Eight UK thatched cottages that define ‘cosycore’

Alamy(Credit: Alamy)Blackhouse thatched cottage in the Hebrides, ScotlandMany thatched cottages in the Hebrides are simple, single-storey structures called blackhouses or taigh-dubh (their name in Gaelic). The term blackhouse probably derives from the fact that these cottages originally had no windows.

The buildings' rooves normally have a turf base covered with thatch. These layers are traditionally stripped off in June and used as manure to cover local crops.Peter Landers Photography(Credit: Peter Landers Photography)Thatched…
