Rugby World Cup Japan
Getting to the pointy end for the Rugby World Cup and just quietly haven’t the host nation Japan being doing well! The first Asian country rot make it all the way to the Quater Finals. Now facing off with the old nemesis South Africa this weekend. Just 8 teams remain and it is going to be hard to pick a likely winner at this stage
Nozawa Onsen is a great place to visit in between the matches or even for the whole time. So come on up and experience Japanese Country Hospitality at its best. There are a few pubs in the village showing the games on big screens and lots of fun activities to enjoy in-between games.
