If you're thinking you recognise this villa but you've never stayed there, you're probably thinking "WTF? How do it know this place?".

Well, don't worry, you're not having de ja vu, you might recognise the mansion from Black Mirror as the MailOnline are reporting that the villa is the SAME villa used in the Netflix show, which featured American singer Miley Cyrus.

If you watched Miley's episode of the hit show last year, you'll be aware that her character Ashley O was imprisoned in the villa by her aunt and manager Catherine, in the episode titled 'Rachel, Jack & Ashley Too'.

The reveal of the villa comes after Love Island bosses reportedly hired armed guards to protect the Islanders while in South Africa, over worries potential kidnap threats could be made.

It's said the guards will act as extra security and will patrol the villa to ensure all Islanders feel, and are, kept safe.

A source told the Daily Star{ =nofollow}, "Producers aren’t taking any chances. It’s been arranged for armed guards to patrol the compound throughout the series.

"If it's known to everyone in the area that a big TV show is in town, then it will become a target."

A Love Island spokesperson said, "The safety and security of our Islanders and crew are of the utmost importance."
