This place is in a quiet area in Yufuin. Open fields and mountains in the background give you an amazing view from your room for sunsets, or sunrises. The staff are friendly, helpful, and welcoming. This is secluded enough to enjoy a quiet stay, but still be close enough to drive to Beppu and Oita to enjoy the city attractions.

Quaint ryokan for a good romantic stay.
Location is slightly off from the main stretch but it would be great if you drive. Love the quiet area and how the whole ryokan is preserved so well and clean! It exceeded my expectations of the stay!
