About Us

Our Story

We are an English and Japanese couple who met in Sydney, Australia, where we lived together for many years.

Introduced to Myoko through a Japanese friend, over several holiday visits we fell in love with the stunning beauty of the area. After deciding to move to Japan for an extended period, in 2018 we were lucky enough to discover this wonderful house, which we have since been running as Myoko Woodland Lodge.

Regardless of the season, this area of Japan has an incredible amount on offer, from world-class ski runs in winter to stunning cherry blossoms in spring to summer hiking, cycling, golfing, and outstanding local delicacies all year round.

We hope you enjoy Myoko and its surrounding area as much as we do and look forward to helping make your stay as pleasant and relaxing as possible.

Matt and Junko
