==Ireland== [[File:Dunlough IMGP4460 (2).jpg|thumb|A common sight in the west of Ireland – a 19th-century stone teachín – in Carrigmanus, [[County Cork]]]] Irish cottages, known as {{langx|ga|teachín}}, were historically the homes of farmworkers and labourers, but in recent years the term has assumed a romantic connotation especially when referring to cottages with [[thatch]]ed roofs ({{langx|ga|teach ceann tuí}}). These thatched cottages were once to be seen all over Ireland, but most have become dilapidated due to newer and modern developments. However, there has been a recent revival of restoring these old cottages, with people wanting a more traditional home. Today, thatched cottages are now mostly built for the tourist industry and many can be let out as accommodation.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Travelmania-ireland.com |url=http://www.travelmania-ireland.com/cottages.php |url-status=usurped |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160314054447/http://travelmania-ireland.com/cottages.php |archive-date=14 March 2016 |access-date=12 February 2021 |website=www.travelmania-ireland.com}}</ref>
