message: Is it really necessary? Doesn't it seem a little POV-y to anyone else? I'm planning to remove it if there's no objections. --Absenteeist Ⓣ Ⓒ 03:26, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

message: An island described in her Famous Five novel series is accepted as more than analagous to Brownsea, with references of "whispering trees" and a "wailing cliff". I am thinking of adding a paragraph on this. GerixAu  (talk) 07:35, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: It is my understanding that the reason why the John Lewis Partnership was allowed to lease the castle/house as a hotel is that they donated some of the funds needed to allow the island to be transitioned to the control of the National trust.  But I don't have a public reference for this to allow it to be put into the main article.  Any references?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:B378:AC00:4557:7D54:813A:1A3 (talk) 23:56, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
