Outer Hirafu Village, Niseko, Hokkaido, Japan

Yanagi House is a spacious house, ideal for families situated on the edge of Hirafu.

With a modern interior, full western kitchen, good-sized bedrooms and free wifi, Yanagi is roomy enough for people to disperse and avoid the cramp of central Hirafu apartments.

If the free view-on-demand TV provided is not retiring enough, try catching up with family and friends around the gas fireplace.

The large dining and lounge area upstairs, separate media room downstairs, and wide open forest around the house make Yanagi House a perfect retreat for families and groups who value space.

Yanagi House is 2.5km from the center of Hirafu, but within walking distance of a bus stop at 750m. For added convenience, we suggest renting a car which can be organized through our staff.

Niseko, Hokkaido, Japan

A world-class ski destination, Niseko receives 14m of snow per season on average. Offering 38 lifts, 4 developed, inter-linked resorts, 47km of groomed slopes, 1000m of vertical, and the longest run stretching 5600m, Niseko is the largest of Hokkaido’s ski areas, and overall the most well-rounded winter resort on the island.
There is a good mix of groomed runs for all levels, from first-timers through expert powder hounds. There is also a terrain park with half-pipes, table tops, round quarters and rails etc… a variety of terrain to suit boarders of different abilities.
That being said, novices going down the slope for the first time may want to avoid the crowds in peak powder season and consider some of the quieter times (spring).
