Residents of Knoydart peninsula, which is only accessible by boat or 18-mile hike, awarded grant to buy Old Forge pub
Mainland Britain’s remotest pub is set to be placed in the hands of its local community after tensions emerged with its Belgian owner.
Residents of the Knoydart peninsula on Scotland’s west coast have been awarded a grant of more than £500,000 by the Scottish Land Fund to buy the Old Forge pub, which is accessible only by boat or a roughly 18-mile hike across peat bogs and mountains.
