The country is more beautiful than a town and more pleasant to live in. Many people think so, and go to the country for the summer holidays though they can not live there all the year round. Some have a cottage built in a village so that they can go there whenever they can find the time.
The village green is a wide stretch of grass, and houses or cottages are built around it. Country life is now fairly comfortable and many villages have water brought through pipes into each house.
