The Retreat, located a 15-minute drive from JR Shin-Iizuka Station, is one of Kyushu's leading glamping facilities, offering a wide range of activities.

In addition to trailer houses, you can choose from four types of accommodation: tents that give you a camping feel, outlook cabins (cottages), and hotels. Children up to elementary school age can sleep for free if they share a bed with their parents, which is a nice perk. The tents are also equipped with heating, air conditioning, toilets, and showers, so you can feel safe even with small children.
For dinner, we recommend an outdoor BBQ surrounded by nature! Ingredients and equipment are provided, and the popular BBQ can be enjoyed empty-handed on a private deck. In addition to steaks and seafood, there is a wide variety of pastas and snacks. There are also children's dinner plates (additional charge) with hamburgers and other dishes, so the whole family can have fun♪
Campfire means camping. You can also roast and eat marshmallows, so children will be thrilled with this extraordinary experience. Popular activities include tennis, which can be enjoyed even on rainy days, yoga where you can feel the fresh air in nature, hiking in greenery, and mountain biking. The time you spend with your family with the same experience will remain forever in the hearts of children.
