One of the best named is Osea Island, a private island in Essex which has been visited by a number of A-Listers.
Rihanna, Stormzy and Daniel Radcliffe have all been spotted there, although the public can stay by booking a night at one of the hotels or cottages.
They said: "In the middle of the Blackwater Estuary, with faint echoes of Nantucket and Martha's Vineyard, sits 380-acre Osea, reachable only around low tide along an ancient Roman causeway."
The island has been owned by Nigel Frieda for more than 20 years, a music producer behind The Rolling Stones and Sugababes.
