Mga Cottage sa Naoshima

the guest house was lovely - very clean and spacious and in an excellent location close to Honmura port and a bike rental shop. There is also a great selection of drinks and snacks in the guest house. The hosts were amazing. They couldn’t do enough for us, picking us up and dropping us off to the port, helping with booking bicycles and finding a restaurant in the evening. They even bought us fresh coffee when we checked out. The perfect stay with the perfect hosts! Thank you!

We were welcomed early and shown where to leave our bags. Everything was as advertised and the futons were very comfortable. Breakfast was simple and the bread was delicious. I wish we had stayed a bit longer.

The host is very kind and gave us a ride to a bike rental shop after checking in and to the port after check out.

The hosts were wonderful! They picked us up from the port, took care of our luggage, and dropped us off afterwards. Wonderful location and stay. Would go back any day!

We were very comfortable staying at Artisinal. Our hostess was very helpful and lovely, we enjoyed the use of the bikes, the welcome ability to do laundry and the super comfortable beds. There are just three restaurants nearby but the Italian we would highly recommend. It’s a short bike ride to other restaurants and close to the bus stop. Thank you Artisinal for the stay.

I fell in love with this house. It was incredible. Everything I imagined a traditional Japanese style home to be. Plenty of space. A calming aesthetic. Quality home. A lot of outdoor space which must be wonderful in good weather. Plenty of heating. Plenty of blankets. Pyjamas supplied. I wish I could live there - that’s how beautiful it is. I am so grateful for the chance to stay here. Good value for the space. Also, I have to thank the hosts for being so kind, warm and friendly in their communication and for being so generous and helpful. This would be an ideal base for exploring Naoshima. I walked to Uno Port in 30 mins, but without backpack it could be quicker. Probably there is a bus but I didn’t look. It felt so nice staying in a town not routinely visited by tourists. After the crowds of Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka etc this was a welcome respite and a chance to slow down and see a small town, real life.

This perfectly preserved traditional japanese house proved to be the perfect housing for our stay exploring Teshima and Naoshima. Alan, the host, proved to be invaluable in his recommendations about how to best visit the islands. He also gave us tasty addresses for lunch and dinner and even drove us there at night. We think the villa is the perfect setting for a family, it provided us for a welcome respite during our very busy 2 weeks in Japan. We rented bikes and thanks to them, we were able to crisscross Teshima although your youngest son is only 10. Alan not only welcomed us right at the ferry arrival but was always in touch with us before and during the stay. 10/10 ! (The sister villa "Queen" looks very nice too)
