Mid Sleeper & Cabin Beds
Our versatile mid sleepers and cabin beds start at £279 and are the perfect middle ground between standard beds and high sleepers, offering smart storage and extra functionality without taking up too much height. Ideal for younger children or smaller bedrooms, these beds help you make better use of the space you have.
Designed with practicality in mind, many of our mid sleeper beds and cabin beds include built-in drawers, shelves or desks, making it easy to keep toys, clothes and school supplies neatly organised. By combining sleep and storage in one compact design, they free up valuable floor space for play and relaxation.
The two names are often used interchangeably, and the difference is worth knowing before you choose. A mid sleeper is raised high enough to leave the space beneath open, so it can hold a desk, drawers or a play den. A cabin bed sits lower with the storage built into the frame itself. Choose a mid sleeper if you want flexible open space underneath, and a cabin bed if you would rather have fitted drawers at a lower height.
Our mid sleepers and cabin beds are crafted from sturdy, durable materials and built to handle everyday use, ensuring comfort and reliability for years to come. With a variety of modern and classic styles available, it's easy to find a design that suits your child's personality and bedroom décor.
Pair with one of our supportive kids mattresses, or explore other options like bunk beds, high sleeper beds and single beds within our wider kids furniture collection. Add coordinating kids accessories to complete the look. If you are furnishing a small bedroom, our guide to small space furniture ideas is worth reading first.
Mid Sleeper and Cabin Beds Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a mid sleeper and a cabin bed?
A mid sleeper is raised high enough to leave the space underneath open, so it can hold a desk, drawers or a play den. A cabin bed sits lower with storage built into the frame itself. Choose a mid sleeper for flexible open space, and a cabin bed for fitted storage at a lower height.
What age are mid sleeper and cabin beds suitable for?
Raised beds generally suit children aged six and over, once they can use a ladder confidently. Lower cabin bed designs may suit younger children. Always check the manufacturer's recommended age on the individual product page, since frame heights vary considerably across the range.
Are mid sleeper beds good for storage?
Yes, they add storage without taking up extra floor space, which is what makes them so useful in a child's room. Storage comes as built-in drawers, open shelving, or a desk that tucks underneath. See our kids single beds if you need a lower frame with drawers instead.
What mattress size do they take?
Most take a standard UK single mattress, 90cm by 190cm, though the maximum mattress depth is usually limited so the guard rails sit high enough to be effective. Check the depth limit on the product page before ordering, and see our kids mattresses for options that fit.
