Friday was a dull day at our Bolehill cottages near Bakewell (see here). A warm day had been forecast but in the end we only got to 19C with a humid feel. Down to Bakewell first thing to get provisions for the weekend and banking etc. Two departures and two arrivals and one cleaner here. Cleaning took longer than anticipated but we got there in the end. Chris went to Matlock to get some iron work for new railings we will be installing in the courtyard. First cottage here at 3.30 and second one at 4pm. A damp evening and it was wet first thing Saturday. The forecast showed a misty start with it warming up later in the morning but in fact the sun came out sooner than expected. Three departures and four arrivals and two cleaners here. With cleaning underway by 10am all cleaning and most checks finished by lunchtime. Chris cut the lawns. Three cottages here by 3.30. We took adavantage of the sun and had a cup of tea and ice cream on the patio before the first of the thundery showers passed over. Final cottage here at 5pm then a couple more waves of thundery showers. Dogs were a bit reluctant to go out for their evening walk! Sunday was forecast to be another warm and sunny day but it didn’t live up to expectations. The breeze kept the edge of the temperature and it clouded up by 2pm. One departure but no arrivals. We thought we would go out for lunch and headed to Hartington. As it was still nice all the outside tables were taken so we had no trouble in finding a table inside the cafe. It was quite breezy by the time we got home and by 4pm it was raining. A disappointing end to the weekend.
