Fresh air and the natural aroma of the air.
In addition to the natural sounds of chirping wild birds and frogs　and the cry of a goat.
In the morning and evening, the chickens come out of their coop and the dogs and cats　and cats are walking freely in the garden.

You can enjoy a peaceful retreat in such a tranquil setting while feeling the peacefulness of time. In spring, Tsukide-no-sato is a beautiful sight with plum blossoms and magnolias blooming in profusion. You can also view the cherry blossoms from your guest room.
At the clear stream with fireflies dancing in the air, you can enjoy a relaxing time by the river while soaking up the negative ions.
You will be impressed by the clear blue color of the river and the clarity of the water even when you dive deep into the river.
