Grab your water bottles and prep your grafting game – Love Island is nearly back, and we are buzzing. While the iconic villa is normally set in the sizzling sun of Mallorca, we’ve had a cheeky little thought… what if the villa packed its bags and pied the Med off for somewhere a little more home-grown? We’ve scoped out some unreal properties right here in the UK – because why should Spain get all the good chat?
Are any of these your type on paper?
Prestbury, Cheshire
This mega mansion is giving serious “exclusive pre-loved bombshell” energy. With massive bedrooms (perfect for recouplings and awkward eye contact), this place could house a whole season’s worth of Islanders and all their emotional baggage.
The wardrobe space is next level – ideal for outfit changes before firepit debriefs and dressing room gossip. And while the outdoor seating is lush, the north of England isn’t exactly Casa Amor, so those indoor chill zones will be working overtime. Winter Love Island? Sorted.
Mobberley, Cheshire
This one’s a total worldie – it’s giving old-money villa with a posh accent. The manicured lawns? On point. The tennis court? Ready for doubles (or a little cheeky one-on-one action). And that pool house? We can already picture it as the ultimate Hideaway – candles lit, neon lights glowing, and things getting a little… muggy.
Over Alderley, Cheshire
Now this is a villa that’s ready to couple up. A bit of English countryside charm mixed with slick, modern vibes – it’s basically the Davide and Ekin-Su of properties. The indoor pool is loyal, keeping things hot when the British weather gets a bit… well, loyal to the rain.
But the outdoor kitchen and sprawling grounds give serious main villa energy. Horse riding? Tennis dates? A sunset lake paddle with your type on paper? Stop it. We’re obsessed. This place is fit, and we’re not even pulling you for a chat.
Petersfield, Hampshire
This contemporary barn conversion is basically the villa equivalent of a bombshell walking in late and turning heads. Set next to a National Nature Reserve, it’s got views that are 100% your type on paper. Perfect for cracking on while catching rays or whispering sweet nothings on the decking – which, by the way, is screaming out for sunbeds and a firepit.
The annexe? Oh behave – it’s basically begging to become a Hideaway. Light the candles and cue the slow-mo walk-in.
So, what do you think? Are any of these UK villas your vibe, or would you be packing your suitcase and heading straight to Mallorca? Whether you’re looking for your casa amor, or just a place to call home, visit OnTheMarket.com.
