Stay in a quiet seaside small house, Uminoie Musca

Right in front of the house, there is a clear ocean and a beautiful sandy beach where you can walk barefoot. It is not a prominent tourist destination or a convenient place like a city, but the seaside is very quiet outside of summer, and you can enjoy your time in a private place facing nature. I hope you can spend time with your family or friends in a beach house. Uminoie Muska is a renovated beach house that was originally a beach house. Mooska is an Estonian word that means "a person who enjoys life." We opened the inn in the spring of 2022 as a private rental, hoping that everyone who comes will have a wonderful time enjoying their lives.

Old private house with seasonal mountain views

There is nothing here... that's why it's so relaxing... 　Chizu-cho, Hatto-gun, Tottori Prefecture, is a small town in a mountainous area surrounded by mountains, rivers, fields and rice paddies, 93% of which are forests. 　The Tottori Sand Dunes, a tourist attraction, are about an hour away by car, and there are several nice tourist spots and recommended cafes in the town. 　It's a good place to use as a base for sightseeing, or just relax to your heart's content without going anywhere. Please have a wonderful time.
