Eden

Age: 21

Eden is a professional dancer and teacher from Buckingham, and is hoping to go on the show for a different dating experience that isn't from either dating apps or from people she works with. She said that she'd like an "exciting" date, and what could be more exciting than being on telly?

Speaking about dating on camera, she said: "It will be quite an interesting experience to watch back. It’ll be a real insight into what I’m like to date. What people’s perceptions of me are. But for most of the time I’m going to forget they’re there."

Will Eden find love?

Her biggest turn off is "someone who’s quite shy and nervous". She continued: "Not having a lot of confidence definitely isn’t very appealing to me. Someone who thinks they’re above everyone else. I don’t think anyone’s better than anyone. And bad shoes… bad shoes are a turn off absolutely." 

Jordan 

Age: 21

Jordan, a social media and marketing manager who also works at a music studio, will be getting to know Eve on the show! The Epsom-based contestants has revealed that he's never really dated before - so his first time will be on TV!

He said: "I didn’t really do clubbing. A lot of the people I know from social media are either work-related or friends. So it’s the first opportunity I’ve had to date really. “I’m looking for a laugh, to have fun with someone and be myself around. Just someone I can be me around to be honest. That’s all you can ask for." 

Jordan has never dated before

Speaking about how he'll know if he's found the one, he added: "I will be able to relax. And just know that I can be myself. You’ll walk in and you’ll know straight away whether this is someone you can be yourself around. It’ll be like a weight off the shoulders. Someone you can really be yourself and have some genuine conversations with. Just knowing you can trust each other." 

Ashleigh 

Age: 23 

Ashleigh is a trainee hairdresser from Bristol, and says that The Cabins is her dream date. She said: "I love the wilderness and nature. Staying in a secluded cabin is totally different to the sort of date I’d normally go on. On apps, you do the usual thing - go for a drink, go to a restaurant. This will bring out a side to both of us and really get to know each other properly and not just have a drink and leave. We’ll genuinely know if we’ve got a connection or not."

Chatting about her biggest turn-off, she added: "I like confident, but not cocky. There is a line between them. I hate when you say you’ve been to Tenerife and they’ve been to ‘Elevenerife’ – just chill out. Just a nice, confident, but not cocky, person." 

Stuart 

Age: 24

Land buyer, Devon-based Stuart sounds like he knows how to treat a girl right on a date! Speaking about his best date ever, he said: "I took a girl to a local vineyard in Wales when I was at university in Cardiff. We wandered around the vineyard for a couple of hours, then had a load of wine tasting, cheese tasting, it was just a great date. A really good date." 

Stuart hails from Devon

He also has some tattoos to show off! He said: "Some people are a bit surprised by that. I’ve got Mount Kilimanjaro on my foot, an elephant on the back of my leg and I’ve got a third one which is just a bit fun, which we’ll leave it at that. It’s hidden… maybe a lucky lady might find out where it is."
