When your bedroom feels short on space, your bed can do more than give you somewhere to sleep. A storage bed combines your sleeping space with useful built-in storage, helping you keep bedding, clothes and other items neatly tucked away. Our collection includes practical designs with Ottoman lift-up storage, gas-lift mechanisms, drawers and upholstered frames, so you can choose the setup that fits your bedroom.
Explore Our Storage Bed Collection
Whether you need extra space in a small bedroom or want a cleaner look without adding more furniture, you can find a storage bed to suit your space and style.
Each design comes in its own size, finish, and storage setup, so check the individual product details before ordering.
Which Storage Option Suits Your Bedroom?
The right storage type depends on what you keep away and how often you need it. Choose the mechanism around your routine, not just the look.
Ottoman Storage Uses Full Underbed Space
Lift the base to access a larger compartment, useful for duvets, bedding and seasonal clothing.
Gas Lift Storage Opens Easily
Gas struts support the hinged base, providing easier access to stored items when the bed is raised.
Storage Drawers Keep Items Accessible
Drawers suit items you use often, but you'll need enough clearance on the sides for them to open fully.
Find a Storage Bed Style That Fits Your Room
Once storage is sorted, think about the bedroom feel you want. Our range includes styles that work with both modern and classic interiors.
-
Modern: Clean shapes for a fresh bedroom.
-
Contemporary: Simple details with a current feel.
-
Luxury: Rich finishes for a more refined room.
-
Hotel Style: A polished look inspired by hotel bedrooms.
-
Chesterfield: Deep button detailing for a classic finish.
-
Wingback: A taller, more defined headboard silhouette.

Minimalist: Simple lines that keep the room uncluttered.
Choose a style that works with your existing furniture, then check each product's materials, dimensions, and available finishes before ordering.
Choose the Material and Finish You Prefer
Material changes how your storage bed looks and feels. I’d also check the product details, as upholstery and finishes can vary between designs.
Fabric Storage Beds
Upholstered fabric gives the frame a soft finish that complements cozy bedroom schemes.
Velvet Storage Beds
Velvet adds a richer texture and suits bedrooms where you want a more luxurious finish.
Bouclé Storage Beds
Bouclé brings a textured, modern look. Choose it only where the specific product is available.
Wooden or Metal Frames
Wood or metal can create a cleaner frame style, but availability depends on the current collection.
Which Storage Bed Color Matches Your Bedroom?
Once you know the style and material, color helps complete the look. Choose a shade that works with your existing furniture and décor.
-
Grey: Easy to pair with modern interiors.
-
Beige: Creates a warm, neutral look.
-
Cream: Keeps the bedroom light and soft.
-
Black: Adds stronger contrast and definition.
-
White: Gives the room a clean, bright feel.
-
Blue: Adds color without feeling too bold.
-
Green: Works well when you want a deeper, natural tone.
Check each product listing for its actual color, fabric, and finish, as shades can vary between materials and screen displays.
Shop Storage Beds in the Right UK Size
The right size gives you enough sleeping space without overwhelming your bedroom. Check the mattress dimensions and the product's external measurements before ordering.
90 × 190cm — A practical choice for one sleeper, especially in smaller bedrooms.
Small Double Storage Beds
120 × 190cm — Gives one sleeper extra room without taking up as much space as a double.
Double Storage Beds
135 × 190cm — A common choice for couples or anyone wanting more sleeping space.
King Size Storage Beds
150 × 200cm — Gives couples more width and length for a comfortable main bedroom setup.
Super King Storage Beds
180 × 200cm — Offers generous sleeping space, but needs a larger bedroom footprint.
Always check the individual product specification, as frame dimensions will be larger than the mattress size.
Check Mattress Compatibility Before Ordering
A mattress should match the bed's required size, weight, and construction specifications. Don't rely on the label alone.
-
Mattress size: Match the required length and width.
-
Mattress thickness: Check any stated thickness limits.
-
Weight: Confirm the mattress suits the storage mechanism.
-
Base or slats: Follow the specified support requirements.
-
Product specifications: Check the individual listing before ordering.
This matters most with lift-up storage beds, where mattress weight can affect the lifting mechanism.
What Features Make These Storage Beds Practical?
A useful storage bed should solve a real bedroom problem. Look for features that make storage easier to access while keeping the bed practical for everyday use.
Built-In Storage
Uses the space beneath your mattress for bedding, clothing, and other suitable items.
Gas Lift Mechanisms
Gas struts assist the lifting base, making the storage compartment easier to access.
Strong Bed Frames
A well-built frame provides the structure needed to support the mattress and sleepers.
Upholstered Headboards
A padded headboard adds a softer finish while giving the bed a more finished bedroom look.
Easy Access Storage
Thoughtful opening designs let you access stored items without moving the entire bed.
Handmade Construction
Where specified, handmade construction reflects the care involved in producing individual bed components.
Why Add Storage to Your Bed?
You don't always need another wardrobe or chest of drawers. Your bed already occupies valuable floor space, so adding storage can make that footprint work harder.
-
Use unused space: Store items beneath the sleeping area.
-
Reduce clutter: Keep spare bedding and seasonal items out of sight.
-
Free up furniture space: You may need fewer separate storage units.
-
Keep essentials nearby: Store bedding and bedroom items where you need them.
-
Make small rooms work better: Useful when floor space is limited.
The important part is choosing storage that matches how you actually use your bedroom. That brings us to the retailer behind the collection.
Why Choose Our Storage Beds?
When you buy a storage bed, you’re also buying the frame, mechanism and storage system behind it. So I’d look beyond photos and check the details that affect your purchase.
Quality Materials and Construction
Check each product listing for its frame materials, upholstery, base design and other construction details before ordering.
UK Craftsmanship Where Applicable
Where a product is made in the UK, its listing should clearly state this. We won't apply a UK-made claim to every design.
Delivery Across the UK
Check the individual delivery information for your location, including available delivery options and any room-of-choice service offered.
Warranty and After-Sales Support
Review the product warranty and after-sales terms before buying. Clear terms give you a better idea of the support available after delivery.
Customer Reviews and Feedback
Real customer feedback can help you judge the buying and product experience. Look at reviews alongside the actual product specifications.
Storage Beds for Different Bedroom Types
A storage bed can work in many rooms, but the reason for choosing one changes. I’d match the storage design to the space you have.
-
Small bedrooms: Add storage without another floor-standing unit.
-
Master bedrooms: Combine generous sleeping space with hidden storage.
-
Guest bedrooms: Keep spare bedding close without filling the room with furniture.
-
Studio flats: Make one piece of furniture serve two purposes.
-
Apartments: Use existing floor space more efficiently.
-
Family homes: Keep bedding, clothing and bedroom items organised.
Once you know your room and storage needs, choosing the right bed becomes much simpler.
How to Choose Your Storage Bed
You don't need to overthink it. I’d narrow your choice down in this order:
-
Choose your UK bed size — Single, Small Double, Double, King or Super King.
-
Choose your storage type — Ottoman, gas lift, or drawers — based on how you use the space.
-
Choose your material and color — match the frame to your bedroom style.
-
Check mattress compatibility — Confirm the required size, weight and support specifications.
-
Check the details — Review dimensions, delivery options and warranty terms before ordering.
This gives you a bed that fits your room, storage needs and mattress requirements, rather than choosing on appearance alone.
