渋谷から電車で5分の池ノ上。ここに、書院造、囲炉裏、茶道の水屋をしつらえた、趣味人であった歯科医師の旧宅があります。書院造の和室で書道や茶道などを体験しませんか。

Q&A

For frequently asked questions, please see below. If you have any questions or special requests, please feel free to contact us via the contact form.

Yes, we accept VISA, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, Diners Club, and Discover.

Our services are available in both English and Japanese, catering to diverse guests in your preferred language.

A. Each session is about 60 to 90 minutes. For the combined calligraphy and tea experience, the calligraphy experience takes about 60 minutes, followed by 30 minutes for tea. If you make a reservation in advance, you will be able to use the facility exclusively for your own personal use, so if you have any special requests for time slots within the 90 minutes, please let us know in advance. Although the set start times are 10AM and 2PM, if you would like to schedule a different time, please contact us via the Contact Form. We will do our best to meet your requests.

A. Ink used in the calligraphy experience will not come out if it gets on clothes or belongings. It will come off the skin within a few days due to skin turnover. There could be unexpected splashes. So we recommend using the optional jinbei rental to prevent stains. Also, if you have active children with you, please take extra care to prevent stains.

A. Unfortunately, we do not offer a pick-up service and there is no parking available. We are a 2-minute walk from Ikenoue Station. There are steps within the premises and indoors, so it is not wheelchair accessible.

A. Definitely, yes! We are open for café service from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM on weekdays. We warmly invite you to stop by and enjoy a relaxing time.

A. The walk-in service for experiences without prior reservations is currently unavailable. Reservations can be made without a cancellation fee up to 24 hours (2 days for tea ceremony) before the start time of the experience. Please feel free to make a reservation!
