♨️Miso hot pot from a century-old miso maker and a Goemon open-air bath in rural Ohara

Kyoto · Ohara no Sato

A countryside minshuku in Ohara
1

A countryside minshuku in Ohara

  • 🏡An old guesthouse in the mountain village of Ohara, a special scenic district of Kyoto. The original buildings are repaired and kept rather than rebuilt.
  • 🌸The main garden holds a mountain cherry tree around 150 years old, and spring water from the hills is piped into the pond.
  • 🍁The garden and bath gardens are tended by a gardener who also works at Kinkaku-ji, with cherry blossoms, fresh greenery, autumn leaves and snow through the year.
Ohara Onsen and the Goemon bath
2

Ohara Onsen and the Goemon bath

  • ♨️A simple hot spring (hypotonic, weakly alkaline, low temperature) drawn from 1,175 m deep at about 120 liters per minute and 27.9°C at the source; it is heated and circulated with no added water.
  • 🛁There is an indoor bath, a semi-open-air bath and the Goemon-buro, an iron-cauldron open-air bath about 2 m across that fits up to four people.
  • 🕚Baths are open from check-in until 23:00 and from 7:00 to 8:50 in the morning.
Simple tatami rooms

Simple tatami rooms

  • 🛏️Traditional Japanese tatami rooms with air conditioning, heating and TV; 26 rooms in total.
  • 🚻Most rooms have no private bath or toilet, so guests use shared facilities; a few rooms with bath and toilet are available on request.
  • 🧺As a minshuku, guests lay out their own futons. Kotatsu tables are set out in winter and extra heaters can be borrowed at the front desk.
The original miso nabe

The original miso nabe

  • 🍲Ohara's signature miso hot pot was born here, made with house miso, Kyoto vegetables and local chicken.
  • 🥘Other miso-based pots include collagen miso nabe, white miso nabe, spicy miso nabe and Kyoto local chicken sukiyaki.
  • 🐗Seasonal pots include botan nabe with wild boar from Tamba-Sasayama in winter and sweetfish shabu-shabu in summer. Meals are served in the dining room, with self-service rice and miso soup.
Misoan, a miso maker of over 100 years

Misoan, a miso maker of over 100 years

  • 🫘Sister shop Misoan, across the street, has made miso for more than 100 years and has supplied the inn's miso nabe for 40 years.
  • 🧂Only domestic soybeans, koji, salt and Ohara mountain water are used; apart from crushing the beans, everything is done by hand with no additives.
  • 🛍️The shop sells several aged misos and shibazuke pickles, a specialty of Ohara.

Ohara's nature and nearby sights

  • ⛩️Jakko-in Temple is a 3-minute walk and Sanzen-in Temple is about 1.5 km away.
  • ❄️Ohara runs about 5°C cooler than central Kyoto, so summers are cool and winters are cold.
  • 🦟Being surrounded by nature, insects do appear; mosquito coils and bug sprays are available at the front desk.
