B&B overview
Rakusen is a private estate in Umegahata, Ukyo-ku, in northwest Kyoto, the same part of the city as Kinkaku-ji, Ryoan-ji and Ninna-ji. It takes one group at a time. For your whole stay, the 1,500㎡ Japanese garden, its tea house and a treehouse are yours alone. Each of the seven bedrooms has its own toilet, bathroom and open-air bath with a view. Four have a double bed and three have two single beds each, so the house sleeps up to 14. The dining room seats 24 at six tables and works as well for meetings and study as for meals. Children have a playroom of their own. The kitchen has commercial equipment and is for chefs only, so guests cannot cook there. If you book an in-home private chef, the chef uses it to prepare your meals. There is parking for 10 cars on site, and the house is best reached by car or private transfer. Registered under the Private Lodging Business Act, notification no. M260066305.
