Accommodations
Ikoi no Mura Shimane ~ Healing Highland Resort ~ (いこいの村しまね)
Ikoi no Mura Shimane is a beautiful resort hotel perched atop a hill near the border of Shimane and Hiroshima prefecture. At 540 meters (~1,770 feet), it offers breathtaking views of the basin below from every room. In the fall if the weather is just right, guests can catch a view of the “sea of clouds” phenomenon that carpets the valley below. There is also a shared bath guests can indulge in while taking in the scenery.
There is a gift shop in the lobby where guests can purchase local souvenirs, and a restaurant on the ground floor to enjoy lavish meals. Conference, dining rooms and an auditorium are also available for rent, making Ikoi no Mura Shimane an ideal location for events and groups.
With tourist attractions such as the top-class slopes of Mizuho Highland Ski Resort, ground golf, and restaurants serving Ohnan’s A-Class Gourmet food just a short drive away, Ikoi no Mura is perfect for a relaxing weekend getaway.
