What is the best arrival day for weekly bookings

Hi

I am in the process of setting up a new listing, which will be set to weekly stays (minimum 7 nights). The property has 5 beds in Scotland, UK, and will be live over the summer (peak season).

I have restrictions on the changeover days with the cleaner's availability, but it will likely be Saturdays or Sundays (there is a potential option for Wednesdays).

Does anyone have experience in weekly stays and a view of the best arrival day of the week? Or any UK-relevant analysis on this?

Any insights would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Natalie

Hi! 
My first question is why keeping your bookings to focus on wedding parties?

Requiring 7 day bookings would shoot me in the foot so to speak. 
I have hosted bride & their bridesmaid & they check in usually Wednesday if the wedding is over the weekend.  Turnover days on a Saturday or Sunday does not seem prudent as most weddings here in the States are Friday night, Saturday or Sundays. 
If 7 days needs to be your only option then go with Wednesdays. 
Keep those weekends fully open is my thought.
The best of luck!
