Hoshinoya Fuji

Nestled amongst the trees, the 'Cloud Terrace' is a network of wooden walkways and platforms, perfect for morning stretches, as well as alfresco sitting areas with stretched canvas roofs and hammocks hung between the pines. There's also a cosy library with a crackling wood-fire stove for the winter months. Further down the hillside, the restaurant serves imaginative versions of Japanese classics, all prepared in the open kitchen. Enjoy breakfast here or grab a quiche, freshly baked in the outdoor oven.

Wonderfully simplistic, the cabins are completely white inside with a large, pillowy bed at the centre. A wall of glass reveals dramatic views (even from bed!) and opens onto a sunken living room-style terrace and firepit, blurring the line between in- and out-doors. You could easily spend hours just soaking up the vista before you... The bathrooms are pristine and modern with a rain shower and gloriously deep bath. For breakfast, order a Morning Box to your cabin, and enjoy freshly-baked breads, omelettes, juices and jams in comfort.

Organised by the ‘Glamping Masters’, Hoshinoya Fuji offers a range of activities to venture into the wild and rekindle your adventurous spirit. Take your pick from trekking or cycling through the red pine forests, horse riding across the serene landscapes, and early morning canoe trips on Lake Kawaguchi. It's worth waking early to drift across the water as the sun casts a golden glow on the lake, Mount Fuji standing tall in the background. After dark, enjoy stargazing in a clearing as the scent of a bonfire fills the air.
