Cottage

A cottage is a dwelling, typically in a country or semi-rural location. In the United Kingdom, the term hut tends to denote rurally located one and a half storey assets, where on the second one has to walk into the eaves in sort to look from side to side the windows, which are generally located in dormers. This sometimes means that the eave timbers intrude into the actual living space, and quite often, particularly in new renovation, the pertinent timbers can be exposed enhancing the cottage experience. However, in most other settings, the term "cottage" denotes a small, often cozy dwelling, and small size is integral to the description, but in other places such as Canada, the term exists with no suggestion of size at all. In Canada, the term "cottage" usually refers to a vacation home, often located near a body of water. However, this is more commonly called a "cabin" in Western Canada, Newfoundland and Labrador, a "chalet" in Quebec, and a camp in Northern Ontario, New Brunswick and the adjacent US states of Maine, Vermont, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Northern New York.
