The UK's remotest bar is hiring

Convincing candidates to relocate for the perfect role can be a challenge at the best of times, but spare a thought for those looking to fill a role at the Puff Inn - a bar on the island of Hirta, located 112 miles west of mainland Scotland.

Not only is the island remote, it hasn’t had any permanent residents since 1930 – in fact the Puff Inn has the title of the remotest bar in the UK.

Once a hangout for drunken sailors, the bar – which is named after the nearby colony of puffins - was eventually closed to the public in 2015 - The Times reports.

Despite this the bar can house up to 20 patrons a night, mostly Ministry of Defence staff from the local missile monitoring station.
