But n Ben is a lovely home from home cottage. Leslie and Heather are excellent hosts, friendly and always available for help when needed. The cottage is set in a quiet rural location. We loved watching the birds and red squirrels on the peanut feeder just outside our bedroom window. The cottage is well equipped with easy to use equipment.

"But n' Ben" is a charming cottage in a wonderfully tranquil setting – far away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. From here, you can set off on beautiful walks into the surrounding countryside. The house is spacious and exceptionally well equipped – nothing is missing. The interior is tasteful and of high quality; you can feel the loving attention to detail in every corner. Hosts Heather and Lesley are incredibly friendly and helpful. We felt at home from the very first moment and would love to return.
