Overview

Wood Design Park Seto is a glamping site in the forests of Seto, with a gassho-zukuri traditional house relocated from the World Heritage village of Shirakawa-go as its symbol. Guests stay in glamping tents equipped with heating and air conditioning, a toilet and a bathroom, and the Western-style toilets have warm-water bidet seats. Dinner is a BBQ using Seto Sanroku beef and Seto pork, with the food and equipment all provided so you can arrive empty-handed, and for breakfast you can choose between the Jinenjo Gozen set meal and open sandwiches. Children's tableware is available, and the grounds also have a water play area and a craft space for pottery painting. Ghibli Park (Ai-Chikyuhaku Kinen Koen) is a 3-to-5-minute drive away.

Rooms

Guests stay in freestanding glamping tents fully equipped with heating and air conditioning, a toilet and a bathroom. Rakuten Travel lists the room types as a 24 sq m Twin (for 2-3 guests), a 24 sq m Japanese-style tatami room (for 2-3 guests), a 48 sq m Fours (for 3-5 guests) and a 48 sq m Japanese-style tatami room (for 3-5 guests). For the 24 sq m Twin and Japanese-style tatami room, the guidance is that the third guest be a child who can co-sleep, and for the 48 sq m Fours that the fifth guest be a child who can co-sleep; the 48 sq m Japanese-style tatami room is a room for 4. By tent name there are three types, Tent Nagomi, Tent Yasuragi and Tent Irodori, each split into a 2-bed type (for 2-3 guests, with two single beds) and a 4-bed type (for 3-5 guests, with four single beds). Rakuten Travel gives the total as 6 rooms. Nagomi is a Japanese-modern space filled with the scent of tatami, decorated with kimono obi sashes, and a kotatsu is set out there in winter. Yasuragi is a room colored by lace curtains in red, purple and other shades, and only its 4-bed type lets you stay inside the tent with a dog; pets cannot be brought inside any of the other rooms. Irodori is decorated with mushroom cushions, plants and wooden objects. Standard room equipment is Wi-Fi, charging outlets, air conditioning, a bathroom, a toilet, a washbasin, a refrigerator, a kettle and an air purifier with dehumidifying and humidifying functions, which is permanently installed rather than a rental item. The hair dryer and shower head are made by ReFa, and a ReFa hair iron is available to borrow. Amenities are a bath towel, bath mat, toothbrush, body soap, shampoo, conditioner and tissues; sleepwear is not provided, and you need to bring sleepwear for your children as well. The tents have a padlock, but there is no safe for valuables. There is no TV in the rooms, and guests are free to use the microwave in the management building.

Dining

Dinner is a BBQ using Seto Sanroku beef, a brand beef from the local city of Seto, and Seto pork; there is no need to prepare food or equipment, so you can arrive empty-handed. The BBQ is held on the deck outside your tent and can start at whatever time you like after check-in. There is also a room-only plan without meals, and guests who bring their own BBQ supplies can use a BBQ grill free of charge. Food, soft drinks and alcohol may all be brought in, and staff help you light the fire and give a short lesson. For breakfast you can choose between the Jinenjo Gozen set meal, built around wild yam, and open sandwiches, which come with three toppings: prosciutto and avocado, shirasu whitebait with pickled plum and shiso, and pizza bread. Children who have never tried wild yam can be switched to the open sandwiches, but on Rakuten Travel's standard plan, choosing the open sandwiches costs 1,000 yen per person, payable on the day. You apply for the breakfast you want by noting it in the remarks field when booking, and the menu changes with the season. Breakfast starts at 8:30 a.m., and any change to the content or the time is confirmed at check-in. Children's tableware is available. Allergy requests must be made at least one week before your stay; only ingredients for which a substitute dish exists can be accommodated, and where there is none the request cannot be met, with no reduction in the room rate in that case. Because the same kitchen handles all the ingredients, cross-contamination cannot be prevented.

Family-Friendly Features

You can stay here with a baby, but cribs are not provided, so babies co-sleep. Every room type on Rakuten Travel has a child rate. All-you-can-drink soft drinks are ordered separately and cost 500 yen for junior high school students and older and 300 yen for elementary school children. Every tent has a Western-style toilet with a warm-water bidet seat. Each tent has insect countermeasures in place, but out here in nature they cannot keep every insect out, so insect repellent spray and mosquito coils are placed in each tent, and insect-repellent items are also available to borrow. Each tent has a refrigerator, but no freezer. Luggage can be left at reception before check-in. Both the BBQ and the stay involve eating under a roof, so they go ahead in the rain, and the BBQ area has a roof, sunshades and fans. The nearest convenience store is about 5 minutes away by car, so it is reassuring to do your shopping before you arrive. If you use the fire-stand rental you can enjoy a private fire beside your glamping tent; campfires are not allowed. Handheld fireworks may be brought in and used in the designated area until 9 p.m., all year round, and a bucket and a candle for lighting fireworks are lent free of charge. Handheld fireworks are also sold in the management building. Fireworks that are loud or fly high, such as launch fireworks, fountain fireworks and firecrackers, may not be brought in or used. Smoking is not allowed indoors or anywhere on the grounds, and is limited to the designated smoking area. Check-in is from 2 p.m., with last check-in at 6 p.m.; if you will arrive after 6 p.m., you need to call ahead. Checkout is at 10 a.m. There is no early check-in or late checkout program, and since it is only possible depending on availability, you need to contact the facility. You cannot remain on the site after checkout for water play or anything else, and you must leave the grounds outside your reserved BBQ or accommodation times.

Play and Activities

The water play area is open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and cannot be used after sunset. There are no lifeguards, so children must be accompanied by a guardian. You need to bring swimsuits or clothes that can get wet, towels and a change of clothes, and a simple changing tent is available. In the craft space you can choose from eight kinds of pottery and paint them freely, at 1,000 yen per piece. There is also a coloring experience for an original acrylic key ring, and both experiences are booked on site. Play items such as stilts, spinning tops, badminton, Molkky and board games are available to borrow, in limited numbers. The management building also sells play items such as water guns for children.

Access

About 40 minutes from central Nagoya, or about 3 to 5 minutes from the Nagakute IC using the Tomei Expressway and the Nagoya Expressway.
