Donkey years ago I used to stay at - I don't know how to even describe them.
They were little white wooden free-standing motel rooms with bath.
They were built in a "craftsman" style.
I see that they were generally called "tourist courts" in the US.
I can't seem to find a photo of exactly what I mean.
Most of the photos show strict rows or even semi-attached.
The ones that I'm thinking of were more sprinkled on a hillside by a highway.
When I stayed there the breed was already dying.

I'm staying in the woods, the Utrechtse Heuvelrug, the
type of cottage I'm in is the only type of cottage that's semi-detached. It's also not updated yet; all the other types of cottages have been slowly updated in recent years, only this type and the apartments still need updating. So it's dated, tired and worn. But that's reflected in the price. I like the location at the edge of the park, it's quiet, but still within easy walking distance of the amenities.
They finally changed to free wifi and all cottages have their own router, so there's a good connection. Also the water pressure is a 10/10, so even if the cottage is very 1980s and rough around the edges I'm happy.
I eventually found the manual and was able to make a warm snack.
