"Who should stay at Guest House Nodoka?"

If you want a place that is like staying at the cottage of a Japanese friend's house...

If you want to experience everyday Japanese living...

If you want to try an izakaya...

If you want to try your hand at flower arrangement or calligraphy...

If you want cook by yourself with local ingredients...

If you need a base from which to enjoy Kinosaki Onsen, Izushi Castle Town and Kannabe Highlands...

If you want private space...

If you like flowers...

If you like Japanese pottery & porcelain...

If you want to see Toyooka bags...

If you want to attend the Toyooka Theatre Festival...

If you need a quiet place to focus on your work...
