A Message from the Host
[Kagawa / Mitoyo] This is an old private house that has stood quietly in the countryside for about 75 years, giving you a sense of history and lifestyle, and provides the environment of a private guest house and coworking space at the same time.
Visit Japan’s Salar de Uyuni, Chichibugahama, Torii Gate in the Sky, Takaya Shrine, famous udon restaurants, etc., and think about Zenigata Sunae and the Pilgrimage.
How about experiencing pot-cooking in the Goemon bath, sailing on a yacht in the sea, or horseback riding at Ariake Beach? When you get tired of playing, you can stretch out on the tatami.
”Setouchi Base” can be used as a dormitory-style guest house for friends, families, or solo travelers, or as a base for business people who can work remotely, and as a base for both work and play.
Would you like to make it your third place in the countryside of Kagawa?
