Familiar Warmth and Handmade Comfort in a Pilgrim’s Rest Stop
Tucked quietly among Hiketa’s old townscape, “Guesthouse & Cafe Bar MOCHA” is a renovated traditional house turned into a restful stop on your journey. Touch the fir wood floors, lean back in the sunlit engawa, and a sense of homecoming spreads through you. With just four rooms, it still offers showers, laundry facilities, and Wi-Fi—reliable comforts that take the weight off tired pilgrims. At the attached café bar, a cup of coffee pairs with handmade home-style meals that gently unwind your heart. Midway along the pilgrimage route, it’s a calm haven that nourishes both body and spirit.

Newly opened in 2024. Located in Hikeda, Higashikagawa-shi, it is recommended for pilgrims heading to Ryozen-ji Temple along the coast after completing their pilgrimage at Okubo-ji Temple. The facilities are state-of-the-art and the hospitality of the couple who run the inn is very good. I also really enjoyed the cafe bar on the premises.
