Sunday was a pleasant day weather wise at our Bolehill cottages near Bakewell (see here). One departure and one arrival but cottage already prepared.  A quiet day chatting to guests and jobs around the house. By the time the cottage arrived at 5.30, they have been before, it meant all the seven occupied cottages were previous guests. Monday by contrast was quite a dismal day. Drizzle and rain peppered the day and it turned quite humid. No arrivals or departures and our friends from Yorkshire were calling in for lunch on their way to a stay in a local hotel for a few nights so I popped over to the Chatsworth farm shop to get some lunch. In the afternoon we went to Buxton to do a Morrisons shop and on the way back we called in at our friends at Chelmorton.  Tuesday was a better day weather wise with a sunny morning but a bit more cloud in the afternoon.  One departure and one arrival and one cleaner here.  Tuesday handyman here too.  I gathered most of the information and figures for the Valuation return, that took all afternoon and guests arrived at 4.30.  In the evening we drove over to the Izaak Walton Hotel and met up with our friends for a very nice meal.  Wednesday was a fine sunny day with the temperature tempered by the breeze.  Cleaner with broken wrist called in for coffee and then Chris went back to her place to do some odd jobs and I followed behind making a detour to the recycling centre and then the Outlet Village before picking him up.  It was too busy for lunch at Edensor so we picked up some rolls from Chatsworth farm shop.  One arrival here at 3.30.  Later in the afternoon it was nice enough for a picnic so we parked at Over Haddon and walked the Dale to Conksbury Bridge.  There were sheep along the Dale and Blue disgraced himself again (see separate dog’s blog) then on to our picnic stop for a couple of hours with a lovely blue sky and warm evening sunshine.  Evening rounded off with a drink at the Lathkil.  Enjoy the photos.
