A Gathering Lodge in the Mountains, Echoing with the Memories of a Kindergarten
Tado Village is a cozy accommodation facility born from the renovation of a former kindergarten nestled in a quiet mountain hamlet along the Shikoku Pilgrimage route. With only five rooms—three Western-style and two Japanese-style—it offers just the right size for a relaxed and unhurried stay. Shared facilities such as a washing machine, dryer, and refrigerator gently support the rhythm of long-distance travelers. Meals are available in a flexible bento-box format through local restaurant partnerships, offering convenience without formality. Situated before or after the mountain pass toward Kochi, it serves as a small, reliable retreat to quietly reset yourself along your journey.

Renewal of kindergarten. There is no meal, but if you make a reservation, it will be delivered to the inn. Equipped with washing machine and dryer. It was a very comfortable inn.
No bath. Shower only. Rinse in shampoo and body soap are provided. Towels and toothbrushes are charged. I think it’s a great facility for pilgrims who are in trouble because Ebisuya is closed.
・There are no nearby shops or stores where you can buy food or daily necessities.
・Washing machines and dryers are available. Use is free, but detergent costs 100 yen.
・Wi-Fi is not available.
・There is no bathtub; shower booths are available.
・Guest rooms are extremely simple, equipped only with a bed and electrical outlets.
Most amenities commonly found in hotels or guesthouses (such as tables, tea sets, or TVs) are not provided.
The rooms are created by partitioning a former classroom, so sounds and activity from neighboring rooms can be easily heard.
・Meals are not provided on-site, but dinner and breakfast can be delivered if requested in advance.
Lunch (rice balls) can also be pre-ordered.
