The Ultimate Guide to Single Beds: Space-Saving Comfort for Every Home

A single bed is a timeless and practical furniture choice, offering the perfect blend of comfort and space-saving efficiency. Whether you’re furnishing a child’s room, creating a cosy guest bedroom, or maximising space in a compact home, single beds are a smart and stylish solution.

At Honeypot Furniture, we offer a wide selection of single beds designed to suit various interiors and lifestyles — from simple wooden frames to upholstered single beds with storage.

Why Choose a Single Bed?

Single beds (3ft wide) are the perfect size for:

  • Children's bedrooms
  • Teenagers transitioning from bunk beds
  • Spare rooms for guests
  • Compact flats and studio apartments

A single bed offers a comfortable sleep space without taking up too much room, making it ideal for both growing families and small-space dwellers.

Types of Single Beds Available

Standard Single Beds

Ideal for minimal setups, these beds are straightforward and budget-friendly — perfect for kids’ rooms or guest spaces.

Single Beds with Storage

Need more space? A single bed with drawers or an ottoman single bed provides discreet under-bed storage — great for stashing bedding, toys, or seasonal clothes. Explore our range of single beds with storage to keep your space tidy and stylish.

Upholstered Single Beds

For a more luxurious feel, consider an upholstered single bed with a padded headboard. These are perfect for reading in bed or adding a touch of elegance to a small bedroom.

What to Consider Before Buying a Single Bed

When shopping for a single bed, here are some key things to keep in mind:

  • Room Size: Measure carefully to ensure the bed fits without crowding your space.
  • Storage Needs: Look for beds with built-in drawers or lift-up bases for extra functionality.
  • Bed Frame Material: Choose from metal, wood, or upholstered finishes based on your room style.
  • User Age: Whether you're buying for a child, teen, or adult, make sure the design and height are age-appropriate.
