寧靜舒適的木造屋

充滿療癒木質香氣的木造房屋，走沒一兩分鐘便是海邊，可觀賞日出，民宿老闆夫婦非常親切好客，會關心你去了哪裡，很好聊。離車站步行10分鐘內，周遭安靜舒適，有一間Lawsons很近非常方便。房間非常溫馨舒適，而且重點是非常非常乾淨，光腳踩在地板上也感覺不到一絲灰塵，真的很棒。有機會要再來渡假！

シンプルさが鎌倉らしい

木の温もりが心地よい建物に必要最低限の余計な物がないところが、シンプルでスローライフな鎌倉らしさを感じました。都内から週末をリフレッシュしに行くのにもお手軽で便利です。

シャワーが少なくとも　もう1つ要。

和風家屋でまだオ-プンして年数がたっていないので清潔できれい。 Living Roomも畳と座布団と和風。座れなれていない人にはターブルとソファの方が快適。 10人の滞在に対しシャワー1つは少なさすぎる。　空くのを待っている状態であった。夏までには改造しシャワーを1つ増やす計画とかは聞いたが。。。。洗顔用のシンクも2個。　グループが占拠したら空くのを待つのみ。用改善。バンクベッドのマットレスが薄い。オーナーはフレンドリーで個々にあわせて地元情報を提供してくれてとても良かった。
