Cottages in Ayabe

My stay at Chabi Dining was absolutely exceptional! The hosts not only provided us with outstanding service and delicious meals, but they also welcomed us into their own hundred-year-old traditional home, carefully preserving its historical charm and spirit. Their dedication to maintaining this unique property allows guests to experience a true journey through time, making the stay far more than just an ordinary visit. From the moment we arrived, we felt warmly welcomed and surrounded by incredible hospitality. The hosts are fantastic – their warmth, kindness, and meticulous attention to detail made us feel completely at home. The atmosphere is both elegant and cozy, while the interior is impeccably clean, adding to the overall comfort and relaxation. The culinary experience exceeded all our expectations. Every dish was a masterpiece – fresh ingredients, perfectly balanced flavors, and beautifully presented. The surrounding nature of Chabi Dining brings a deep sense of peace and relaxation. The beautiful, green landscapes create a tranquil setting, perfect for unwinding and escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life. All the local attractions and recommendations from the hosts were exactly as described and absolutely amazing. Every visit to these places added something special to our experience. Even the activities offered on-site were top-notch and perfectly suited to our interests. I would happily return to Chabi Dining! It’s a place where tradition meets warm hospitality, and where the combination of nature, outstanding cuisine, and an authentic atmosphere create an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

Lovely hosts, great (vegetarian option) food, quiet remote location close enough to a city, hot bath....its hard to put it all in words...it was everything great into the smallest detail and great value for money!

It is old building with modernization facility. Good kitchen and air condition and the parking lot is nearby also. It have a beautiful small courtyard and you can take very good portrait. just 10~15mins walking time that you can visit Higashiyoshihara. Actually, I visit East Maizuru Brick Park in the 1st day and west Maizuru for 2nd day. It is good and comfortable house for me.

The house is beautiful and offers a lot of options for a group of friends or a family. Well equipped and clean, it's spacious and surrounded by Sakura trees. The host is also very kind and responsive.

I dont find ample words to describe this extraordinarily beautiful and scenic place of Ayabe...It is a must try for everyone whi is visiting Japan. Experience the leisure of Japanese cuisine and tradition in a very peaceful way along with the most humble and exceptional host Yuki..We were warmly welcomed by Yuki and family. We had a great unforgetable time with them..

Twinkle Villa is truly a gem. Getting to spend many days in this lovely, lovely house in the charming rural environment was pure joy and adventure for a city dweller like me. Even cycling to the supermarket was so much fun :) The house has everything you'd need: spacious rooms, well-equipped kitchen; living area with fire-place, and gardens - with incredible view of the trees, farmland and mountains. There are very good restaurants nearby with unique offerings. The hosts are kind, very responsive and extremely accommodating. Thank you!
