Professional house lifters have lots of hydraulic hoses and jacks. From
one location at the truck, they can lift a house using quite a few
jacks.

I still wonder about the rigidity, though. The slab floor wouldn't be
lifted with this approach.

  This might require that the cottage has at least a little
bit of torsional stiffness. Having to lift in simultaneously
in any more than say, 8-10 places might be difficult.
