Herm in the Channel Islands is about 1.5 miles long and less than half a mile wide. It has only 50 inhabitants, which are swelled by 80 staff during the holiday season, and now its tenants are selling the lease. Adrian and Pennie Heyworth, who have run the island for the past 28 years, have decided it is time to move on.
The decision will bring to an end the longest tenancy in Herm's history, dating back to 1949 when Mrs Heyworth's father, the late Major Peter Wood, took on the lease. Since 1980 Mr and Mrs Heyworth have held the lease of the island which is owned by the States of Guernsey.
