A wooden bed brings warmth, solidity, and natural character to a bedroom in a way that upholstered and metal frames cannot. The material itself is part of the appeal - real wood grain, natural variation, and a finish that ages well. Our wooden bed range covers bed frames, ottoman storage beds, guest beds, and bunk beds across pine, oak, white, grey, and dark grey finishes, from single through to super king, with options for every room type and budget. Free delivery on orders over £100 and expert advice seven days a week.

Wood has been the primary material for bed frames throughout history for straightforward reasons: it is strong, durable, workable into a wide range of designs, and it brings a natural warmth to a room that other materials do not replicate. A wooden bed frame tends to feel more permanent and furniture-like than an upholstered or metal frame - it is a piece of furniture as much as it is a bed.
The range of wooden bed styles available is broader than most people realise. Pine gives a lighter, more relaxed look. Oak brings warmth and grain definition. Painted finishes - white, grey, dark grey - let wood structure and form do the work without the visual weight of natural grain. Each finish suits a different interior style, and the same bed frame in different finishes can read very differently in a room.
Wooden beds also cover a wider range of bed types than most material categories - frames, ottoman bases, guest beds, bunk beds, children's beds. Whether you need a straightforward bed frame for a main bedroom, under-bed storage in an ottoman, a guest sleeping solution, or a sturdy children's bunk bed, wooden construction is often the right answer.

| Bed Type | What It Offers | Browse |
|---|---|---|
| Wooden bed frames | The core of the range - standard wooden frames in a choice of finishes and styles for main bedrooms and guest rooms. Available in pine, oak, white, and painted finishes from single to super king. | Wooden Bed Frames |
| Wooden ottoman beds | Wooden frames with gas-lift under-bed storage. The storage lifts with the mattress on a hydraulic mechanism, keeping the natural wooden aesthetic alongside practical storage. | Wooden Ottoman Beds |
| Wooden guest beds | Trundle-style guest beds in wooden frames. A standard single bed with a pull-out second sleeping surface stored beneath, ideal for guest rooms and spare rooms. | Wooden Guest Beds |
| Wooden bunk beds | Children's bunk beds in wooden construction - white, grey oak, and dark grey finishes. Two sleeping surfaces in the footprint of one bed. | Wooden Bunk Beds |
The finish changes how the wood reads in the room as much as the style of the frame does.
| Finish | Character | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Natural pine | Light, warm, and relaxed. Pine has a straight grain and a yellow-warm tone that lightens with age. A casual, unpretentious finish. | Relaxed, casual, or country-style bedrooms. Children's rooms. Budget-conscious buyers who want real wood. |
| Oak / Oak effect | Richer grain definition than pine. Warm brown tones with natural variation. A more premium, substantial appearance. | Traditional, Scandi, and natural interiors. Those wanting wood grain to be the visual interest of the frame. |
| White painted | Wood structure with a clean white finish. Adds brightness without hiding the wooden form. Works in contemporary and country-style rooms alike. | Children's rooms, guest rooms, coastal or fresh interiors. Those who want wood construction without a natural wood colour. |
| Grey / Grey oak | A cooler, more contemporary take on natural wood. Grey-stained or grey-painted finishes bridge the gap between wood and neutral. | Contemporary and minimal bedrooms. Those who want wood construction to work alongside grey or cool-toned interiors. |
| Dark grey / Anthracite | A deeper, more dramatic finish. Gives wooden beds more visual weight and a modern, grounded quality. | Contemporary interiors wanting a statement frame. Rooms where contrast against lighter walls is the intention. |
| Material | Character | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Wood | Natural, warm, solid. Ages well. Wider range of styles and types than any other material. | Those who want a natural material that feels like furniture. Traditional, Scandi, natural, and contemporary interiors. |
| Upholstered fabric | Soft, padded, wide colour choice. A warmer visual feel than hard materials. | Those who lean against the headboard regularly, or who want maximum colour coordination with the room. |
| Metal | Clean lines, lightweight appearance, easy to wipe down. | Contemporary and industrial interiors, allergy sufferers, those wanting a lighter visual presence. |
| Check | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Room dimensions | Measure the room before ordering. The bed footprint plus clearance on all sides determines what size fits comfortably. See our UK Bed Sizes Guide. |
| Door and staircase clearance | Wooden bed frames are flat packed for delivery but individual components can still be large. Check that headboards, side rails, and slat sections can be moved through doorways and up stairs before ordering. |
| Slat type | Wooden beds use either solid slats or sprung slats. Sprung slats flex slightly under weight and work in conjunction with the mattress. Solid slats provide a firmer, more rigid base. Check the individual product specification. |
| Mattress compatibility | Any mattress will work with a wooden slatted base, but check the slat spacing - most manufacturers recommend no more than 7cm between slats. Memory foam mattresses may specify sprung or solid bases. |
| Finish accuracy | Wood finishes vary between screens and real life. If the exact shade of a painted or stained finish matters, check that a swatch or finish sample is available, or read customer reviews with photographs before ordering. |
Wooden beds are available across all standard UK sizes.
| Size | Mattress Dimensions | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Single (3ft) | 90 x 190cm | Solo adults, children, guest rooms |
| Small Double (4ft) | 120 x 190cm | Compact bedrooms, solo sleepers wanting more space |
| Double (4ft 6) | 135 x 190cm | Couples, guest rooms, smaller master bedrooms |
| King Size (5ft) | 150 x 200cm | Couples wanting more width and length |
| Super King (6ft) | 180 x 200cm | Maximum space, larger master bedrooms |

| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What types of wooden bed are available? | The wooden bed range covers standard bed frames, ottoman storage beds with gas-lift under-bed storage, guest beds with a pull-out second sleeping surface, and bunk beds for children. Each type is available in a range of finishes - pine, oak, white, grey, and dark grey. Use the quick links above to browse by type. |
| What is the difference between pine and oak finishes? | Pine tends to be lighter in colour with a more uniform, straight grain - giving a relaxed, casual look. Oak has a richer, more defined grain with warmer brown tones and more natural variation - a more premium and traditional appearance. Both are natural wood finishes that improve with care over time. |
| Do wooden beds include a mattress? | No. Wooden bed frames, ottoman bases, and guest beds are sold without mattresses unless purchased as a bundle. Browse our mattresses or speak to our team for a recommendation. |
| What slat type do wooden beds use? | It varies by model. Some use solid wooden slats which provide a firm base. Others use sprung slats which flex slightly under weight and work with the mattress to provide a more responsive feel. Check the individual product specification before ordering. |
| Can wooden beds be assembled at home? | Yes. All wooden beds arrive flat packed with full assembly instructions and fixings included. Our bed assembly service covers divan beds only - it does not cover wooden bed frames. Assembly service is also not available on children's beds. |
| Are wooden bunk beds safe for children? | Yes, when used correctly. Upper bunks are recommended for children aged 6 and above. Use mattresses no deeper than 15cm to maintain effective guardrail height. Always ensure guardrails are correctly assembled. Teach children to use the ladder facing inward. Check the individual product for specific age and weight recommendations. |
| Do you offer free delivery on wooden beds? | Yes, free UK delivery is included on orders over £100. Lead times vary by product - from next day on some models to around 2 weeks on others. Some remote postcodes may incur an additional charge. See our delivery page for full details. |
| Can I buy a wooden bed on finance? | Yes. Interest-free finance is available on eligible orders. See our finance page for full details on terms, eligibility, and how to apply. |
