Satoyama Auberge Maki no Oto
Satoyama Auberge Maki no Oto

Three rooms a night; the baths are heated water, not hot spring.

Maki no Oto is a three-room auberge in the satoyama (rice-field and farm) countryside of Nanto, Toyama. The three rooms (47-57 sqm) each have their own bathroom and terrace and sleep 1-2, 1-3 or 1-4 guests; the second-floor special room Yotsuhanabishi has a jacuzzi bath. Dinner is a seasonal 'satoyama French' course served in the on-site restaurant's private rooms, and breakfast features home-grown seasonal vegetables and kamado-cooked rice. The inn picks guests up free from JR Johana Station on request; infants and toddlers are not accepted at dinner and pets are not allowed.
