KuuHouse
Country Stay
Welcome home !
Welcome to our mountain village Chikahagi.
I am Miki from Kuu House in Chikahagi!
Our mom Yuko who loves antiques and the good old days, and has been renovating this 150 year old minka (Japanese house) for the last 30 years. My husband, Keita, and I joined her, and this house was reborn as “County Stay Kuuhouse "
The three of us will look after you like a part of our family; it’s Japanese hospitality - “omotenashi.” We hope to make Kuu House where you want to keep coming back, like your home!
