夏说英语新闻晨读 第262期:酒吧高处不胜寒

 本期内容：
Britain's highest pub, which regularly gets snowed in at its isolated¹ location in the Yorkshire Dales, is up for sale. The 17th Century Tan Hill Inn has panoramic² views and is on sale for 900,000 euros. The pub, 1,700 feet above sea level, was named the highest in the British Isles³ in the 1976 of the Guinness Book of World Records.
Landlady⁴ 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."
