Clean, golden straw strews the walkway inside a low wooden gate, cushioning the dirt path underfoot and providing a ready source of nesting materials for the occasional bold sparrow. A cluster of immaculate thatched cottages enjoys this vantage point, their brightly-curtained windows affording a pleasant view of the residents and visitors passing back and forth on their daily business.
