A busy day. To start with two cottages departed our Bakewell cottages with one due back in later. One cleaner up to turn round cottages. My inspector arrived just before 11am and the inspection took just over two hours. First the ‘paperwork’ side. I have to show our Public Liability Insurance certificate, our fire risk assessment and logs and our access statements. She checks all the details on file are correct and then I took her on a tour of the cottages. She looked for work we have carried out since the last inspection and does random checks on equipment, including pillows and mattresses. Despite the fact there was only one cleaned cottage to inspect she is able to asses our standards of cleanliness. Overall she was happy with what she saw and we should receive our written report and confirmation of grades in about a month or so. A spot of lunch then a check on the cottage needed for today. Chris brought a car load of belongings back from his parents so we spent a few hours sorting that out. Had dinner and finally sat down about 9pm. Guests were held up on motorway so didn’t arrive until after we went to bed.
