Cabin Beds

In short: our kids cabin beds are single 3ft frames (they take a standard UK single mattress, 90 x 190 cm) raised a little off the floor so the space underneath becomes drawers, cupboards, shelves or a pull-out desk. Low cabins suit children from around four who are moving into their first big bed; pilot cabins with a desk suit school-age children who need a homework spot.

Kids cabin beds solve the two biggest problems in a child’s bedroom: not enough floor and not enough storage. Each frame in this range is a single 3ft bed with built-in storage, so toys, books and spare bedding live under the mattress instead of across the floor.

Which kids cabin bed is right for your child?

• Low cabin beds with storage: a low, easy-to-climb frame with open niches and a cupboard underneath. See the Kudl Low Cabin Bed with Storage.

• Multi drawer cabin beds: a row of deep drawers for clothes and toys, with an optional bookcase headboard, as on the Kudl Multi Drawer Cabin Bed with Bookcase Headboard.

• Pilot cabin beds with a desk: a pull-out desk and bookcase for homework and drawing, as on the Kudl Pilot Cabin Bed with Desk and Bookcase.

Colours include white, grey, black, oak and pink, so you can match the bed to the rest of the room. If you need more height for a desk or den underneath, look at our mid sleeper beds; if two children share a room, see bunk beds and trundle beds.

Sizes and what to measure

Every cabin bed here takes a UK single mattress, 90 x 190 cm, sold separately. Measure the length and width of the wall the bed will sit against, allow room for drawers to open fully (usually 40 to 50 cm in front of the bed), and check the height of any window sill. Exact dimensions and the recommended mattress depth are listed on each product page. A medium-depth children’s mattress keeps the side rails effective; browse kids mattresses for a matching size.

Frequently asked questions

What age is a cabin bed suitable for?

Low cabin beds suit most children from around four years old, once they have moved out of a toddler bed. Pilot and higher cabin beds with desks suit school-age children. Always follow the minimum age given on the product page.

What size mattress does a kids cabin bed take?

All the cabin beds in this range take a standard UK single mattress, 90 x 190 cm. Mattresses are sold separately; choose the depth recommended on the product page so the guard rail stays effective.

What is the difference between a cabin bed and a mid sleeper?

A cabin bed sits lower and uses the space underneath for drawers or cupboards. A mid sleeper is taller, usually with a ladder, which leaves room for a desk, wardrobe or play den underneath.

Do cabin beds need assembling?

Yes. Cabin beds are delivered flat-packed with instructions. Allow one to two hours with two people, depending on the model.

Can I pay for a cabin bed in instalments?

Yes. You can spread the cost with Clearpay or PayPal Pay in 3 at checkout, so you can spread the cost. Delivery is free to mainland England and Wales.
