Stay at a traditional private residence that has been converted from either a storehouse built in the early Meiji period or a townhouse built in the early Showa period. Adorned with traditional bamboo works, Kurume Kasuri textiles, bamboo lampshades woven by local artisans, and cypress wood baths crafted by expert craftsmen, the rooms of these accommodations exude a sense of handmade warmth. Guests can also enjoy breakfast prepared with locally grown vegetables, fruits, shiitake mushrooms, dried sea weed from the Ariake Sea, and other delicacies from the nearby mountains and sea.
