- IIYOSHI (10/5): 朝早くチェックアウトでしたのでゆっくり感は無いですが対応も良くまた泊まりたいと思う! - 実家に帰って来た感じの居間が良かった。 特に無し
- MEIKO (8/5): ゆっくりと寛げました。 - オーナーさんが気さくで良かったです。
質問に気持ち良く応えて下さいました。
ありがたかったです。
- Hideo (10/5): 楽しい思い出になりました。 - 天候が急に寒くなった時期でしたが、10月にもかかわらず、堀こたつや寝室のストーブなど細やかな配慮があり、快適に過ごせました。ありがとうございました。 調理器具や食器は十分すぎるくらい用意していただいてましたが、包丁が全く切れず、ちょっと残念でした。
- kuniko (10/5): また来たい!今度は長期で。 - 親戚の家に泊まっている感じで過ごせました。 特にありません
- Katie (8/5): Great value, family stay in Azumino. Ideal base for exploring the area. We would like to come back in the summer for cyc - Shino san was very welcoming and made our stay pleasant. The house had plenty of space for all of us (4) and we enjoyed the kitchen/ living room with kotatsu. Comfy futon beds and warm duvets. Azumino is a great little town with plenty to see, even in winter. We were lucky to see the coming of age matsuri at Hotaka shrine. It was very cold during our stay and even the insides of the windows froze! We would have liked to use the bath but it was not available.
- Yann (10/5): Super séjour passé à Azumino, shino est super sympa c’était un plaisir je de loger chez vous merci encore ! - La propreté du logement ainsi que la gentillesse de shino Rien tout est super
- 林 (7/5): -
- Ofir (9/5): Would totally come back if ever again in the area - The host is very nice and welcoming. The room itself is pretty big, more than enough for one or two people and suitcases. There is also a closet room. The kitchen has everything you need in order to cook. The location is perfect ti those who rent a car but not perfect to those who use public transportation. Overall very good. First time in a futon bed. Not the most comfortable bed i slept in but that is what you're gonna get in a lot of other budget hotels and hostel too.
- Mabel (10/5): Fantastisch verblijf - We hebben enorm genoten van het verblijf bij Shino. De gastheer was zeer vriendelijk en zorgde ervoor dat we niets tekort kwamen. Ik kan alleen maar zeggen: verblijf hier en geniet van de prachtige omgeving tussen de bergen en rijstvelden. Als ik 6 sterren kon geven, dan had ik dat zeker gedaan. Niks, alles was perfect.
- Elien (10/5): - Heel gastvrije, vriendelijke en behulpzame gastheer die heel goed voorbereid was op onze aankomst. Ruime en aangename leefruimte en keuken. Slaapkamer en faciliteiten zeer in orde. Wij voelden ons er helemaal thuis.
De woning was makkelijk bereikbaar met parking vlak aan de deur.
Aanrader! :)

- Kirsten (10/5): Shino was a great host and we loved our stay! - Shino was so and kind and helpful! We were so grateful for his generosity. Also his home is very clean and is in a very peaceful location. We didn’t have a car so things were a little difficult, but Shino offered to help us hire bikes which turned out to be perfect!

