Need a bespoke bed for an awkward space? Well, look no further!

If you have an unusual or awkward space, buying a new bed or mattress is easier said than done. It may be that you need a bespoke mattress for an antique bed frame, or your attic is a little too low for a standard divan base. Whatever your challenge, look no further. We’ve got you covered.

Any size, any space

We already offer a whopping 25 sizes on top of the standard sizes you’re used to. From wide singles to short super kings and everything in-between. You’ll even find standard EU sizes for bed frames bought from the continent.

Take a look at our size guide for a full list of mattress dimensions. If you can’t find what you’re looking for, get in touch!

No strangers to a challenge

From narrow stairways to awkwardly placed window frames and radiators, you'd be surprised to learn just how many extensions and renovations are finished without a thought for getting a bed into the room.

One surprisingly common problem for people is antique bed frames. Many of the most desirable styles are from countries and eras long before the introduction of standardised mattress sizes. So you're left with a beautiful bed but no mattress to fill it.

All our mattresses are adjusted by hand, so we can help you choose the perfect custom-sized mattress to match.

Bitesize beds for boats and barges

Over the years we've received all kinds of weird and wonderful requests for bespoke beds and mattresses. We’ve navigated our bespoke beds and mattresses up spiral staircases, through attics, lofts, cellars, and cottage doors.

We’ve delivered beds to boats, barges, and bungalows, pioneering our own bed designs to tackle the more unique and remarkable spaces. We’ve made single beds in two pieces and double beds in three.

Our favorite is the one we coined ‘the KitKat’. A divan base made from four individual pieces, for a particularly narrow castle turret no less.

There really is no staircase too tight or space too awkward.

How it works

Tell us about your space

Introduce your problem to one of our friendly advisers. Depending on the uniqueness of your challenge, we might ask you to send a picture or short video along with the measurements of your space.

We get to work

We’ll come up with a solution and get back to you within 7 days, armed with a plan of action and a quote for getting your new bespoke bed in and your old bed out.

You sit back and relax

It’s that simple. If you’re happy with the proposed plans, the build will begin, and we’ll organise a date to deliver your bespoke bed and/or mattress.

Bespoke beds for awkward couples

Sometimes it’s not the space that’s the problem but the person you’re sharing it with. But before you go ahead and reconsider your relationships, we advise you to reconsider your mattress instead.

What many people don’t realise is a bespoke mattress can be made of two halves. Meaning both sides work independently of each other to support each person during the night.

If you and your partner spend countless nights rolling into each other, take our questionnaire and we’ll pair you up with the perfect bespoke mattress.

Alternatively, you can build your own bespoke couples mattress. Simply select a mattress, choose your size, and pick a firmness rating for each side.

We challenge you

Think you’ve got an impossible task buying the right bed or mattress for your unique space? We’re waiting for your challenge. Get in touch and we’ll take it from there.
