A small inn with an open-air bath where you can enjoy Breathtaking view

Question

I'm planning a girls' trip to Yufuin. I want to relax in a small inn, not a large Ryokan (Japanese inn) or hotel. Can you recommend a nice inn where I can enjoy Breathtaking view from the open-air bath and taste the local cuisine?

This small inn has a total of 22 rooms in the main building and annex, allowing you to spend a quiet and relaxing time. All five baths in the inn can be reserved for private use, allowing you to fully enjoy the natural onsen(hot spring) directly from the source in a private space. The dinner menu, which includes steak, Shabu Shabu（Japanese hotpot）, and sukiyaki made with local Bungo beef, as well as an abundance of local seasonal ingredients, is also excellent.

This is a small-scale Japanese modern resort Ryokan (Japanese inn) that only accommodates 10 groups, and all rooms have a private open-air bath. Each room has its own unique charm, and the independent guest cottages guest rooms are cute, so you'll have even more fun choosing which room to stay in. The inn is surrounded by Mt. Yufu, so every room has Breathtaking view view, and the "upside-down" reflection on the surface of the open-air bath (like an upside-down Mt. Fuji) is very photogenic. This is a hot spring Ryokan (Japanese inn) recommended for those who want to take a slightly luxurious girls' trip.
