Solar Power Questions

I need to find a website or just be able to calculate the number of solar panels needed for my camphouse.

I also need to know what type of inverters are needed, do they differ with wattage, etc. Also, is there a certain type of shutoff switch for the batteries once they are fully charged, and is there a shutoff to prevent too much drainage from the batteries.

How many batteries are needed and how many solar panels needed to charge each battery.

We have an average of 6 hours strong sun daily. Panels would be stationary.

Our house uses 1900kwh monthly maximum, so I calculated the camphouse would use less than 1100 max, but probably less than 600kwh monthly.

Any ideas where there is some good reading on this subject or any other advice?

I was told about several books but the ones I've read don't go into this part of solar energy.
