[Kyomachiya Rental] 115-year-old Kyomachiya · Takasegawa Shichijo

Takasegawa Shichijo Kyoto Machiya is a residence with 115-year-old Kyoto machiya as a full novation. The Kyoto machiya, which shapes the beautiful scenery of Kyoto, has been restructured into a highly airtight and insulated building so that you can spend comfortably in the steamy summer and cold winter that is unique to Kyoto, leaving the structure of the time. From the Japanese-style room on the first floor, you can see the tsubo garden with the imagery of the "open space" (* garden leading to the tea room). In addition, we have prepared a sofa so that you can look at the tsubo garden while relaxing relaxing in the hallway. At night, you can spend healing time while looking at the lit-up tsubo garden. There are two bedrooms on the second floor, with two single beds and one double bed. If you are staying with more than 5 people, it is a little troublesome, but you can lay a futon in the Japanese-style room on the first floor and use it as a bedroom. ※ We would appreciate it if you could also tell us the number of children during the request. The kitchen is equipped with cooking utensils and dishes so that you can cook simple meals.