- Emiko (10/5): A peaceful retreat surrounded by farmland—not a farmhouse stay, -
- 晴男 (7/5): - スタッフの人柄が良かったです 扉の立て付け 全体的に 古さを感じました。頑張って 整備している感じです。
- Miho (8/5): - 5泊しました。オーナーご夫婦が親切で静かな環境。1グループのみの宿泊なので気兼ねなく過ごせます。 脱衣所(お風呂&脱衣所はオーナーさんご一家との唯一の共同スペース)と廊下の汚れが少し気になりました。脱衣所に粘着テープのカーペットクリーナーなどがあれば良いな、と思いました。
- Melissa (7/5): -
- YASUSHI (8/5): いつもありがとうです。 - ロケーションがいい。気楽。家と同じようにくつろげる。 シャワートイレが欲しい
- 久保田 (9/5): 楽しめた! - ゆっくり出来た。寝心地が良かった。いろいろな綺麗な食器が使えて嬉しかった。しのさんが親切だった。 シャワーの水圧が弱かった、と家族が言っていた。私は気にならなかったが。
- Muhammad (9/5): The retirement home you want - I love how peaceful the area is. A real Japanese country house with surrounding farms & mountains view. Really is the zen that we are looking forward to. We can cook and use their living room which is really helpful. I felt bad saying this because Shino was so nice and accommodating. But the heating inside the house is not centralised and we depend on portable heaters, which take some time to warm the room. So it was a bit cold and chilly especially when we just return to the house or walking into another room.
- Michelle (10/5): A very comfortable stay - We loved meeting Shino’s who was very pleasant. We enjoyed having access to the bottom level of the house, a great kitchen and dining area. It was also very helpful having a washing machine and drying room.
- Betty (9/5): Superb - Location was convenient and beautiful
- Nakorn (8/5): Very good -
- Howard (9/5): Superb - Charming location, super friendly host, fully stocked kitchen
- Prasanth (7/5): Good -
- Korey (7/5): Good - Shino is great! Nothing nearby
- Quan (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely accommodation with amazing view of rice fields and the Alps. Great for hiking and biking. The owner was super amazing: nothing was too much to ask and he will respond to any request right away. Nothing. Wish I can stay longer
- Danunart (8/5): Very good -
- Smith (8/5): Value for money - It’s remote which offer a sense of locality. How the real Japanese family live. Owner is great and helpful. There’s a separate entrance and nice small kitchen. Scenery of Japan Alps is beautiful despite lot of cloud.
- Leah (9/5): Comfortable accommodation in a rustic and very pretty area with a caring/helpful proprietor - Shino's Farm Inn is perfect for those seeking peace and quiet and rural views. It is in front of a pretty canal, has a wonderful view of the snow capped mountains at the back and is near a spectacular sakura-lined lane along a playground and a jinja. It's also a short walk to a main road with restaurants. Shino-san also went out of his way to bring me to other areas of interest, particularly where the cherry blossoms are as I visited in spring. The bedroom is also large and comfortable and the house is well-equipped with necessities.
- Shauli (8/5): Very good -
- Shauli (9/5): Superb -
- Echo (10/5): Awesome countryside experience with super nice host:) - Host Shinohara San is awesome. The room is beyond our expectations. Azumino is so beautiful and people are so nice. Hope my Japanese is much better when I visit next time!
- Pornpimon (9/5): Very comfortable and nice owner. - The owner was very accommodating. He was very welcoming and showed everything around the house. It was like living in your own home, everything was available for your convenience and very clean. Wished we stayed longer.
- Allison (9/5): Very enjoyable stay - The house was very nice and our room spacious with comfortable futons ! Good facilities (you'll share the bathroom with the family and there is a well equipped kitchen with all you need to cook and eat in the dining/living with TV).
Hiroyuki was a really nice and friendly host, he helped us rent bikes and gave us some restaurants recommendations, always available if needed.
The house is situated at about 30-40 min walk from the Toyoshina station, but the area is worth the walk (small roads surrounded by fields, paths along the riverside and very nice neighborhood and houses on the way).
The area and view is beautiful surrounded by mountains. We really enjoyed staying here !
- Jennifer (10/5): Shino’s is an excellent place to stay. - All great All was good
- Konoka (9/5): Superb -
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Pelle (10/5): Local experience in Azumino - Shino is very helpful and friendly. He helped us with bikes and recommendations in the neighborhood.
Expect an authentic Japanese countryside experience. The rooms were basic but everything was very clean and Shino helped us out getting settled and offered us an extra room.
- Luis (10/5): Quiet area, some restaurants and great hiking nearby - Nice quiet location outside Matsumoto and close to some great hiking areas to the West.
It's a Japanese traditional house therefore you need to antecipate beds on the floor and shared bathroom. Very friendly owner that explained how are where thigs are and work

Everything was good and there was nothing to dislike.
- Sylvie (9/5): Very spacious accommodation, with big kitchen, sitting room. Very well looked after. - Mr Shino is very very accommodating and helpful. The facilities are large with a very well equipped kitchen. The bathroom is shared but there was never a problem.

Thank you Mr Shino for making our stay so comfortable. Everything was perfect
