Single Beds

A kids single bed is one of the most versatile choices in our children's beds collection. A children's single bed can suit your child for years, from their first full-size bed through primary school and beyond, with prices starting from £109. Our range includes designs from leading UK and European manufacturers, including Julian Bowen, Trasman, Stompa and Thuka.

Our single beds range from 200cm to 210cm in length, with exact dimensions listed on every product page. There is no fixed age for moving into a single bed; the right time depends on your child's size, confidence and the bed design. For younger children who need a lower frame or added reassurance, our low sleeper beds and toddler beds can be a better first step.

If the bedroom is short on length, a shorty single bed is worth considering. These take a shorter 175cm mattress rather than the usual 190cm, which frees up around 15cm of floor space without changing the width. You will find the full selection in our shorty beds.

Beyond classic styles, our children's single beds include playful race car frames and house-style designs. Browse our kids themed beds if your child would like a more adventurous bedroom centrepiece. If keeping the room organised is a priority, explore our beds with storage range for designs with drawers, cupboards or bookcases built into the frame.

Every single bed comes with free delivery to UK mainland addresses and our price match guarantee. Check each product page for exact dimensions, mattress requirements and the recommended age for your chosen bed.

Kids' Single Beds FAQs

What Size Is a UK Single Bed?

A standard UK single mattress is 90cm wide and 190cm long, and most single bed frames are 200cm to 210cm in total length once the frame is included. Measure the room against the frame dimensions rather than the mattress size, and check the individual product page for the exact figures.

What Age Is a Single Bed Suitable For?

There is no fixed age for moving into a single bed. Most children make the move between four and six, once they have outgrown a toddler bed, though it depends more on their size and confidence than their age. A low sleeper is a good middle step if a full-height frame feels too soon.

What Is a Shorty Single Bed?

A shorty single bed takes a 175cm mattress instead of the standard 190cm, making it around 15cm shorter overall while keeping the same 90cm width. It suits smaller bedrooms and younger children who do not yet need a full-length bed. See our shorty beds for the full range.

Do Single Beds Come With Storage?

Yes, many single bed frames include drawers, cupboards or a bookcase headboard built in, which is an efficient way to add storage to a smaller bedroom without extra furniture. Browse our kids' beds with storage for every model that includes it.
