The exposed beams are probably not historically accurate, but our tour guide told us that they have to make some compromises to give the people what they want.

. . . and we have been debating amongst ourselves: are thatched roofs pretty or not? Tell me what you think.

I like them - they have an earthy beauty of their own. Hobbits homes have thatched roofs don't they!?

I like thached roofs. I might build a house that way sometime...

Its also nice and cool, cause the heat goes right through it (at least the kind of thach they use here)

Hey ... don't insult the roof.

I own one of those bundles of thatch. Uncle Brian bought it for me when we were in England.
