A group of Australians are among about 30 people stranded at Britain's highest pub, Tan Hill Inn, after heavy snowstorms cut off access to the remote Yorkshire Dales location.
Several Australia ns are among about 30 people snowed in at Britain’s highest pub after an Arctic blast swept across Europe, sending the mercury tumbling well below zero and blanketing much of the country in heavy snow. Customers who had trekked to Tan Hill Inn in the remote Yorkshire Dales , which is 528 metres above sea level, have been holed up in the world-famous pub along with pub staff since being cut off on Saturday.

The UK’s Met Office and Health Security Agency issued amber “danger to life” alerts for northern England ahead of the blizzards. More than 4 millimetres an hour fell over Yorkshire over the weekend and into Monday, following torrential rain late on New Year’s Eve and into New Year’s Day, leading to homes being evacuated in many parts of the north-west. Tan Hill Inn management said there was enough food for about a month for visitors and around two weeks’ worth of beer. Those locked in, including a four-year-old child, have played cards and board games to keep entertained, while a young boy performed improvised dance routines to the group he was travelling with.on London’s West End on Monday as part of their three-week trip visiting family in the UK. They aren’t sure they’ll make their flight home on Saturday. Members of a Mountain Rescue team help to clear cars from a snow drift near Ribblehead, in North Yorkshire, England, as large parts of the UK face heavy snow and freezing rain.Paul, 52, who is also travelling with his 22-year-old son, sister-in-law, four-year-old nephew, and two friends, said he had never seen real snow before this holiday. “I think it’s hilarious, I love it”
