A lovely, clean, comfortable cottage.
A lovely, clean, comfortable cottage. Owners very friendly and welcoming. If you want peace and quiet along with an abundance of wildlife and great walks, the But'n'Ben is ideal. Only downside we found was no Wi-Fi or mobile coverage in cottage. Wasn't a problem for us but may be for others. Would like to return and would highly recommend.

A weeks break had at the But n ben, lovely hosts and relaxing atmosphere. Area ideal for getting away from it all, yet central enough to keep busy on days/nights out.
