This reminds me of Ireland. I’d give it a go, they had those hung all over the place in the BnB’s I stayed in when I visit friends.
My favorite was Cavan where I literallly had to hunch over (I’m not a tall lad) to get my hair wet because of the roof angle.
If there’s no regulation on it, probably fine. Add a linger house and call it a day.

Reply to TIL that one of the few positive health effects of smoking is a drastic reduction of a person's risk of thyroid cancer. According to a Korean study of the health records of over 10M people, smokers have a 36% lower risk of thyroid cancer. Smoking and heavy drinking reduces one's risk even more. by EncyclopediaJake
So my dad (72) had thyroid cancer (squamous cells) which don’t originate in the thyroid. Both a heavy drinker and smoker for 50 years. Had a total laryngectomy after 4-5 months on a trach and peg.
So now he’s almost healed and cancer free, but I’ll never hear his voice again. (And he’ll never swim, but wasn’t much of a swimmer)
Don’t smoke, it’s not worth it.
