Vacation rentals in Kumakogen, Kamiukena District

I had a great stay at Masahiro's guest house. It was easy to find (10-minute walk from the JR train station Iyo-Hōjō) and check-in was uncomplicated. The guest house is cozy and has a fantastic view of the sea, just like in the pictures. The contact with Masahiro went smoothly. I can highly recommend to stay here.

It is a very nice inn.I enjoyed it

We (a whānau of 5) absolutely loved our stay at Shino's place on Gogoshima! The home was perfect for our children. There were puzzles and toys for the children, a nice front yard and a park next door. We especially enjoyed the snug sleeping places inside and the fire pit outside. Everything felt like it was walking distance and we spent a lot of our time outdoors or at the beach. We can't wait to stay here again! Ngā mihi nui, thank you !

I told them that it would be late to check in, and they turned on the air conditioner because it was getting a little cold. We would love to visit you again in a very nice accommodation. Thank you very much.

Three generations of parents and children and two dogs stayed.I was really grateful for the flexibility of the staff, who even brought out orange juice as a welcome drink when I checked in late!Also, the room and the garden outside, etc., were probably the owner's special touches, and it was really very nice.The actual place is even better than the photos. The room and futons were also clean and I had a safe stay.

We stayed for 2 nights and the atmosphere was good outside and we enjoyed the barbecue outside together for two days. The room in the house is fully equipped and has a very calm atmosphere. At night, I burned a wood stove to warm up, and enjoyed the puzzles in the room and had a relaxing time. The wood stove was comfortable and I went out many times (^ - ^) When you go outside at night, the starry sky is very beautiful because it is dark!

We received a variety of responses, such as sending our luggage in advance and discussing parking at the last minute! Great host and place to stay!

Rosie San’s guesthouse is located amidst beautiful surroundings. She is extremely friendly and very responsive. I loved how clear her instructions were and how things were labelled inside the house; it ensured we were well taken care of. We had a wonderful stay and slept very well. She helped us with local recommendations and it was a pleasure to meet her.

This is my second visit. I visited here in both summer and winter. Astronomically, you can see the Milky Way in the summer and the stars in the winter. Both have their own charms. However, in January and February, it gets cold here and the door doesn't open. Nowadays, Koreans come to Matsuyama, and if you are interested in the universe or want to see the Japanese countryside properly, it is worth it. If you buy a ticket to Kumagogan at JR Matsuyama Station, you can go for 1,200 yen one way. It will take about 1 hour and 10-20 minutes. The bus goes around the mountain endlessly, and you can see the view of Matsuyama and the scenery of the village of Gumakogen (Guman Highland). The bus arrives at the village hall, and right next to the village hall is a supermarket as big as Lotte Mart. If you buy a lot of food at the supermarket and take a taxi for about 9-10 minutes, you will see a sea of stars at the end of the tremendous darkness. When you get out of the taxi, your host grandfather will be waiting for you. As you talk to this silent old man, you will feel that he is a very kind and good person. On my last visit, I also watched the fireworks with this old man from a wooden observatory that he made himself in front of the property. By the way, it can be cold at the top of the mountain, so I recommend wearing something thicker than the clothes you wear in Matoya. Recommended!
