I am not good at guessing, but I'll post this place. Because the scooter doesn't provide much information, I am posting a second.

This is the closest I could get, which I am fairly certain is only similar and not the actual spot. https://images.app.goo.gl/KN574zUw9cwLRzsH8 |

No idea what was the place, but googling gives mass of same looking willages/towns. It could easily be that this building is no more, or just in different use and this "parking" could be filled with another building. I used 2 nights on this mystery of mine without any luck. |

fleece, the windows suggest anglosphere. The chimneys make me think it's in Europe, not in America. Channel Islands perhaps. (Never been there.)
