The 19th-century hamlet has its own restaurant and village church, a main house and guest house with 15 bedrooms and 14 bathrooms, two swimming pools, a skate park designed by Johnny for his son Jack, and a Pirates of the Caribbean-themed wine cellar.

The island has been listed for sale for $55.5million (£39.9million), after previously failing to attract a buyer in 2015 and 2016.
