Hey,
First off, hold old is your best friend? I am assuming he is around the same age. As he is your closest friend you could (if you feel ready) come out to him and tell him confidently that you are gay and see how he reacts and give him some time and space if the reaction isn't good but most people in the UK this day and age don't care, I always remind my straight friends that this means more girls for them! Ok letting him know your feelings for him, well i'd ask yourself 2 questions. 1 Are you friends with him just because you fancy him or were you friends first? 2 If he didn't reciprocate how would you feel if you lost the friendship?. Whatever you do I would never come out and then admit your feelings in the same conversation, this can be overwhelming for your friend.
All I'd say is don't rush into anything you might regret later on. Personally I wouldn't mind if one of my gay/bi friends said they liked me (I know one does at the moment and i'm waiting until hes comfortable enough to tell me) but I would have to be sure taking our friendship to the next level was the right thing to do. Hope it works out for you and feel free to send me a private message if you need any more help.

 Without getting emotional, tell your best friend you are gay when the time is right. Observe his reaction carefully. Then on another occasion tell him he looks cute. Again observe his reaction. Good luck !
