Extra Long Single Beds

The Benefits of Extra Long Single Beds

For taller individuals or those simply looking for a little extra legroom, extra long single beds are a fantastic option. While the standard UK single bed (3ft x 6ft3) is suitable for most people, taller sleepers often find it uncomfortable due to the limited length.

Extra long single beds, available in 3ft x 6ft6 and 3ft x 6ft9 sizes, provide that much-needed space to stretch out fully, ensuring a more restful and comfortable sleep. Whether for a guest room, children's room, or personal use, these beds are an ideal solution.

Standard Single Beds vs Extra Long Single Beds

The standard UK single bed measures 3ft x 6ft3 (90cm x 190cm), making it suitable for most adults, teenagers, and children. However, taller individuals often find their feet hanging off the edge of the bed, leading to disrupted sleep. This is where extra long single beds shine, with two extended options available: 3ft x 6ft6 (90cm x 200cm) and 3ft x 6ft9 (90cm x 206cm).

These extra long single beds not only provide more space for taller sleepers, but they also offer more comfort for those who prefer additional legroom, making them perfect for both everyday use and guest rooms. With these extended bed sizes, you can enjoy a restful night’s sleep without feeling restricted by the bed’s dimensions.

Benefits of Extra Long Divan Bases

An extra long divan base offers even more benefits when paired with an extra long single bed. Not only does it provide robust support for your mattress, but it also comes with several customisation options that make it both practical and stylish.

• Choice of colours: Extra long divan bases come in a variety of colours, allowing you to match your bed to your bedroom’s décor. Whether you prefer a neutral tone or a bold statement colour, there’s something to suit every style.
• Base types: Extra long divan bases are available in different types, such as platform top, which provides firm support, or sprung bases, which offer a softer feel by adding a layer of springs between the base and the mattress. This customisation allows you to tailor the level of support to your personal preference.
• Storage options: One of the standout features of a divan base is the storage options. Extra long divan bases can be equipped with storage drawers. These built-in storage solutions provide valuable space for bedding, clothes, or other items, helping to keep your room clutter-free without the need for additional furniture.
• Add a matching headboard: For a cohesive look, you can add a matching headboard to your extra long divan base. Headboards not only enhance the style of the bed but also provide comfort for reading or watching television in bed. With a wide range of designs available, it’s easy to create a stylish and functional centrepiece for your bedroom.

In summary, extra long single mattresses offer a perfect solution for taller individuals or those looking for more space to sleep comfortably. When paired with an extra long divan base, you get a bed that’s both practical and customisable, with storage solutions, various base types, and a range of colours to choose from. Whether you're furnishing a guest room or upgrading your own bed, an extra long single bed ensures you can sleep comfortably without compromise.
