Standing prominently on a leafy lane in one of Greater Manchester's most desirable neighbourhoods is Halliwell House. The grand Victorian mansion house in Hale will be familiar to many thanks to its starring role in one of Channel 4's Four in a Bed's most memorable ever episodes.
In the show, where B&B owners take in turns to rate each other's properties in a bid to be crowned best host, owner Martin Hulme caused a stir with his £500-a-night rates - which probably seemed quite hefty back in 2016. Nowadays, he charges £1,250-a-night for the full mansion, which can be hired on Airbnb.
The episode was screened all across the world, and is regularly repeated by the channel, which inevitably piques viewers' interest in whatever happened to the sprawling mansion house. Although anyone out there who IS keen to hire it out for a stay will need to be quick - as Martin has big plans for the future of the property, which was originally built back in 1899.
