Agent Christie & Co is marketing the sale of a complex in Nether Wasdale incorporating the Strands Hotel, the Screes Inn along with a brewery and distillery. Asking price £1,700,000 for the lot.

Mark and Lesley Corr bought the Strands Inn in 2006 and a few months later set up the Strands Microbrewery. There are currently two full time brewers, Daniel Barwise and Dan Horsfield.

The couple also acquired the nearby Screes Inn, where their ales are also sold.
