Sounds like a lot of villages here.
Unfortunately, most are now full of holiday homes - only occupied a few months of the year.
A dead village means the village shops, pub and post office close, so it turns into a ghost town.
But don't worry about the locals - they can't afford the houses anyway so you won't find any.
