A private island just a few miles from Sir Paul McCartney's Scottish estate has had £100,000 slashed from its price.
The 19-acre Gigalum Island - off the west coast of Scotland - boasts a modern house, private beaches and its own jetty with breathtaking views of the surrounding islands.
It was put on the market last summer at the price of £550,000 - a bargain considering the privacy, stunning surroundings and Sir Paul's Mull of Kintyre home 15 miles away.

The island sits just a stone's throw away from the Isle of Gigha - the most southerly Hebridean Island, with a population of just 110.
Gigalum Island is just 15 miles from Mull of Kintyre, where Sir Paul lives, though it would actually take about two hours to get there unless the new buyer owns a helicopter
