It's probably only so complicated in my mind!

Thanks. Nice to see Garmin have limited options. Following your example
there's 339 ways in the UK tagged tourism=chalet and not building=* and a
cursory glance suggests many/most are groups of holiday homes. That's many
more than are tagged leisure=resort so it's well used, at least where
there's limited facilities.

imagine some would quibble about whether the latter have sufficient
facilities to qualify.
