Kid's Cabin beds are one of the most popular sleeping options for children's bedrooms. Comfy and cosy, they're suitable for children aged 6 and over and can be an excellent sleeping space throughout your little one's entire childhood, from starting school to adolescence.

What is a Kid’s Cabin Bed?

A kid’s cabin bed is a single bed that's slightly raised above the floor. It's not as high as a mid sleeper but offers space underneath the bed platform. This space can be utilised for storage or can come with additional features, such as a desk or other pieces of furniture underneath. This means that you can save space in the rest of the room.

A kid's cabin bed also has a whole host of other benefits; continue reading to find out how they can deliver not only a great night's sleep every night, but why they're a super adaptable and practical piece to add to any bedroom.

1. Maximising Space.

As we've mentioned, the first and foremost reason cabin beds are such a popular choice is because of their ability to maximise space in a bedroom, especially rooms with a limited floor square footage. They feature a raised bed with lots of storage options underneath, including drawers, desks, shelves, and cupboards. This means that you can store clothes, toys, books, and games tidily but with instant access when needed.

2. Versatile.

Another benefit of cabin beds is their versatility. Some, such as the Parisot Kurt Acacia come with pull-out desks to allow kids to study or draw , while others come with space underneath for play. There are hundreds of configurations to suit any age and need. By removing the need for extra pieces of furniture, cabin beds also allow you to save money

3. Perfect to Suit Any Bedroom.

All of the kid's cabin beds on our site come from the very best designers, including Julian Bowen, Kidsaw, Vipack, and Parisot. There is a huge assortment of colours, designs, and styles available, so you'll be able to find exactly the right one to suit your child's personality and space.

4. Long lasting.

As children grow, the way in which they use their bedroom also changes. From being a place of play, bedrooms become an area where older children can focus on studying and indulging their hobbies. Cabin beds are great at supporting this as they can be easily adapted to suit every stage of development. The space underneath a cabin bed can transition from being a play area for younger kids to a cool chill out zone for older children and teenagers, or desks and chairs can be added to make a homework workstation.

5. Promoting Independence:

Cabin beds are a fantastic next step when your child is ready to move on from their toddler bed. Higher cabin beds, such as the Birlea Leyton, come with steps and hand holds, which will allow your little one to independently get in and out of bed by themselves, making the bedtime routine a piece of cake.

6. Fun and Functional.

A child's bedroom should be a safe space that provides a haven for developing minds and bodies and gives kids everything they need to grow. A cabin bed is a brilliantly fun space that children will absolutely love. The raised height makes it a great play space with endless hours of imaginative play possible. Some cabin beds also come with a space underneath, which can be transformed into your child's own private play area.
