We run a guesthouse and an organic tea plantation, occasionally help out in the local community and hold events, and I am currently serving as city council members.
The reason for starting this place was to make the villagers and visitors alike feel joy in the interactions they have here. this house is a renovated former tea farmer's home that had been vacant for many years.
in 2017. It was reborn as a guesthouse and has welcomed many visitors from all over Japan and the world, receiving countless media coverage.
It started as a traveller's lodge as backpacker style, but has now evolved into a homestay style.
In addition to regular guests, we also offer arrangements for budget travelers and people who wish to be more deeply involved with Sky Tea House.
