Experience the quiet beauty of everyday life.
Taketa is a quiet town in Oita,
about an hour by car from Beppu, Yufuin, Aso,
and Takachiho.
Just five minutes from the old castle town,
Across the Edo, Meiji, Taisho, and Showa eras,
life in this house slowly changed with the times.
Now, in the Reiwa era,
the house has been reborn as a place to stay.
That said, the renovation is minimal.
The view from the windows
has hardly changed in over a hundred years.
Please take your time here,
and immerse yourself in the way of life this house still holds.
