Forest is a natural source of timber, which may be used for building small, single-family houses. The traditions of using timber in the process of building are very old. In the past, wooden cottages were a natural element of a village landscape. It was so due to the fact that timber was an easily accessible building material and a great insulator (it kept warmth). Today such houses most often belong to well-off people (they are used as holiday houses) and to those who love tradition.
