Taransay owners plan to return Castaway island to its wild state

Mr Kelliher said: “We want to get it to the state of what it was like before intensive agriculture and before intensive grazing, which has taken a toll on the Island.

“It would’ve once been forested. It would’ve been rich in flora and fauna.

“Unfortunately, that’s all gone now and so we would like to recreate it.”

There are trees over the sea on the Borve Lodge Estate planted by Mrs Kelliher’s father 40 years ago.

She said: “That’s now a beautifully thriving forest with lichen, moss, insects and birds.

“So we know what it can look like in 40 years time.”

The Kelliher’s have also teamed up with a company offering safari-style adventure holidays to help boost tourism in the area.

Wild swimming and abseiling are among the activities
