Japanese Culture. New England Tradition.

Jason and Makiko have returned from Japan and opened KAEDE (Ka-eh-day)  on Townhill overlooking historic Ipswich, Massachusetts.  Located in the historic Coburn Home (1845), KAEDE combines the charm of Japanese culture with New England’s history and tradition in this Federalist style building.  Come enjoy a tasteful fusion of Japanese and New England hospitality, savor a hearty western breakfast or sample some traditional Japanese fare.  We are here to host you for your stay in Ipswich.

Amenities include:

-10 individually and tastefully appointed rooms, all with private bathrooms

-full breakfast cooked to order from a menu of western options or you can try the Japanese breakfast (7:30am to 9:00am unless otherwise arranged)

-all rooms include air conditioning, access to hair driers and irons, wireless Internet

-softdrinks and tea always available in the dining area

-plenty of space downstairs to enjoy a good book or a stimulating conversation

If you are interested in tasting a bit of Japanese fare, try one of Makiko’s delicious Japanese breakfasts:

Or maybe you would prefer something from the western style.  No worries, various omlets, stuffed French Toast, pancakes of all kinds, and waffles are available from the menu.  If you are lucky, you’ll be here when Makiko makes her scones.

Relax in the den on The TATAMI sitting area:

Take a look at the rooms, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.  We certainly hope you have the chance to visit us in Ipswich in any season, and we look forward to the opportunity of hosting you.

Sincerely,

Jason & Makiko
