Paul can advise better but you are under no obligation to let these people in without proper notice. This landlord is clearly a muppet.

You may not want to upset the situation but as Colin says, you need to understand what the landlords intention are, because he may be selling it as an investment property, but either way its in his best interests to have your co-operation, but equally you are entitled to a bit of fair notice of a viewing.

But do follow what Paul says....you've also got to bear in mind where you stand if, for example, he sells with you as a sitting tenant, but then the new owner jacks the rent up or acts the goat somehow.....doesn't leave you many options, but depends on how your rent is funded....might be better to discuss with PaulP via PM.
