Recommended for cat lovers! There is an inn where you can enjoy seafood along the coast of Miyagi Prefecture, and two mascot cats will welcome you. The guesthouse Tsunomiyaso is also run by a fisherman, so you can enjoy freshly caught seafood. It is also along the route of the Michinoku Coastal Trai...

Signboard cat Mike-chan and Kimi-kun

The signboard cats, Mike-chan (calico cat) and Kimi-kun (tiger pattern), will welcome you at the inn "Tsu no Miyaso". It is said that both of them came out of nowhere to Tsunomiya-so and settled down after becoming comfortable.

Mike-chan and Kimi-kun are two animals with different personalities. Mike-chan was the first signboard cat of Tsunomiya Manor, but she is a shy girl and has a gentle personality. Kimi-kun loves people and likes to be held. It is so friendly that I think, "Are you a cat?" When guests arrive, they greet them, and when they leave, they see them off.

Seafood hospitality unique to a fisherman's inn

The reason why it is so comfortable may be that the couple at the inn are kind and always smiling. The fisherman husband raises oysters, wakame seaweed, and sea squirts, and on days when sea urchin fishing is allowed, he and his wife work together to make a living and deliver freshly caught seafood to customers.

Dinner with plenty of freshly caught ingredients is more than you can eat! It's unique to an inn run by a fisherman.

The next morning after enjoying plenty of seafood, miso soup filled with the deliciousness of seaweed and shellfish soaked into the morning after drinking a little too much is irresistible as a fisherman's meal. If you eat fresh Mekabu over rice, it will be a healthy way to start the day.

You can enjoy a relaxing time with a panoramic view of the sea

From the room, you can see the fishing port where the fishermen's boats are docked, the islands rich in nature, and the vast sea and sky. You will be healed just by watching this scenery slowly. The inn itself is by no means a new inn that retains the nostalgia of the Showa era, but because it is an inn that feels somewhat nostalgic, it may be perfect for relaxing and refreshing your mind and body.
