A home away from home,
where you can say “I’m back.”

A home away from home.

Since 1969, by the sea in Tarumi,
three generations of our family have run this small inn.

Our grandparents opened this place hoping it would be somewhere anyone could come back to and say “I’m home.” Today their grandson has taken over, and our family runs it together with the goal of keeping it going for 100 years.

01 — About About

We have been rooted in Tarumi, Kobe, for more than half a century. The building our grandparents started shows its age in places.

It is old and not always convenient, but it feels nostalgic and comfortable. We hope you will feel the same way.

05 — FAQ FAQ
Can guests under 20 stay? booking

We are sorry, but we do not accept groups made up only of guests under 20. Guests under 18 travelling alone may stay if they submit a consent form from a parent or guardian in advance. If you let us know in the notes when booking that you are a minor travelling alone, we will email you the consent form.

Can I see the sea from my room? stay

Some rooms have a sea view, but not all of them. The Family Room and the Bunk Bed Room face north, toward the main road. In fact, the sea used to be right to the south of the inn. That land has since been reclaimed and an outlet mall now stands there. We do have rooms on the sea side, but the OUR forest behind us grows every year, so the view is becoming more limited. Rooms are also assigned according to each day’s bookings, so we are sorry that we cannot accept requests for a sea-view room. That said, the seaside is just a few minutes’ walk away. If you are looking for sea views, we highly recommend a stroll. Feel free to ask us at check-in for our favourite sunrise and sunset spots.

What time is check-in? stay

Check-in is from 17:00 to 21:00. If you will arrive late, please contact us by phone or email in advance. Arrivals after 21:00 incur a late charge of ¥1,000 per person. Guests who have prepaid may be able to use self check-in. With advance notice only, we can hand over keys or store luggage from 09:30 on the day of arrival.

What time is check-out? stay

Check-out is by 09:30. Many guests who come for fishing or hiking asked for early departures, so we have switched to self check-out. You are welcome to leave early in the morning.
