The owners of an “off-grid” Welsh island are looking for two wardens to live and work there.

The accommodation wardens on Bardsey Island (Ynys Enlli) off the coast of the Llyn Peninsula in North Wales will enjoy benefits including one boat trip to the mainland per month, according to the job advert.

Other benefits will include a shared food growing space and internet connection.

The island measuring 0.69 square miles has a population of 11 and is claimed to be the burial site of mythical wizard Merlin.

The Bardsey Island Trust is looking for joint applications from two individuals who are expected to live and work together.
