An Entire-Building Inn in Tamba Sasayama Surrounded by 10 Cultural Properties and a Rock Garden

An entire-building inn opened by "Odagaki Shoten," a long-established black bean store in Tamba Sasayama City, Hyogo Prefecture. "New Material Research Laboratory," presided over by Hiroshi Sugimoto and Tomoyuki Sakakida, renovated 10 National Registered Tangible Cultural Properties built from the late Edo period to the early Taisho period on the main store's premises. Among them, the one built in the early Taisho period became an entire-building rental private villa for only one group per day. You can also enjoy activities such as breakfast using local ingredients in the tea room, observing black bean sorting, and a black bean roasting experience.
