Gagyeongjae, or House with a Beautiful View, is a place with a thatched roof and an unhindered view. Guests can enjoy the view of natural environment over the window, with cool breeze freely flowing in the rooms. There are five rooms in total including Anchae Sangbang, Sarangchae Upper Room and Lower Room, Ondol Red Clay Lower Room, and Door Room. Guests in Anchae can use the central porch, whereas guests in Sarangchae can take advantage of the central floor as well. Ondol Red Clay Room is popular; it is heated by the owner himself through the traditional fireplace outside the room. The room, however, requires reservation at least 2 days in advance. Air conditioners were recently installed in the hanok. Additional fees are separately charged in summer, but it is just great to enjoy air conditioning in a hanok. Note that reservation and inquiry over the phone is faster and more convenient than that on the website. There are many restaurants and places to experience in Hahoe Folk Village. It is a nice place to enjoy many things and just relax.

The swallows’ nest is still there under the eaves, and sunset views from the wooden terrace of the sarangchae (men’s house) are a dreamy experience.

Damyeonjae is a hanok accommodation located in Hahoe Village, Andong. It was built in the 1980s but faithfully implemented the appearance of a traditional hanok. The chimney rising behind the yard and the tiles which line the roof are excellent enough to be considered a cultural asset, and the wood used for the beams and the cheongmaru is also very luxurious. Uniquely, it was built in a 'c' shape with the gate and haengnangchae moved to the edge of the yard, rather than a square shape like the traditional hanok in the Gyeongsang region. Thanks to the open view to the south, the entire Andong Hahoe Village and Hwasan Mountain can be viewed from the yard. Damyeonjae is the home of Korean actor Ryu Si-won, and his is known to have spent his childhood here. In 1999, Queen Elizabeth II of England experienced Korean culture and received a 73rd birthday award here, making it even more famous. Damyeonjae is currently operated as a hanok stay where only one group can stay each day. The kitchen and bathroom are modernly decorated to add convenience.
