Are there any real jobs like in 'The Shining'?

Question

I'm leaving my current job in about a year, and I've always harboured literary ambitions that I have never had time to fulfill - I write a lot in my job but its not creative writing and it exhausts that my part of my brain - Anyway, I saw 'The Shining' again last night (the Jack Nicholson vers.) and I was thinking wow - thats the job for me - obviously except for the whole spooky murder type thing. Y'Know a job with lots of isolation and free time that lets a writer concentrate and work on a project while keeping up with the bills - like a hotel winter-watch person... or like when Jack Kerouac worked one of the mountain supply posts for six months on his own.... any ideas?? I live in UK but could travel. Ty. a.

Did see a job advert on the caterer last year for a caretaker for a small scottish island over the winter. Duties included light maintenance work and opening the bar for the locals two nights a week. Basic min. wage but it's not like you'd get chance to spend it!!
