The Met office’s revised assessment to a wet British summer has come too late to affect the UK’s hospitality sector adversely, according to recruiters.

Jacqui Sterry, managing director at Mise en Place, told Recruiter: “It is so late in the day. People will stick to their original plans. They will stick to whatever they have booked.”

Paula Rogers, managing director at Admiral, adds: “I don’t think the weather will have a massive bearing on tourism, because of the pound and the Euro. Tourism will remain strong.”
