Britain's highest pub, which regularly gets snowed in at its isolated location in the Yorkshire Dales, is up for sale. The 17th Century Tan Hill Inn has panoramic views and is on sale for 900,000 euros. The pub, 1,700 feet above sea level, was named the highest in the British Isles in the 1976 of the Guinness Book of World Records.
Landlady Louise Peace said: "It is a very, very demanding job. I really do wish the next owner the best." The listed inn has exposed beams and stone-flagged floors and is about five miles from the village of Keld in Swaledale. Ms Peace, 52, said: "I have never had two days the same since I became landlady 12 years ago. "This place gives you laughs, tears, peace and hell at times but there's never a dull moment."
