Small Double Beds

A small double, also known as a queen-size bed, is 4ft wide and 6ft 3 inches long (120cm wide and 190cm long), making them 6 inches narrower than a double bed. Despite the smaller size, these 4-foot bed frames make sure you will have space for everything you need in your bedroom and still have plenty of room for a restful night's sleep. Ideal for teens, guest rooms, solo sleepers and even couples (if you don't mind being cosy), our affordable ¾ beds have plenty of colours, materials and designs to choose from.

Is a small double right for me?

If you are upgrading from a single to a small double bed, you have 12 inches of extra space to stretch out. A small double is the exact same length as both a single and a double, so if none of these beds are long enough for you, a king-sized bed may be your preferred option.

Can a small double bed frame fit two adults?

Yes, there's definitely enough room for two people but this size is more suited to cuddlers rather than starfishers. With the smaller sleeping surface available, these beds are better suited for couples who are less fidgety whilst sleeping and don't overheat during the night. If you and your partner don't need lots of room to sleep, the extra floor space will be a welcomed addition for storage, furniture or even a mat for morning yoga.

Is a queen bed a good choice for children?

It can be difficult to predict how tall your child will grow, especially during their teenage years. So, getting them a bigger bed sooner is a good penny-saving option. A small double is a perfect size, providing more space than a single, but not too much that it takes away space in their room, so you can be sure your child will have a comfortable night's sleep.

The small doubles in our range come in various designs and finishes, catering to your kids' preferences as they grow and mature. We even have small double TV beds, ideal for gamers and binge-watchers.

Why a queen bed makes sense in a guest bedroom

If you are a household that often has friends and family over, then a guest bedroom is vital. But having a bed take up all the room can seem like a waste of space. A small double can be the ideal solution, not taking up too much floorspace but giving your guests, even if they are a couple, enough room for a comfortable night's sleep. And if you want to make the most of your spare room, a small double divan or ottoman bed allows extra storage space to keep your home clutter-free.
