Inner and Outer Holm, which are roughly the size of nine football pitches, have gone on the market for just £300,000 and boast stunning views of nearby Orkney and the North Sea.
Like the 7.6-acre Outer Holm – it can only be reached by foot at low tide – making them the perfect isolated getaway.
However, the owner will not be entirely alone all year round. In the summer months the islands, which lie off the coast of Stromness, Orkney, are let for grazing, meaning they will have some nice, neighbourly cows.
The main house has a large living and dining room with French doors that open out onto the garden and the water beyond.
It also boasts polished wooden floors and an impressive brick fireplace and surround to keep the occupiers cosy in the winter months.
In the main house there is also a fully fitted kitchen, utility room, bath and shower room, conservatory, and four bedrooms.
The annexe has a further living room with kitchenette, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
The property is largely self-sufficient, with electricity being generated by a 6kw wind turbine.
Amazingly, the property has been on the market for over six months.
Andrew Bonner, of estate agent Lows in Orkney, said: “The property is beautiful and incredibly charming.
“The previous owners offered it as holiday accommodation.
“It’s a fantastic opportunity to have somewhere completely different.”
