Walking up to Oyake feels like stepping into a Japanese fairytale.

Located in the peaceful Yanagi village, far away from hustle and bustle of the Fuefuki town, Oyake might be the most atmospheric kominka of all. The name Oyake 親家 is made up of Oya 親 character meaning “Parent”, and Ke 家, meaning “House”. A former samurai residence, one of the most prominent households in the area used to call Oyake their home. This beautiful kominka boasts large open spaces, separated by elegant sliding doors and a breathtaking garden, where Camellia and Hydrangea trees bloom in November and June, respectively. But the most fascinating part of the house is the attic that seems to be hiding some unspoken secrets.

Oyake is a large kominka that is perfect for friends and families traveling together. The spacious living and dining area has been refurbished with a modern twist, but once you step beyond the sliding doors, you will be met with an array of rooms where traditional Japanese design has been preserved in its authenticity. After you are finished exploring the first floor take the old staircase up to the attic. Conveniently, Oyake has two state-of-the-art bathroom fixtures, one of which has a cypress bathtub.
