A CHANCE to bag a free house and £70,000 salary on a secluded island could be yours – but you’ll have to find someone willing to come with you.
The dream opportunity has opened up on Scotland’s breath-taking Isle of Islay, better known as ‘Whisky Island’.

The island is famous for its world-class distilleries, rugged beaches, and jaw-dropping scenery.
But this isn’t just a getaway – a private estate is on the hunt for a couple to live and work on its sprawling grounds.
The catch being that you’ll need to bring someone with you,
One of you will handle housekeeping duties, while the other takes on the role of a gardener and driver.
The housekeeping gig comes with responsibilities like keeping the property spotless, managing staff, running errands, and even cooking now and then.
The gardening role includes tending the grounds, trimming hedges, and ferrying guests around the island.
Applicants need a driving licence, must be happy to work flexibly during busy times, and should be comfortable with dogs — your furry friends can even tag along if you move in.
The perks include a rent-free, three-bedroom home on the estate, complete with a lounge, kitchen, and family bathroom.
Council tax is covered, though you’ll have to sort your own utility bills.
The job also includes an impressive £70,000 annual salary to be split between the couple.
When you’re not working, you can enjoy everything Islay has to offer, from iconic whisky distilleries like Lagavulin to picturesque villages such as Bowmore and Port Ellen.
The estate will host private retreats, weddings, and exclusive events, offering the chance to rub shoulders with high-profile guests.
Nestled in the Inner Hebrides, Islay is a slice of heaven for anyone who dreams of trading the rat race for rolling hills, sandy shores, and a tight-knit community.
You can apply for the job on Greycoat Lumleys website.
Meanwhile, It seems more and more Brits are swapping out the city bustle for a quiet island life.
One family has decided to settle down on a tiny island that you can only access twice a day.
Elsewhere, a woman has revealed how she managed to live on a “heavenly” island for free while only working 24 hours a week.
But not all UK islands are ‘heavenly’.
For those looking for a scare, the UK is home to some very spooky islands – and there is one you can only get to by hopping in a kayak.
