On a radiant day like today, it's tempting to set aside every chore and just bask in the sunshine that graces our beautiful Peak District countryside. Our holiday cottage guests seem to have the right idea, taking full advantage of the weather to explore the area with their furry friend in tow. Opting for a smart, last-minute self-catering holiday cottage booking, they're making the most of their weekend, with plans to visit the splendid Trentham Gardens and the majestic Chatsworth House before their departure tomorrow.
While the lure of a leisurely day is strong, duty calls for me as we prepare for the next changeover at Barks Holiday Cottage. Ensuring everything is perfect for our incoming guests is top priority, even on such a glorious day. However, I couldn't resist the allure of the field at Barks, if only for a moment, and was rewarded with the bees visiting the broom flowers in the new shrubbery.
Capturing this busy little visitor on camera was a gentle reminder that we all have our tasks to get on with, no matter how sunny the day.
So, as our current weekend guests relish the beauty and tranquility of the Peak District, and the bees continue their important work among the flowers, I shall dive back into my own work. After all, the effort of preparing our cottage for the next family or couple is pretty satisfying.
For those contemplating a last-minute getaway, consider Barks Holiday Cottage. Here, you can enjoy the freedom of a self-catering holiday, explore famous local attractions, and perhaps even capture your own special moments of nature's wonders, just as I did today.
