Those stone cottages are about 700 years old, so yes. Modernizing a Cotswold cottage is a challenge, even when it isn't a listed historic structure.
I heard they have very low ceilings as people weren't that tall 700 years ago. In my country when people get married we usually wish them a "stone house" as a sign of long and durable relationship. Most traditional houses around here are made of wood and clay, they are durable, but not as durable as stone. Not many people preserve them as they don't know how to upkeep them, hence most houses are rather new builds.
