Thatched cottages at Grantchester.....

A very wet day so spent some time driving around the countryside, I think this is one of my favourite villages.

Lovely composition. I always love thatched cottages as I grew up in one

[Allison Williams]

Love the look of thatched cottages. Does the thatching have to be replaced often?

[Alexandra DG]

these look so lovely....

[Saxa van Eijnsbergen]

So nice those thatched cottages, I like it that they are all different.

@rosiekind Oh lucky you there is something special about thatched cottages

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Graham Thresher]

[Maggiemae]

Aren't they gorgeous - so well preserved! This must be a tourist street!

[Pyrrhula]

Great capture of this lovely and beautiful cottage

[Terry]

[Rick Schies]

That is really a uniuqe look, very nice

[Louise & Ken]

In a setting like this, *no one* lives in a small house! (Like you, there's something captivating about a beautiful thatched roof!)

[Carole Imes]

How enchanting they are. We see nothing like this around here. Lovely capture!

[carol white]

A beautiful,typically English scene!!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Looks like the villages around here in Gloucestershire. Nice capture of this thatched cottage.

@allie912 The thatch has to be replaced between 20-25 years, thank you for your comment Allison

This is definitely to my taste and would have loved to live in a thatched cottage. But being married to a liability insurance claims investigator (now ex but still in the same mindset) who knows all the pit falls, just no chance at all! Nice shot!
