Luxury beds don’t have to cost a fortune
We’ve all seen those beds in glossy magazines: oversized, plush, and screaming “I cost more than your car.”
Truth? You can get the same style, comfort and craftsmanship for a fraction of the price.
This Funkybedz bed buying guide is all about picking beds that look luxurious without emptying your wallet.
Start with a solid base
Your bed frame sets the tone.
Opt for designs that feel premium: upholstered, wingback, or sleigh styles give instant luxury vibes.
Our wingback bed frames, Chesterfield bed frames and sleigh bed frames combine style with practical UK-friendly pricing.
Storage beds double up on value
Luxury isn’t just about looks — it’s about practicality.
Storage beds save space, hide clutter and make your room feel organised, which instantly ups the premium vibe.
Ottoman beds for premium practicality
Lift the base and reveal hidden storage.
Perfect for bedding, clothes or anything that usually sits in a heap.
Our ottoman beds prove function can look fancy.
Gas lift storage beds
Effortless lifting, smooth mechanisms and a clean look.
Luxury without the elbow grease.
See our gas lift storage beds for fuss-free storage elegance.
Choose luxe fabrics on a budget
Velvet, soft faux leather, tweed textures — all add instant style.
Our fabric selection lets you pick the look you want without paying through the nose.
Smart mattress choices matter
A luxury bed isn’t just about the frame.
Pair with the right mattress for comfort, support and style.
Pocket sprung mattresses
Great for support and durability.
Ideal for couples or those who toss and turn.

Memory foam mattresses
Soft, pressure-relieving and cozy.
Feels like a premium hotel bed without the price tag.
Explore our memory foam mattresses for cloud-like comfort.
Size doesn’t need to break the bank
King or super king beds feel indulgent, but small double beds can be styled luxuriously too.
Measure your room and pick a size that feels spacious but practical.
See our small double beds, king size beds and super king beds for options that suit your space.
Accessorise like a designer
Luxury is in the details. Throws, cushions and bedside benches elevate a room instantly.
Our end-of-bed benches and ottoman storage boxes give style and function without adding cost.
Lighting and layout create the vibe
Soft lighting, smart placement and a clear floor plan make even a budget bed feel expensive.
Pair with neutral tones and a few statement pieces to create that “magazine bedroom” look.
