Chunky Wooden Bed Frame with a Panelled Headboard and Footboard
The Bamford is a solid wood farmhouse bed built the old-fashioned way: chunky 95mm square posts at all four corners, a tall panelled headboard and a matching footboard, each topped with a deep redwood cap that overhangs the posts. The panels are vertical V-jointed boards set in a solid frame, like a cottage door, so the bed looks substantial from every side of the room without being fussy.
It is made to order in our Derbyshire workshop from solid Scandinavian redwood and finished by hand in Medium Oak hard wax oil, a warm mid-brown that sits well with oak floors and painted walls alike. Three sizes: double, king and super king.
Sizes
| Size | Mattress (W x L) | Bed overall (W x L) | Inside the frame (W x L) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Double (4ft 6in) | 135 x 190cm | 169 x 222.5cm | 137 x 195cm |
| King (5ft) | 150 x 200cm | 184 x 232.5cm | 152 x 205cm |
| Super King (6ft) | 180 x 200cm | 214 x 232.5cm | 182 x 205cm |
Headboard 120cm high and footboard 81cm, each with an 18cm deep cap. The side rails are 22cm deep and sit 17cm off the floor, so there is 17cm clear underneath for storage boxes.
Built to last
The posts are 95mm solid redwood and the side rails are 45mm thick and 22cm deep. The slats rest on solid timber ledgers along each side and on a centre rail with its own legs, so they are supported in three places and the bed stays quiet and solid for years.

15 Year Warranty.
Every bed is covered by our 15 Year Warranty against manufacturing faults, from the date of purchase. We make everything ourselves in Derbyshire โ nothing is imported or outsourced โ which is why we can stand behind it for so long.
- Built to be repaired, not replaced. The hard wax oil finish can be sanded back and re-oiled at home, and we'll always help you look after your bed for as long as you own it.
- If something's wrong, call 01629 343350 or email us with a couple of photos and your order number. We'll repair or replace the affected part.
- Covers domestic use by the original purchaser. Normal wear such as scratches, dents and marks, and the natural seasonal movement of solid wood, aren't faults and aren't covered. Full terms.
Made to order in our Derbyshire workshop, usually 3โ4 weeks from order. Delivery is free to the UK mainland (excluding the Highlands and offshore islands) by 2-man delivery, with a 3-hour time slot and live on-the-day tracking.
Will it fit? The bed arrives in parts, ready to put together in about 30 minutes with two people. The headboard comes in one piece and is the largest part: the size guide image for your size shows every part and how big it is, so you can check it will go up your stairs and round the landing. If it's tight, call us on 01629 343350 before you order.
Returns: if you wish to return your bed, contact us within 15 days of delivery. We'll arrange collection from the delivery address; because of the size and weight there is a collection charge for unwanted items that aren't faulty or damaged. Your refund is processed once the bed is back with us and inspected. Full details on our Delivery and returns page.
