A family-run holiday retreat near Harrogate has been named the winner of Channel 4's Four in a Bed.
Haystacks Country Retreats, based in Birstwith, appeared on screens last week as part of the popular TV series.
The show sees bed and breakfast owners visit each other’s venues before leaving a review and revealing how much they would pay for their stay.
Haystacks Country Retreats offers handcrafted shepherd's huts designed for couples, with features including double beds, kitchen areas and en-suite bathrooms.
Located in Nidderdale, the site allows for scenic walks of the surrounding countryside.
Speaking about their win, owners Jonny Brown and Sasha Smith said:
“We are beyond proud, and still in shock even now, to announce that Haystacks Country Retreats has been crowned the winners of this week’s Four in a Bed!
“Opening our doors to the other fantastic hosts was such an unforgettable experience, one we’ll treasure for a long time.
“The week was filled with so many emotions: the excitement of showing off our little retreat, the nerves of being judged by our peers and plenty of laughs along the way.
“It definitely pushed us out of our comfort zone and gave us memories we’ll never forget.”
During the week of filming, Jonny and Sasha hosted the third stay, which included an afternoon of rowing in Knaresborough followed by a drink at The Station Hotel.
On payment day, the retreat received a full payment from their fellow hosts, plus two additional overpayments of £25 and £50.
This resulted in an average final bill of 116 per cent and was enough to seal top spot.
Jonny and Sasha added:
"To come out on top after seeing the absolutely stunning accommodations of our fellow competitors was just icing on the cake - and the cherry on top!
"It’s a huge honour, especially knowing the effort, passion and heart that every single one of the hosts put into their places.
"A massive thank you to our fellow Four in a Bedder’s and the Four in a Bed team for sharing the journey with us and making it such an enjoyable experience.
"And of course to everyone who tuned in and sent us such kind messages of support – it means the world.”
