あしずりリゾート
Great views across the ocean. It's about 15 minutes by car to Ashizuri Cape. It is quite isolated so you really need your own transport to get there and it is best to do any shopping in Tosashimizu town before driving up. Accommodation is all self catering and the cottages and apartments are fairly well equipped. There's an outdoor swimming pool which is open in the summer season. "Resort" is bit of a misnomer, but for the price it's good value, especially if you're traveling in a family or group.
From the east, there are occasional direct buses from Kochi (4 hr 40 min; ¥4000) and the nearest train station Nakamura (1 hr 30 min).
