一次非常不错的民宿体验！我在这里居住了7天，后面又延长3天。这里的家人非常友好，特别是佐京典子妈妈，她做的早餐和晚餐真的是超值！每天都能喝上上等的绿茶，典子妈妈还会给你很多当地的旅游信息，是一位非常热心的妈妈！

My stay in Shimada went beyond my expectations. It's not just a traditional Japanese house, it's a tea farm. I got a private tour in order to get to know production processes and, of course, I was introduced to all kinds of tea. All of them tasted amazing! Further the host picked me up by car whenever I needed a ride. The elderly couple living inside the house are pure joy! I talked to the elderly man a lot about tea and the grandma prepared amazing breakfast and dinner for me everyday! Even though they don't speak English and I don't speak Japanese, we had great conversations through a translator. This place is a must-go for tea lovers and people who want to learn more about tea from first-hand tea farmers! As for me myself, I will definitely visit this lovely family again!

This homestay was one of the nicest experiences we had in Japan. We only stayed for one night but the whole family directly made us feel welcome. They are so warm and friendly. We tried their self produced tea, shared a lovely home cooked dinner, explored the tea farm and got some insights into the tea making process. This is not an artificially created place, but a real house with a real family on a real tea farm. Such an amazing experience is hard to beat! We definitely can recommend a stay at Yuichiro's place.

I had a wonderful time with the Sakyou family, and I really wish I had stayed longer! We exchanged multiple messages and they always answered quickly and when I finally arrived, exhausted from a long trip (there were some delays with the shinkansen), they immedialy made me feel at home. The house itself is really great, and the location is a tiny bit remote which is great for relaxiation but if you spend a long time it might be better to have a car. The homecooked meals were delicious and definitely a must to get the full experience! I also got to visit the tea garden, see the machines, try all of their teas, play with the children and spend time with the lovely cats! Thank you again for everything and I hope to come back in a few years, when the tea tree we planted together has grown =)
