Yours for £500,000! An uninhabited Scottish isle so beautiful and teeming with wildlife it will take your breath away. The only problem: the weather's so harsh and unpredictable, it's easy to get marooned for days.

THERE is something splendid about standing on top of the rugged, lichened, 89-acre kingdom of Mullagrach; tasting the salt on my lips from the sea spray, watching the cormorants swirl, listening to the skylarks sing and knowing there's nothing but water between me and the North Pole.
