Single Beds

Single beds measure 3ft (90cm) x 6ft3 (190cm) — the most compact standard UK size, and the practical choice for box rooms, children's bedrooms and guest rooms where floor space is tight. Bed frames, divan sets and matching headboards, all handmade in our own UK workshop with free fast delivery and a 5-year guarantee.

Want hidden storage underneath? Our single ottoman beds lift on gas struts to reveal a full-width storage well — the best use of space in a small room. For drawer storage instead, see single divan beds.

Need something wider? Compare small double beds (4ft) and double beds (4ft6).

What are single bed dimensions in the UK?

A UK single mattress is 3ft (90cm) wide by 6ft3 (190cm) long. Allow extra floor space around the frame for access.

What room size do I need for a single bed?

A single fits comfortably in most box rooms. If you're adding an ottoman base, leave clearance at the side for the base to lift fully open.

Is a single bed suitable for an adult?

Yes — single is a standard adult size, widely used in guest rooms, studio flats and any room where floor space matters more than bed width.

Can I get a single bed with a mattress included?

Many divan sets include a choice of mattress. Frames are usually sold separately from mattresses — check each product page.
