Where is the new Winter Love Island villa?
Once again, the Winter Love Island villa is located in South Africa.
Although the first winter series in 2020 was filmed at a luxury spot in Cape Town, filming has moved for 2023.
This year, the winter spin-off is being shot at a stunning property in Franschhoek in the Cape Winelands, the Ludus Magnus estate, according to The Times.
