Wow! Alastair, did you see that the new Anne Cleeves book ( Re the detective Vera ) is set on Holy Island ! Here in Australia she was interviewed( ABC tv) and gave a bit of the history of Holy Island. She is here for a major writers festival.

Thanks Alastair- you must have some special spots & your particular island sounds like one. I knew a healer called Eleanor Lindsey who had a person living on Iona (a long time ago, ) travel to her home in Scotland to heal her ( as a child). Latter, Eleanor immigrated to Australia to work with the brotherhood of st Laurence 1960’s where the Anglican Diocese gave her awards for the ‘energy healing gift ‘ she used. I met her when in her 80s & she established a religious community called Iona in Victoria Australia. She was a funny old thing lol
