The 60 acre Challis Island is actually in the middle of the English countryside of Cambridgeshire and was built from scratch on a lake situated on a private estate. The owner loves pirates so much that he has themed the island to ensure that it looks and feels like pirate living and it even has its own fully-working pub called the Black Dubloon. The project was put together by Master Wishmakers who specialise in making the dreams of wealthy people come true.
