We arrived at Ben's place having cycled all day through some extremely heavy rain and strong wind. The house had experienced a powercut which unfortunately lasted all night but we felt well cared for as our guests provided us with homemade soup and cookies, arranged for a generator to provide us with hot water and checked on us to make sure we had enough to be comfortable. The house was a great size, very spacious, extremely comfortable bed which had a beautifully view (we had a lovely time snuggled up watching the thunder and lightening) we really appreciated having a dry space to warm up and loved the balcony area for storing our bikes. it was a shame we couldnt experience this place with electricity and some sunshine but the weather is out of everyone's control and given the situation Ben did everything he could to make us comfortable.
thanks Ben.
the soup really did lift our spirits
