The National Bed Federation Awards 2026
In September 2025, we celebrated a double dose of success – not only were we shortlisted for the National Bed Federation’s (NBF) Small Retailer of the Year award, but we were also proudly celebrating our 10th year in business.
This incredible milestone, makes the national recognition even more special, highlighting a decade of dedication to quality products and outstanding customer service.
The NBF Awards are considered the most prestigious accolades in the UK bed industry, and being shortlisted is a testament to our hard work, passion, and unwavering customer focus.
Since opening our doors ten years ago, we have grown into being the destination for beautifully crafted beds, mattresses, including premium UK manufacturers, Harrison Spinks/Somnus, Vispring and luxury bed maker Enchanted House. Over the years, we have built a loyal customer base, not just in the Wharfe Valley, but across the Yorkshire region and beyond. Adding a second shop in Guiseley in 2022, offering our trusted Carriage brand, but with a wider range of affordable premium brands including Harrison Spinks and Highgrove, both of our shops are known for their warm welcome, expert advice, and commitment to quality.
To be recognised by the National Bed Federation as one of the UK’s leading small retailers is no small achievement. The awards celebrate innovation, service excellence, product knowledge, and business success – all of which have been our focus over the past decade.
We’re absolutely thrilled to be shortlisted,” said Managing Director Vicky Golding. “Reaching our 10th anniversary is such a proud moment, and this recognition feels like the perfect way to celebrate everything we’ve worked so hard to build. We’re so grateful to our customers, who’ve supported us over the years”
The NBF Awards will take place later this month at the prestigious Bed Show in Telford, where the winners will be announced. Whether we win or not the team has every reason to be proud. A decade of success in independent retail is a major accomplishment — and being recognised as one of the country’s best small bed retailers is the icing on the cake.
Update: Although we did not win the category, to be shortlisted as a ‘Finalist’ was amazing and something we are extremely proud off – ten years after receiving the same accolade in 2017.
