Single Beds

We offer a fantastic selection of single bed frame designs, materials, and colours, from neutral whites in wood and metal to charming pastel shades in luxurious upholstered fabrics. Here, you can explore practical storage solutions, guest beds, and even innovative tech to suit your space and needs.

What different types of single beds are available?

Our single bed range is the ideal compact sleeping solution balancing comfort and practicality; it includes:

• Single beds with storage - Say goodbye to cluttered bedrooms! An ottoman or divan bed base is perfect for storing clothes, bedding, and more in the often-overlooked space under your bed.
• Children's single beds - As a kid's single bed is often the final step to their 'big bed,' we have styles that will grow with them into their teenage years. Our modern designs come with built-in features such as desks for studying and futons for relaxing. You can find more tailored advice in our guide to when to transition your child into a big bed.
• Single guest beds - Many of our day bed designs offer extra sleeping space if you love hosting sleepovers. They are great for multi-functional spaces as you can also use them as sofas.
• Adjustable single beds - Perfect for those who need a little extra support, adjustable beds allow you to customise your sleeping position for maximum comfort, whether you're reading or relaxing.
• Foldable single beds - Great for occasional use, these are easy to store and set up for unexpected guests or when you need extra sleeping arrangements without permanent fixtures.

What size is a single bed?

A standard single bed measures 6 feet 3 inches (190 cm) in length and 3 feet (91 cm) in width. Being space-savvy, it’s a popular bed for children's rooms and guest bedrooms, which tend to be the box room of the house. To help you plan, read our home measuring guide to check if your new bed will fit in your space.

If you need advice with bed sizes, check out our bed and mattress size guide. If you’re tall or broad, a single might be a bit too cramped for you, so it would be worth considering a small double bed if you still need to save on space. Couples will also want to look at larger bed sizes, such as a double bed, as a single bed can only comfortably fit one adult.

What materials are single beds available in?

If you prefer a classic look, our wooden beds, made from solid oak or pine, offer durability with a timeless aesthetic. For a modern feel, our metal bed frames provide sleek lines and are incredibly sturdy.

For those seeking added comfort and luxury, our upholstered beds come in a range of fabrics, including soft velvet and woven textures. These fabrics offer a plush finish. Each material is chosen for its appearance and practicality, so whether you're after easy-to-clean surfaces or a sophisticated touch, we have something for everyone.

If you’re still unsure what’s best for you, consider booking an appointment at your local Dreams store.
