John Lennon | Island


The Beatles star John Lennon is recognized as one of the greatest musicians of all time. He got fame and fortune from his successful career, but not a lot of people know that he also bought himself a private island off the coast of Mayo. Dorinish Island is a paradise located in Ireland that stretches out across 19 acres. It was bought by Lennon in 1967 and his lawyer said he was planning to build a lovely home with his wife Yoko Ono there. According to Ono, she and Lennon both fell in love with Dorinish at first sight. They felt as though the pressures of their careers were far away whenever they were there.

At present, there isn’t much information available about the island’s current status. Everyone knew who John Lennon was, everyone knew he had an island, everyone knew his band and his wife, and everyone knew about his passing. He is a legend, and all we can say is this island was so lucky to have had him as an owner.
