      “雑踏の中の異空間”

      金鱗湖の朝霧がこの時期とても幽玄で湯布院を訪れる人も多く、それを覚悟で行ったのですが、宿の駐車場に入るまでの人の波にいささか辟易しました。でも宿に入ると一転、組子細工の調度品に囲まれ木のあたたかさに包みこまれるようでした。お部屋の雰囲気も自分のお部屋という感じで旅館独特の日本のお部屋という感じではありません。夕飯は和の繊細さを感じることができるお料理ばかりでイタリアでも修行された料理長とお聞きしてびっくりです。

      待合室や通路は天井が低く木造造りで落ち着きます。部屋はとても広く綺麗で、加湿器付。夕食は部屋食、朝食会場は個室でした。お料理は食材にこだわりがあり、本当に美味しかったです。量もないので丁度良い。お風呂や客室露天は落ち着いて入れます。アメニティ等は普通でした。離れなので、他の宿泊者の目が気にならない。誕生日旅行という事もあって、ケーキやプレゼントを用意して頂き感動しました。落ち着いて旅行を楽しめたので満足しています。

      3泊4日九州旅行の最終日宿泊。中国・韓国からの旅行者が道一杯に広がり旅館に到着するまでの間イライラしましたが部屋に案内されるとイライラは直ぐに吹き飛びました。清潔な和室は炬燵とエアコンで温ったか、別室に移ると二人入っても充分な露天風呂、無色透明の浴槽に映る樹木が風情あり。早速ワインを用意してジャブン、その時雪がチラチラ雪見酒を堪能。夜は会席料理「春寒」、凝った料理はそれぞれ美味しく戴いたのですが最後はギブアップ残念。朝食も美味しく普段一膳しか食べないのに2杯も食べてしまいました。11時チェックアウトでしたが、朝5時過ぎから降り始めた雪のため早々に旅立ち残念。次の機会に期待。そうそう宿泊した日が我々の30回結婚記念日、プレゼントを戴き有り難うございました。帰りの車の中でお風呂が良かった、あの料理は美味しかった等々福岡空港に到着するまで「草庵秋桜」さんの話がつきませんでした。

      料理自慢の宿だけに特に夕食は満足しました。朝食はあまり工夫のなかった内容だったのは残念ですが。全体的に満足できましたが、一つだけ不満というか納得できなかったのは、会計時に入浴税はともかく消費税までカードではなく現金で払うように要求されたことです。いろんな所に泊まりましたが初めての経験でした。特別な理由があるのでしょうか。そういう手間もあって、急いでいるときに会計に時間がかかったのが不満です。最後の最後にマイナスポイント大になってしまいました。
