'Beautiful' UK island on sale for £1.75m with a castle, flock of sheep and a 42ft whale

People looking to escape their busy city lives may want to consider buying their own island which comes with its own castle and the skeleton of a massive whale.

The Isle of Vaila in Scotland's Shetland archipelago is up for sale after its owners of the last 30 years have decided to sell up.

The island, which is about 10 minutes by boat away from the Shetland mainland, boasts 757 acres, 6.5miles of coastline and a bell tower overlooking the sea.
