Looking for a decent captain/cabin bed

bylromarha

Looking for a new bed for DD.

She wants to be closer to her ceiling than she currently is!

The ones we've seen in Ikea don't fit the bill, and I'm reluctant to buy from Argos due to poor quality.

Any recommendations of companies from anyone please?

Looking to spend up to £500.

Features wanted: In the area under the bed, we'd like a desk/bookcase, 2nd bed or sofa definitely and, if space, drawers/cupboard too.

Thanks

Any idea of quality?

We have the Oxford from Mrs Flatpack, and it seems very good. Took quite a while to put together, but sturdy, and lots of storage space. Price is good, too. DD is 9 and its plenty high enough/grown up enough for her for a good few years yet! It doesn't have a second bed built in, but we bought a basic Gilda flip out foam chair bed for £30 for DDs room for sleepovers. If its likely to be used a lot, I'd perhaps go for something a bit more sturdy than that though, like a chair futon etc

Another fan of mrs flat pack. I bought my son a high sleeper cabin bed and it's very sturdy and good quality,also very good value at £250 including delivery. I would order of them again.

WE bought DS a high sleeper bed when we moved into our new flat a couple of years ago - he loves it. We bought it from http://www.pinebed.co.uk/page33.html

It needed some assembly, and we chose the raw pine version, so OH then varnished it. It's bolted to the wall, and is really stable, no creaks or wobbles. We then also bought a wardrobe and chest of drawers to go under it. I'll try to take a photo later if I remember.

We got ours from here: http://www.rainbowwoodsouth.co.uk

Nice showroom and they deliver and assemble too. Not sure if they will have anything in your budget but the prices are on the web site.
Very happy with the mid sleeper, drawers and cube cupboard - all good quality and sturdy. We can take the leg extensions off and turn the mid sleeper into an ordinary single bed if we need to later on.

Edit to add more info: I remember there was a bed in the showroom from a range that was being updated and it was being sold at a pretty good discount. I've checked and we bought a Cresta Scallywag but that might be a but pricey for you, sorry.

My kids have both got Cresta Scallywag beds. My son has the high sleeper and my daughter has the mid sleeper. I think £500 might be a bit of a stretch though.

This is pretty much my daughter's set-up although she has a pull-out desk.

^^ If bensons for beds sell it, you can find it cheaper elsewhere..
