A House-Inspired Bunk Bed for Shared Bedrooms
The COTTAGE brings together the practicality of a bunk bed and the charm of a wooden playhouse-inspired design.
Its half-roof structure gives the upper sleeping area a distinctive look without enclosing the entire bed. The two vertically arranged sleeping spaces help free up floor space for playing, storage and other bedroom furniture.
With a choice of natural and two-tone finishes, the COTTAGE can be styled to suit everything from bright, colourful children's bedrooms to calmer, neutral interiors.
Storage Stairs with a Choice of Position
Instead of a traditional ladder, the COTTAGE features a staircase with integrated storage.
The stairs provide access to the upper bunk while making practical use of space that might otherwise go unused.
Choose whether the staircase is positioned on the left or right when ordering, allowing you to plan the bed around the layout of your child's bedroom.
Please check your selected stair position carefully before ordering. The bed must be assembled according to the manufacturer's instructions for that configuration.
Choose Your Underbed Configuration
Make the most of the space beneath the lower bunk with one of four available configurations.
Option 1: No Drawer
Choose the standard bunk bed without an additional underbed drawer or pull-out sleeping space.
