Manor House

At the end of April 2023, we, who are particular about rooms with open-air baths, were very interested in this pension, which was advertised as inexpensive, so we made a reservation. Moreover, we were further intrigued by the fact that they also serve night crying soba noodles, like those offered by major resort hotels. However, the weather forecast for the day of the reservation predicted rain, even though the days before and after were sunny. We were hesitant, but we couldn't cause any trouble, so we visited as planned. We were lucky to suddenly encounter six wild deer in the bushes just a stone's throw from the front desk, and we were able to take a long video without them being too scared. And the welcome drink corner was equipped with a coffee server, Umaibo, Cabbage Taro, and other Yaokin sweets were served in a basket, and several kinds of popsicles were prepared in the freezer, a service that is irresistible for families with children. Next to them, there were two massage chairs, which were a bit old, but adults were also satisfied. There were three private baths, which was more than enough for the number of rooms, and we were happy that we didn't have to wait. Each one was large enough for two people to enter and felt comfortable. The rooms with open-air baths are in the annex, and you have to change your shoes twice and go through an unroofed bridge, which was a drawback because it was raining. However, if the weather is good, there is a swing that looks beautiful along the way, so you can enjoy it. The entrance to the front desk and the annex has a striking heavy door that is six feet wide and a triangular window, and the design is elaborate. The annex also has a new massage chair, so you can relax. You can call the guest room phone before dinner and breakfast. Fresh salads, grilled and well-seasoned meat dishes, and cut cake desserts were all very delicious and enjoyable, and the Mt. Fuji cider looks good and is recommended. And the long-awaited nightingale soba is not only soba, but also udon and ramen, and you can heat it up yourself. The common soup is very delicious, and you can't help but ask for a second serving. After a good night sleep after enjoying the hot springs, the sky was cloudy in the morning, but several nightingals were singing pleasantly. We had a delicious breakfast of freshly baked bread, and apart from the weather, it was a great short trip. Thank you very much for your hospitality. This is a highly recommended pension where you can experience original service and have a lot of fun. Next time, I would like to go on a sunny day with a view of Mt. Fuji.
