House Beds – FAQs
What is a children’s house bed?
Children’s house beds are designed with a playful house-style frame, often featuring a pitched roof and look-out openings.
From cosy low sleepers to house-themed bunk beds, there are styles to suit different ages and room sizes.
With den-like designs, they add a sense of fun to a child’s room, helping them feel excited about bedtime.
What age is a house bed suitable for?
The suitable age for a house bed depends on the bed’s height, access and overall design.
Low-level house beds and bottom bunks are generally suitable for children aged four and over, as they offer easier access.
Taller designs with ladder access are typically suitable for children aged six and above, who can climb confidently.
Are house beds safe?
Yes, house beds are designed with safety as a priority and comply with the latest safety standards for children’s beds.
Higher level house beds have sturdy ladders and raised sides around the sleep area for extra safety.
As with all children’s beds, follow the recommended age guidance and ensure the mattress fits correctly.
What should I consider when choosing a house bed?
Check the room size carefully, paying attention to the ceiling height for beds with pitched roofs.
Decide whether a low bed, mid sleeper or bunk-style house bed suits your space and storage requirements.
Choose a design that your child can access safely, based on their age and confidence level.
