2021.03.10

Rufu Co., Ltd., which operates a rental inn for a whole old folk house, will repair a one-story old folk house in Sudama Town, Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, and will open the grand opening of the old folk house inn “Rufu Gokyonoie”.

Kominka Rukufu is a renovation of an old folk house that was built around 100 years ago in Yamanashi Prefecture, and operates three inns for renting one old folk house.
Rufu prepares different “fire experience”, “time experience”, and “land experience” for each inn, and deepen the history that remains in each area and home, and experience unique to the area. It is a hands-on accommodation facility that you can enjoy.

This time, we will renovate a 137-year-old folk house in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, which is a famous water producing area, and will open the grand opening on March 12, 2021 as “Rufu Gokyonoie”.

What is Sutamacho Hishi, Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture?

Sutamacho Hishi is located in the southeast of Hokuto City. Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, is said to be Sanshi Suimei (the sun shines, the mountains look purple, and the river flows cleanly. Beautiful mountain water). Until 1955, charcoal-grilling was used as a household fuel. There are many people, and it is recorded in the literature that clear smoke of “purple” was rising from the mountainside almost every day.

In addition, the specialty purple flower beans (precious plateau flower beans that grow only in cool areas) are rare products that can only be cultivated in the “Masutomi district” of Sutama-cho and the “Kiyosato district” of Takane-cho in Hokuto City.

We have opened an old folk house inn that takes advantage of the goodness of the area of Sutamacho Hishi.

For generations of ancestors, rice farming, silkworm farming, and winter are a living cultural property left by part-time farmers who used to live in civil engineering. I will.

After enjoying the experience of the land, you can enjoy the “bonfire” while gazing at the starry sky in the garden.
Experience a bonfire that you can’t easily experience at an old folk house inn.
