Shiki Tangram is a brand new absolutely gorgeous house inspired by the Edo period architecture from around the time of the Last Samurai in Japan. The building has all the modern comforts you could possibly want fused with the beautiful tradition of Japan.
Shiki has the most stunning views looking directly up at the majesty of Madarao Mountain at Tangram Ski Resort and down the Valley to the extinct volcanoes of Myoko, Kurohime and Iizuna. It really is majestic. In the winter enjoy the skiing just a 30 second drive or a few minute flat walk to Tangram Ski Resort and in the Summer play golf at famous Tangram Golf course, one of the most beautiful courses in Japan. Shiki is located just next to the 18th hole so finish your game and start your BBQ for the perfect day.
Shiki has it's own fireplace, lovely kitchen and of course super comfy sofas and beds. With the quality and comfort guests of Snowball Chalet have come to expect, Shiki is a re-imagining of a Japanese ski holiday steeped in tradition and style.
Guests of Shiki have access to a complimentary 8 seater 4WD for the whole stay, picking up and dropping off o nearby Iiyama Bullet Train station just 101 minutes from Tokyo.
Of course Shiki is fully self contained but if you are feeling like you don't want to cook you can dine at one of the many restaurants in madarao just a 7 minute drive away, Tangram's yummy Soba restaurant or head to Myoko Village for even more variety just 15 minutes away.
