only way we could get a ride was by calling a taxi service. It was also hard to explain the address to the taxi driver since we don’t speak Japanese. There was one time we did show the address of the Airbnb to the taxi driver and he took us far from it, we had to make a U-turn and guide him to the Airbnb. Other than that, it was a good, peaceful place.

Patrick has been very responsive even before I booked the place, answer to all my enquiries. He waited for us and pick up from bus terminal and also sent us to train station on our checkout day. Pat's cottage is has all basic cooking ware, coffee maker, oven, dishwasher etc. We had good time staying in his cosy, lovely cottage.

This place was so cute & homie! Perfect location for our 1 night stay in Kusatsu. The cottage came with everything you need from shampoo to condiments. The host was responsive and very accommodating! 10/10

This is my first time in Japan, and meeting the lovely yumi and harufumi at haruya in these two days was the best experience of this trip. This house and the owner and everyone I met are different, kind, warm and sincere. You can feel it from their smiles. And I was very lucky to join their yoga activities, which allowed me to meet new friends. By the way, there is also the lovely lily. This is awesome! You can feel the attention to detail of Yumi and Farufumi in the house. You can hear the sound of the stream, the sound of the leaves swaying, and the sound of various insects chirping at night. It really slows down time. I will come back with my loved ones if I have the chance!

It was very clean and I was able to relax for a long time!

This rental is located in Kita-Karuizawa. There is a sense of openness because you can see the golf course in front of you. We enjoyed the salad powder snow during our winter stay. If you expect a wood stove to function as a heating instead of ornamental, you need more firewood than you think (I want to bring 3 bundles)

Thank you for taking care of me for two days! And the room.

It was very helpful to have detailed communication at check-in.The room was clean and we had a relaxing stay.We had a pleasant stay with the family, and we were able to have a BBQ in a private space.Thank you very much.

It was helpful that they picked us up from the check-in location and took us to the accommodation!I was grateful for the host to load my luggage into the car. It's a little far to the hot springs, but it's within walking distance. Five of us stayed, but it was spacious, quiet, and relaxing. Above all, the bath is the best.Please be careful not to get it in your eyes when washing your face because the water is very hot (laughs).The bathtub was also deep, and the water was nice and warm! Later, I heard from a local that it is difficult to draw hot springs in homes in many ways. If you want to relax without worrying about the people around you, this is the place to stay!

We had an incredible stay! The owners were exceptionally kind and welcoming, making us feel at home right away. They went above and beyond by suggesting great nearby places to visit, which made our trip even more enjoyable. Their hospitality truly made a difference, and we highly recommend staying here. Looking forward to coming back!

It was a very pleasant stay

My husband and I stayed one night.It was just around the time to see the autumn leaves, and it was a very calm environment with a colorful autumn leaves around the area. It was really perfect for relaxing away from the city, and I slept for the first time in a long time.The outside terrace was also large, and the breakfast in the beautiful air was exceptional. The dishes and futons are also very clean.We'd love to stay again for our consecutive holidays.

We received very helpful service, as they accepted our reservation even though it was made the day before, and they were polite throughout.The room was very clean, and we had a pleasant time in a stylish space. We also enjoyed watching movies with the♪ projector. At the entrance, you can enjoy BBQs and fires, and at night, there is a space for taking pictures with cute little illuminations. I'd love to stay again if I get the chance.

I stayed for two nights and three days in November. I got cold on the first night, but I had a warm stay with a wood stove. In the morning, I saw many small birds gathering in the nest box in the garden. I visited "Chabo Iida" that I booked in advance from the host's guidebook, and it was a very tasty and delicious dinner. I was able to fully enjoy the refreshing autumn Yatsugatake, and it was a refreshing trip.
