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.
