Dent Station building, right next to the platform of England's highest mainline station, is up for sale. Present owner Robin Hughes writes:
"After 11 years of thoroughly enjoyable ownership, I am downsizing at Dent by retaining the Snow Huts and selling the Station which comes on to the Market on 1st June.
Dent Station is a fabulous property and restoring it and owning it as a holiday let over many years has been a great pleasure.We've had many lovely guests over the 11 years.
As some of you may know, later this year I will be opening Castle View Retirement Village Windsor www.castleviewwindsor.co.uk and the responsibility of running that will mean less time at Dent so I'm keeping the Snow Huts and selling the station.
It can be bought and used as fantastic home or holiday accommodation business. Hopper in Hawes and Thomson Hayton Winkey in Kendal are handling the sale.
This will only be the third time in its 140 year history it has come up for sale. A chance for a new owner to play station master at England's highest main line station.
