Places like Yufuin but closer to Kyoto?

Hello!

My parents and I are going to Korea, and I’ll be taking us on a family trip to Japan.

It will be my second time there, but first time for my parents.

My parents want to go to Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka, but my mom really really wants to go to a place like Yufuin (very small, peaceful, country vibes).

I currently have an itinerary that does include Yufuin except it’s really tight due to our short trip – we’d be taking the train to a different city everyday.

1st night: Tokyo (flying into NRT)
2nd night: Kyoto
3rd night: Osaka
4th night: Fukuoka
5th night: Yufuin (flying out of Fukuoka)

Just wondering if anyone knew of any similar places to Yufuin – small countryside vibes + nature + ryokans that might be closer to Kyoto?

I did take a look at Kobe + Hakone + Wakayama and they didn’t seem to be what we’re looking for.

Thought I’d ask here in case anyone might have some recommendations!!

Thank you in advance 🙂
