Visitor Cottages

Newly built Visitor Cottages. One blue, two olive, and a partial view of one beige cottage are shown. The cottages have solar panels on their roofs. There is a small street in front of the cottages. There is a forest behind the cottages, and some young trees planted in the front yards. The bright, blue sky above is mostly clear, with a few clouds.
