Rodmersham's Fruiterers Arms is on the market for £99,995.

Its current landlords, Tony De-Bell , 49, and Adrian Hall, 52, have lived at the Bottles Lane venue since October 2001 when they took over the lease.

The pub, which is owned by Enterprise Inns and includes two bars, a restaurant and four upstairs bedrooms, was placed on the market earlier this month.

Tony, who ran the Maypole in Borden for four years prior to moving to the Fruiterers, said when it happens, it will be a sad farewell.

He said: “There’s no bad reason or anything for leaving. We’re still enjoying it, but there comes a time when you decide to move on.”

Tony said it could be a long goodbye and expects to be running the pub for “most of next year”.

“We’ve got to wait to secure the sale which isn’t always guaranteed,” he said. “We’ll still be putting our heart and soul into the business until we leave.

“Who knows what the future holds? I’ve lived in a pub for 16 years and would love a bit of normality.”
