we just spent a fantastic week at Ben Hennie. Completely loved it there and would have been happy to stay longer as it was so peaceful. We felt relaxed, and enjoyed everything about the layout and the decor of the cottage complete with piano. there were additional touches which were appreciated too including the wild flowers in vases, candles, and the quality welcome pack. Our only comment was that the mattress was softer than we are used to - but that's a matter of taste I know.
