Villas & Guesthouses

Wanoi Kakunodate actually consists of three separate properties, all of which were former kura storehouses that have been refurbished into stylish luxury guesthouses. Each property follows a certain theme, inspired by its original owner or purpose, such as the Tanmonogura guesthouse using colorful fabrics due to being a former fabric shop. These guesthouses are also strategically located throughout Kakunodate, situated in historic neighborhoods of well-preserved merchant and samurai estates. Guests can explore the nearby streets and come across notable landmarks or attractions. Aside from the heritage-rich locale, Senboku is also blessed with natural beauty. Shidarezakura, or weeping cherry blossoms, line the streets and homes. Japan's deepest lake, Lake Tazawa, is also a very popular destination that should not be missed.

Le Mas des Figues is a charming guesthouse set in a farm area near the Alpilles Regional Natural Park. Even with a history stretching back around three centuries, the guesthouse was only opened as a public accommodation by its current owner, Philippe Michelot, in 1999. This eco-friendly retreat offers five types of rooms and suites, a heated saltwater pool, farm-to-table dining, and other amenities. Emphasizing responsible agritourism, it features permaculture gardens, olive groves, sculpture gardens, and locally-sourced food and ingredients. The property also offers easy access to other ecotourism attractions located nearby. Ideal for casual getaways, family stays, or even private events as per request, guests can enjoy one of Provence's unique, cozy, and authentic hospitality experiences.
