The hosts went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our stay was perfect, from picking us up at the station to assisting with bicycle rentals and even surprising us with a reservation at a fantastic restaurant at night.

I fell in love with this house. It was incredible. Everything I imagined a traditional Japanese style home to be. Plenty of space. A calming aesthetic. Quality home. A lot of outdoor space which must be wonderful in good weather. Plenty of heating. Plenty of blankets. Pyjamas supplied. I wish I could live there - that’s how beautiful it is. I am so grateful for the chance to stay here. Good value for the space. Also, I have to thank the hosts for being so kind, warm and friendly in their communication and for being so generous and helpful. This would be an ideal base for exploring Naoshima. I walked to Uno Port in 30 mins, but without backpack it could be quicker. Probably there is a bus but I didn’t look. It felt so nice staying in a town not routinely visited by tourists. After the crowds of Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka etc this was a welcome respite and a chance to slow down and see a small town, real life.

This perfectly preserved traditional japanese house proved to be the perfect housing for our stay exploring Teshima and Naoshima. Alan, the host, proved to be invaluable in his recommendations about how to best visit the islands. He also gave us tasty addresses for lunch and dinner and even drove us there at night. We think the villa is the perfect setting for a family, it provided us for a welcome respite during our very busy 2 weeks in Japan. We rented bikes and thanks to them, we were able to crisscross Teshima although your youngest son is only 10. Alan not only welcomed us right at the ferry arrival but was always in touch with us before and during the stay. 10/10 ! (The sister villa "Queen" looks very nice too)

    The room is larger than we’d come to expect in Japan. The location is really ideal for people wanting to explore Noashima and the surrounding art islands. We thought about staying at Benesse and after hearing other comments, this felt a lot more bespoke and us. It’s close to lots of eateries, the port, the bath house and bicycle rentals- so convenient. It feels very recently updated so nice little touches everywhere. The sauna was a huge bonus. I didn’t realise we would receive fresh water and towels every day. This was a nice touch.

    This place ranks among the best I've ever stayed in! Its location couldn't be more ideal—it's close to bus stops that conveniently connect to all the art museums and other parts of the island. Situated within a campsite, we stayed in our own cozy cottage complete with a private bathroom. While the interior wasn't lavish, it had everything we needed, and the sea view from our room was breathtaking. Moreover, the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful, adding to the overall wonderful experience.

    Breakfast was available at a cafe about 5 minutes walk. The house is a charming old style Japanese property overlooking the local fishing harbour. The hosts were very helpful, picking us up from the ferry and booking dinner on two nights ( highly recommended since few options). The hosts live off-site. There is an excellent selection of art books in the house and easy access to the Benesse House area.

    Beautiful Japanese minka house made into a guest house. The guest house was very cozy and I enjoyed chatting with the other guests in the kitchen and living room. The house is just stunning and it was such a joy staying there in the heart of Honmura area. It is opposite Ando museum and Art House: Minamidera. I was also given a 100¥ discount on the café opposite. The hosts also work at Cafe Salon Nakaoku which is another beautiful restaurant and a must-visit! Do make a reservation with the GH for dinner. :)

    Set a little above the town, it’s a short walk downhill to charming Honmura. Cosy, stylish, with the best host who took time to explain everything: restaurants, cafes, and the arts
