We couldn't have asked for more when staying with Kako and Keiko. We felt welcomed into their home from the moment we walked through the door and got along with them so well. We were treated to a lovely home-cooked breakfast each day, had great conversations and were told so many great stories about their family history. They're a family of genuinely lovely people and great hosts. We'll miss them.

Many of us know that getting a solid night's rest can be difficult when traveling abroad but all of us agreed that we probably had some of our deepest sleeps staying in this house! Very comfortable. The house itself is spacious with a beautiful garden. Bright and airy with plenty of sunlight flooding in through the windows.

The surrounding neighbourhood is quiet but filled with plenty of eateries, cafes and quirky little shops to give it character. Such a convenient location too – you're able to get anywhere you really need to be by taking the train just one stop to Shinjuku, where all major trains interconnect. It's a lovely stroll to Yoyogi Park too and walking through to the other side brings you straight to Harajuku!
