Following the release of the Sgt. Pepper album, the Beatles felt the need to own a private spot to get away from the roar of fans. What did they almost buy?

At a point when they were deep into the drug counterculture, and their career had just peaked with the release of the Sgt. Pepper album, the group was longing for somewhere they and their families could go and get away from it all. They had taken a cruise to Greece and during their stay, discovered 80-acre Leso Island which was for sale. They applied for a permit to buy it, but the sale never went through.
