<<Admission ticket (entry to strawberry house only)>> This is a ticket for customers who will not pick strawberries but will only enter the strawberry house. ▼Plan introduction▼ * Customers who do not enter the strawberry house, such as customers who purchase souvenirs or smoothies, do not need to purchase an admission ticket. * Customers who apply for a strawberry picking experience do not need to purchase an admission ticket separately, as the "admission fee" is included in each strawberry picking plan. * If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. ▼Information about our farm▼ ★★Top ranking in the annual strawberry picking popularity ranking★★ (1st place in 2019, 1st place in 2022, 4th place in 2023, 2nd place in 2024: Hokuriku Koshinetsu area, Ikoyo survey) The strawberry picking house is located in a plateau area at an altitude of 1,000m, so the temperature difference between day and night creates strawberries with a rich taste. Although the harvest volume is reduced by the time-consuming cold-weather treatment (exposing the strawberries to the cold) and manual thinning (thinning out), the strawberries are produced with the artisan's skill and ingenuity to produce strawberries with a rich flavor never tasted before. The farm is located in the firefly village with a great view, surrounded by the majestic Mount Asama, about 10 minutes by car from Nakakaruizawa Station.

■ Charcoal grill in the hearth ■ Hearth…. It often appears in old stories. The hearth is in the hotel. Under the thatched roof. In the hearth, goheimochi rice cakes on skewers and river fish are slowly grilled over charcoal. Talk slowly with your family and friends until it burns. That talk makes charcoal grilling delicious. While talking, the fat drops from the river fish. However, don't be impatient. The charcoal-grilled delicious river fish waits carefully. Sometimes it's good to drink while watching it. The hotel has both cold sake and hot sake. There are also potatoes, wheat, and rice for shochu. Our homemade plum wine is also available. The conversation will be even more exciting. There are plenty of soft drinks, so even those who can't drink are okay! We have 100% juice from Nagano prefecture, our homemade plum juice, and our homemade medicinal tea.
