Not for the first summer in recent years, Love Island has been one of the most watched and discussed shows on our TV screens in recent weeks but whether you’ve been watching the Virgin Media/ITV show or not, it’s fair to say we could all do with a bit of a villa lifestyle.
While for most it remains aspirational, there are a number of houses in Ireland that wouldn’t look out of place in Mallorca on the show.
With the final of the drama-filled show fast approaching, we decided to take a look at five homes that have a Love Island theme to them.
Check them out below…
Belmont, King’s Channel, Maypark, Waterford City, Co Waterford
- Type: 8 bed detached house
- Agent: Palmer Auctioneers
- Asking price: €995,000
'The Terrace' has become one of the most discussed settings on Love Island down through the years with participants on the show often going there to ‘tash on’. This stunning 8 bed home in Waterford has a terrace of its own overlooking the outdoor pool, the perfect place for a romantic date.
Rose Cottage, Kilmacanogue, Co Wicklow
- Type: 5 bed detached house
- Agent: George & Maguire Properties
- Asking price: €1,695,000
The gardens of Rose Cottage certainly wouldn’t look amiss on Love Island with its wide range of lounge areas and fire pit. There’s even an outdoor hot tub – similar to the one in ‘The Hideaway’ – right beside an area where the group can dine together.
Blackmore, Donard, Co Wicklow
- Type: 4 bed detached house
- Agent: JP&M Doyle
- Asking price: €650,000
Most of the re-coupling and dumping takes place around the fire pit on Love Island and this Co Wicklow home has its own covered fire pit which, while different to that on the show, would a perfect setting to bring the islanders together.
Danesfort, Killiney Hill Road, Killiney, Co Dublin
- Type: 5 bed detached house
- Agent: Sherry FitzGerald Dalkey
- Asking price: €2,525,000
Most of the islanders’ time on Love Island is spent on chilling out in and around the pool. Danesfort in Killiney would fit that criteria with its superb outdoor pool a perfect place to gather around and have a gossip.
Baltrasna House, Ardee, Co Louth
- Type: 6 bed detached house
- Agent: Lisney Sotheby’s International Realty
- Asking price: €1,800,000
The stunning Baltrasna House in Ardee, Co Louth, might be far away from the sunnier climate of Mallorca but with its outdoor fireplace, seating area and spectacular pool, it certainly fits most of the criteria for a Love Island setting.
