If you’ve ever dreamed of living and working rent-free on one of the UK’s most breathtaking and remote islands, while getting paid for it, this could be the ideal opportunity for you and a partner or friend!
Greycoat Lumleys, an international domestic staffing agency that matches people with the right staff for their homes, has advertised a position for a couple on the Isle of Islay in the Scottish Inner Hebrides.

With just 300 permanent residents, this peaceful island is the perfect escape from the busy city life.

You’ll get your own rent-free house on the estate, which has three bedrooms, plus front and back porches.
You could even bring a dog! On top of the house and salary, the job includes a car and mobile phone for work use.
The job listing mentions: "The location has flights, ferry services, and road links, with a strong local community, making it a fantastic place to live, surrounded by stunning scenery."
