Continuing my series on architectural tours with Traditional Indian, Chic French, Spanish Style.. and this time, I’ve some of the prettiest Irish thatched roof cottages for you. I’m dreaming a family vacation in Ireland in one of these picturesque Irish cottages. I believe these roofs are thatched with reeds, and historically wheaten or oaten straw would have been used. I always loved thatched roofs as they are eco-friendly and it is a wonderful way to use dry vegetation. It also gives the home a rustic feel. I can imagine how cozy interiors would be. Well, with the addition of colorful gardens and greenery don’t you think these are ravishing?

I’m so glad to see thatch is still in use! I lived in GB for a while as a little kid and I remember being totally fascinated by seeing people repair a thatched roof. That was like 20 years ago now!
