secluded cottage

Isolated rural dwelling

A secluded cottage is a small dwelling set apart from neighbors and traffic, typically in a rural or wooded setting.

The phrase evokes privacy, quietude, and escape from daily life: They rented a secluded cottage in the mountains for their honeymoon.

Real estate listings use it to suggest romantic isolation, though the actual degree of seclusion varies.
