Yangyang 56st Pension

The bedding was clean, and you can tell they cared about the small details. The yard was decorated in a really charming way, too. I had a great stay, and the owners were so warm and kind that leaving felt like saying goodbye to a country home full of affection. It’s a great spot for a barbecue. There’s a stream nearby, which seems like it’d be nice to visit with kids when the weather warms up. Breakfast the next day was hearty, with dried pollack rice cake soup, and the kimchi was the best part. One tip, do your grocery shopping before you head back.

I spent one night here with my family during a trip to Yangyang. The private space and stylish interior really stood out, and everything felt clean, from the room to the soft hotel quality bedding. The owner was kind, too. Breakfast was freshly made dried pollack tteokguk, and it warmed me right up. There’s a barbecue on the private terrace, and the location is handy for both the valley and the beach. Being surrounded by nature made it easy to relax. I’d come back. | Travel YouTuber Jigubyeolsi Goljwi @joonimism

We had such a cozy, restful stay here with our baby. The beds were soft and comfortable, and we slept really well. The owner was incredibly kind and even made strawberry jam and fresh fruit juice for breakfast, which was lovely. When our baby’s older, we’d like to come back so he can run around on the lawn in front of the pension. It was a wonderful trip. 😍

It’s a seriously great place to stay. The unit is separate, so you get privacy, and there’s loads of space. They’d even switched on the heated mattress pad ahead of time in case it got cold. I liked the setup for having a drink while watching TV. Since it was cold, grilling barbecue and eating it in the kitchen worked perfectly.
