Kids Bed Frames

The kids bed frames are built lower to the ground and sized to match, without the bulk of a full adult frame taking over a smaller room. Sturdier than it needs to be, because it's going to take a fair bit of jumping on. Comes in a range of finishes like bubble beds and chesterfield bed frames that don't skew too babyish, so it doesn't need replacing the second they grow out of cartoons.

Upholstered Kids Beds for Growing Bedrooms

Discover upholstered kids beds designed to bring comfort, character and practical features to your child’s bedroom. Our collection includes children’s bed frames with padded headboards, soft fabric finishes and a choice of modern and classic designs.

Available styles include low-profile beds, wingback headboards and playful shaped designs, with selected models offering under-bed storage. Choose from single, small double, double and king-size kids beds, depending on the individual design and the space available.

How Do I Choose the Right Kids Bed?

The right children’s bed should fit the room, suit the child’s current needs and provide enough space for comfortable sleep. Begin by measuring the area where the bed will sit, including the space required around the frame.

Check the complete external dimensions rather than relying only on the mattress size. Upholstered headboards, side rails and footboards can make the overall bed frame wider or longer than the mattress.

You should also consider:

  • The child’s age and sleeping needs

  • The available bedroom space

  • The required mattress size

  • The height and width of the headboard

  • Whether under-bed storage is needed

  • The preferred fabric, colour and design

  • Access through doors, hallways and staircases

  • The mattress and assembly requirements shown on the product page

Why Choose an Upholstered Kids Bed?

An upholstered kids bed has a padded headboard covered in fabric, often with matching upholstery along the frame. This creates a softer, warmer appearance than an exposed wooden or metal bed frame.

The padded headboard also provides a comfortable surface for sitting upright while reading or relaxing. Depending on the model, the upholstery may feature vertical panels, button tufting, winged sides or a shaped headboard.

Fabric and colour options vary between products, so check the choices available for your preferred design.

Kids Bed Styles Available

Low-Profile Kids Beds

A lower bed frame can make it easier for younger children to get in and out of bed. Low-profile designs also suit rooms with lower windows or limited wall space.

The overall height differs between models, so review the product dimensions before ordering.

Wingback Kids Beds

Wingback beds feature a tall upholstered headboard with padded wings extending from each side. This structured design frames the sleeping area and creates a strong focal point in the room.

Shaped and Character Headboards

Shaped headboards can bring a more playful look to a child’s bedroom without requiring themed furniture throughout the room. These designs can be paired with simple bedding and accessories as the child’s preferences change.

Kids Storage Beds

Selected children’s beds include storage beneath the mattress platform. A lift-up ottoman base provides a concealed compartment that can be used for spare bedding, toys, clothing and other bedroom essentials.

A kids bed with storage can be particularly useful in a compact room where there is limited space for additional cupboards or drawers. Storage availability and the lifting mechanism vary between products.

What Kids Bed Sizes Are Available?

3ft Single Kids Beds

A 3ft single bed is a practical choice for one child and works well in compact bedrooms. It uses a standard UK single mattress measuring approximately 90 × 190 cm.

4ft Small Double Kids Beds

A 4ft small double bed provides additional sleeping width while taking up less floor space than a standard double. It can suit older children, teenagers and bedrooms where a larger bed is wanted without using too much space.

4ft6 Double Kids Beds

A 4ft6 double bed offers more room to stretch out and can be a longer-term option for older children or teenagers. Make sure there is sufficient clearance around the complete upholstered frame.

5ft King-Size Kids Beds

A 5ft king-size bed provides the most sleeping width listed within this collection. It is best suited to larger bedrooms where the frame, headboard and surrounding furniture can fit comfortably.

Not every design is available in every size. Check the options and dimensions on the individual product page before ordering.

Do Kids Beds Include a Mattress?

Mattress inclusion can vary between products. Do not assume that a mattress is supplied unless it is clearly stated on the product page.

Choose a mattress that matches the stated UK bed size and is suitable for the child’s age and sleeping requirements. Always confirm the required mattress dimensions before purchasing it separately.

Are Kids Beds Available with Storage?

Yes, selected kids bed frames are available with ottoman storage. The mattress platform lifts to reveal a compartment beneath the bed, helping keep belongings organised and out of sight.

Under-bed storage can be used for:

  • Spare bedding and pillows

  • Seasonal clothing

  • Toys and games

  • Shoes and bags

  • Towels and bedroom linen

Avoid overfilling the compartment or placing belongings where they could interfere with the lifting mechanism. All items should sit below the closing line of the bed base.

Caring for an Upholstered Kids Bed

Follow the care instructions provided for the selected fabric. General maintenance may include:

  • Vacuuming gently with a soft upholstery attachment

  • Blotting spills promptly without rubbing

  • Using only a cleaner suitable for the specific fabric

  • Keeping the upholstery away from prolonged direct sunlight

  • Checking accessible frame fixings periodically

  • Avoiding sharp objects that could catch the fabric
