GMB gives tour of stunning new Love Island villa that is 'twice the size' of the old one

Good Morning Britain treated viewers with a tour of the brand new Love Island villa on Thursday's episode — and it didn't disappoint.

Richard Arnold showed off the garden, which had stunning views of the nearby mountains, an envy-inducing pool area and plenty of room for sunbathing.

The TV presenter revealed that the new Cape Town pad is "twice the size" of the Majorcan villa that was used in the summer series and has new features.

He said: "Isn't it spectacular? I have to say this an extraordinary property that these 12 new melts will be ensconced in over the next six weeks."

"It's got to be at least twice the size of the villa we're used to seeing, of course during those sun-drenched days in July and August."

The villa has 80 cameras to capture the Islanders' every move when the show begins on Sunday.

This year there are two dressing rooms, meaning the boys have their own space to get ready for the first time.

There is also an area called 'The Dog House', where the Islanders can go to sleep if they've had a falling out and don't want to share a bed.

Today it was revealed that bosses fear a troop of aggressive baboons could try to invade the cast’s villa after several were spotted near the perimeter.

ITV2 bosses are particularly concerned after learning that the 5ft primates are attracted to shiny objects – with the Islanders’ sunglasses and blingy jewellery sure to lure them.

It's also claimed that the area is located in the middle of violent gangs.

Shockwaves were sent through Cape Town, South Africa when Extreme Security Measures boss Tim Lotter was shot dead on Sunday.

His murder is believed to be linked to the drugs and prostitution rings plaguing the 11th deadliest city in the world, according to local reports.
