Sofa Beds

Give your room more possibilities with sofa beds from Heavenly Beds in Cheltenham, serving Gloucestershire with UK-wide delivery.

Combining daytime seating with a sleeping space when needed, a sofa bed is a practical option for guest rooms, home offices and living areas that serve more than one purpose. Explore designs that look at home within your furniture scheme while offering another way to welcome overnight visitors.

Compare single and double sleeping options, fabric and leather-effect finishes, and the mechanisms available across the range. Check the opened dimensions as well as the sofa footprint, and consider how often the bed will be used. Our Cheltenham team can help you understand the mattress or sleeping surface, operating instructions and included features, so you can choose a sofa bed around both its everyday role and its guest-room purpose.
BUYING GUIDE

Compare comfort for sitting and sleeping

A sofa bed needs to work in two different ways, so compare the seated feel and the sleeping surface separately. The construction, cushion arrangement and mattress specification vary between models.

Start with the role it will perform most often, then check the manufacturer's guidance on sleeping use. A guest-room purchase may need different features from the main sofa in a living room.

Decide which matters more before you choose. If guests come twice a year, buy the better sofa. If someone is sleeping on it weekly, buy the better bed.

Mechanism types

Fold-out mechanisms have a metal frame that unfolds from under the seat with a mattress attached. More like a proper bed, and the better choice for regular use.

Click-clack backs drop flat to make a sleeping surface from the seat cushions themselves. Simpler, cheaper, nothing to go wrong, but you are sleeping on sofa cushions.

Try opening it yourself

In the showroom, open and close it. If it takes two people or real strength, remember that the person making it up at midnight will probably be doing it alone.

For holiday lets and serviced accommodation

For a holiday let or serviced apartment, choose a model specified for the intended use and discuss durability, cleaning and delivery requirements. Adding a sofa bed does not by itself establish the property's permitted occupancy.

For multiple properties, our contract beds page covers trade supply.

FAQ

Questions we get asked most

Open seven days.01452 260206
Is a sofa bed comfortable enough to sleep on regularly?

Choose a model whose stated use matches how often someone will sleep on it. Compare the sleeping surface, support and ease of opening separately from the seated comfort. A fold-out mechanism alone does not guarantee suitability for nightly use. Ask Heavenly Beds in Cheltenham about models available to try before making your choice.

What size bed does it make?

Use the listed sleeping-surface measurements, not the number of sofa seats, to judge the bed size. Sofa-bed mattresses may differ from standard bed dimensions. Check the full footprint when opened and leave room for access, bedding and nearby furniture, including anything that must move when guests stay.

Can I use a normal mattress topper?

Check the sofa-bed manufacturer's guidance before adding a topper, and choose one that fits the actual sleeping surface. An extra layer changes the feel but does not repair an unsuitable or damaged mattress. Remove any topper before folding unless the instructions explicitly allow it, and plan a dry place to store it between visits.

Do you supply sofa beds for holiday lets?

Contact us with the property type, quantities, expected sleeping use and required specification so we can check suitable options. Consider cleaning, mattress protection and ease of changeover as well as appearance. Our Contract Beds page is the starting point for trade enquiries; a domestic sofa bed is not automatically suitable for every accommodation setting.
