The 380-acre island and venue is owned by music producer Nigel Frieda.
Osea Island has an intriguing history of being rented to high-profile names in music, which in recent years includes none other than Rihanna.
The island has a fully equipped recording studio and extensive accommodation, making it a popular pick for stars to record albums.
It reportedly costs £20,000 per day to rent.
