Wonderful shot. Great composion and perspective. Here in Norway a building like that would be called an estate or mansion or similar. A Norwegian mountain hut is traditionally very small. Well, obviously Spanish building traditions are different, even though we both have mountainous topography.

Bjørn in the Alps, and, to a lesser extent in the Pyrenees, these huts are inhabited in the summer by farmers who move their livestock to high pastures but do a little catering for hungry walkers. Some huts are commercially run and are much larger where walkers can stay the night and dine quite well.
Best wishes,

In southern Germany in th Algoy, the Hutte is a tradition. Some of them have been catering to the summer visitors for generations
