Your eldest is home from university for the summer with boxes and boxes of extra belongings.\u00a0 There\u2019s never anywhere to keep spare duvets and linen (where DO people put all that stuff anyway?) And if you trip over that single ski that\u2019s been lurking in the corner for SO long you think you might go insane.<\/p>\n

Sound familiar?\u00a0 We know the situation all to well.<\/p>\n

In fact, behind my chic and sophisticated minimalist and contemporary interior (that is totally magazine worthy don\u2019t you know?!) lies a shameful secret \u2026 The one room in the house that we\u2019ve all got where things go to die.\u00a0 That\u2019s right \u2013 I know you\u2019ve got one too, don\u2019t deny it!\u00a0 It\u2019s a wonderful four walls full of the detritus of building a happy life.\u00a0 Childhood memories, sit alongside my children\u2019s first artworks from playschool. My beloved steam mop and guest towels wobble atop boxes of family photograph albums.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re fed up with the chaos, The Headboard Workshop offers several practical and beautiful opportunities for optimising storage space in your bedrooms that was otherwise wasted.<\/p>\n

Advantages and Disadvantages<\/h2>\n

So, let\u2019s take a look at the advantages of an amazing ottoman bed and how designing your own with The Headboard Workshop is the perfect solution for maximising stash potential whilst keeping your belongings close at hand and easily accessible.<\/p>\n

They are especially brilliant in spare rooms or as beds for holiday lets where you may need to keep extra bedding to hand.<\/p>\n

The Kingsize Alderney Ottoman bed<\/a> is a powerhouse of engineering.\u00a0 \u00a0The Alderney boasts a super strong steel frame not a flimsy timber frame like most.\u00a0 Solid timber sides also make for supreme build quality.\u00a0 This combination supports a very comfortable slatted base for your mattress.\u00a0 The lift mechanism is gas powered allowing for easy and smooth opening and closing.\u00a0 They work incredibly reliably and look very smart indeed!<\/p>\n

Because the Alderney Ottoman Bed is fully upholstered, you can choose which ever fabric you prefer from The Headboard Workshops extensive range of over 150 materials<\/a>, or, you can even supply your own!\u00a0 But, that\u2019s not the only thing you can bespoke!<\/p>\n

Other tailored options include the height of the bed base.\u00a0 There are two heights available from The Headboard Workshop; a 30 cm height and a 40 cm height.\u00a0 This makes an ottoman bed a viable option no matter how much head room you have.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s a choice of colour of glides and even the ability to add a stunning headboard and mattress to match and a host of accessories from cushions and bedroom chairs to complete the look.<\/p>\n

Options and Sizes<\/h2>\n

The Alderney bed is available as a single<\/a> ottoman bed, 4ft small double<\/a> and double<\/a> ottoman bed and in a kingsize<\/a> or super king<\/a> version direct from The Headboard Workshop, who will make yours by hand, using over 30 years of craftsmanship and experience.\u00a0 Their dedicated two man delivery team will even deliver and assemble your new bed.\u00a0 \u00a0They\u2019ll also take all the packaging away, leaving to give that errant spare ski a place to call home (- finally!).<\/p>\n
