Very clean. Pretty spacious. Lovely tub outside that was great to soak in. Good location - close to Anbo and other little towns, not a far drive from Miyanoura. The ladies left homemade desserts in the fridge each day which was incredible.

Set 2.5 km from Harutahama Beach, Cottage Kutsuroki offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Yakusugi Land is 17 km from the lodge, while Shiratani Unsuikyo is 28 km away. The nearest airport is Yakushima Airport, 7 km from Cottage Kutsuroki.

Very good option as Cottage Kutsuroki are standalone bungalows so no noise issues at all. Extra convenience of car parked right at door, easy to load suitcases etc. Very good well stocked kitchen and finally, after days of thin futon beds, nice to have “normal” mattress beds to sleep on! Good heating. Nice shower and bath adequate. Very good location at Anbo

    Very good value for money, in a traditional rural Japanese house. Placed in a very peaceful location in the island, the lady was very nice and the lodging was great. I couldn’t afford the ryokans in my stay in Japan, so this was a good substitute, and was also the best place I stayed in in Japan

    A beautiful wooden house right next to the ocean. Everything was super clean, well equiped and the host was very nice to us, helped us a lot and gave great advice about the island! The sky view from the terrace was stunning.

    The lodge is absolutely beautiful and has everything one could need. The host is very friendly and gave us some very useful suggestions. The neighborhood is very green and peaceful and we enjoyed daily interactions with chickens and a very jumpy goat. We will definitely stay again if we visit Yakushima again.
