A livid pub landlord says he has spent £50,000 on a chalet for outside dining only to be told a week before opening it contravenes Covid-19 rules.
Jason Kalen, who runs The Marlborough in Wiltshire, fitted a bar, pizza oven and a TV in the wooden structure.
He said he followed Wiltshire Council s advice to comply with the regulations.
But it said government guidance had not changed and outdoor roofed structures had to have at least 50% of their walls open when in use, which his did not.
