Brilliant Bunk Beds for Every Budget

Bunk beds are a fantastic, space-saving solution for siblings sharing a room or for sleepovers. When you’re small, they’re also a whole lot of fun – climbing up to the top bunk can feel like climbing Everest!

At Cuckooland, our bunk beds come with a wide range of fun and practical features, including storage shelves, trundle drawers and even treehouse cabins! We have bunk beds to suit all budgets, so you can find the perfect one for your family.

Take a look at our pick of the best bunk beds by budget (in ascending order*) to find the bunk bed of their dreams. All that’s left to decide then is, who gets the top bunk?

Below the bottom bed is a pull-out drawer on castors, ideal for storing spare bedding, clothes or toys. For your convenience, the ladder can be positioned on the left or right, to suit the room.

If you’re looking for an affordable bunk bed with even more storage, check out the Parisot Tam Tam Kids Bunk Bed.

Not only is there a drawer under the bottom bunk, but there’s also shelving running alongside both beds – perfect for storing their favourite toys, books and night lights. By giving each child their own dedicated area, you might even avoid arguments over whose space is whose!

The shelving is reversible so you can change the look of the bed, and the ladder has wide, flat steps, ideal for little feet climbing up to sleep.

Worried you don’t have enough space for a bunk bed? Perhaps the kids are sharing a box room, or your spare room also needs to function as a home office or playroom?

Our Didi Shorty Bunk Bed could be the answer! This space-saving bunk bed is shorter than a regular bed, requiring mattresses of 175cm, rather than the standard 190cm UK singles. This makes it ideal for smaller kids and smaller rooms!

Two storage drawers, built-in hooks and a ladder that can be positioned on the left or right further ensure this bed works for you.

This metal bunk bed is available in black or white and is ideal for creating a cool, Scandi theme in your child’s bedroom – just pair with monochrome bedding and bright accessories.

The rounded corners of the beds make for a stylish and contemporary look that you might not expect to find at this price!

If you want even more ‘bang for your buck’, the Aviary Triple Sleeper is designed with a single bed on top and a small double on the bottom.

This makes it ideal for younger children sharing with an older sibling or families staying over – put the adults on the bottom and little one on top!

The bed is packed with storage, including two drawers underneath and shelving compartments along each bed, so your guests will have somewhere to store their luggage too.

The Trasman Barca Bunk Bed is one of our most popular kid’s bunk beds – and it’s easy to see why!

The clever, reversible design features a staggered style that gives little ones their own space and more privacy than most bunk beds. A built-in wardrobe, shelving, and two large drawers provide plenty of room for all their bits and pieces.

Available in a choice of white, blue or pink, there’s a Barca Bunk for every kid’s bedroom!

7. Oliver Furniture Seaside Lille+ Low Bunk Bed

Moving onto some of our more high-end brands now, this Seaside Lille+ Low Bunk Bed by Oliver Furniture is a firm favourite.

Oliver Furniture specialises in quality Scandinavian kid’s furniture, as showcased in this bed, which is crafted from FSC-certified solid birch wood. You can stick with the beautifully simple white bunk bed, or add the optional roof and canopy (available in a range of colours), as shown here.

Kids will love sleeping under canvas every night – it’s like camping, but without the cold! When little ones are older, purchase the conversion kit to transform your bunk bed into two junior beds. Genius!

8. Oeuf Perch Bunk Bed in White & Birch

Oeuf NYC has created a Nordic masterpiece in their Perch Bunk Bed.

The bed is made in Europe from Baltic birch plywood and Eco-MDF in an FSC-certified facility and exudes Scandinavian charm and quality. There are optional bed guards, a trundle drawer and a straight ladder, so you can customise the bed to suit you.

The base design is clever, too: the bottom bed is separate from the top, meaning you can position them as a standard bunk bed, in an L-shape, or as a separate single and loft bed. This offers longevity and is perfect if your children won’t be sharing a room forever.

9. Lifetime Adventure Hangout Kids Bed

Lifetime’s kid’s beds might not be the cheapest, but they’re certainly some of the best.

The Adventure Hangout Bunk Bed is a dream come true for kids who love building dens (which, in our experience, is most kids!) The upper bunk is fully enclosed, with a built-in opening window and access ladder. They’ll love hiding out up there until dinner time.

Made from knot-free Scandinavian pine, this luxurious bed has plenty of optional extras to make the bed their own – including hanging boxes, clip-on shelves and even a personalised nameplate!
