Trundle Bed Frames Are Great For Small Bedrooms

My home place is nestled in the woods, really close to the river. Since I moved here I seem to have more overnight guests at least a few weekends out of the year. It seems everyone loves to stay out here in the woods and close to the river. Some even want to spend their holiday here!
I have a large loft area which is part of a two-story cottage style home. This area is the master bedroom suite. I have a four-posted queen size bed in it. It’s a beauty…but also quite large and takes up the whole room…almost!
The lower level has a full bath and two small bedrooms. The larger of the two bedrooms is my daughters.
I had to decide how I was going to set up the smaller bedroom to accommodate the number of guests I expect to have.
It would really be cramped with a full size bed. I considered bunk beds, but that wouldn’t really suit most of the company I usually have.
I also wanted to use this space as a small office area so I also considered a sofa sleeper, but most of them were too large and the mattresses aren’t very comfortable. I was looking on line for a solution when I came across this
I looked at many day beds and discovered these really nice trundle beds. This one is a twin size bed that is a bit higher off the floor to accommodate a trundle bed frame to slide underneath it.
The trundle bed frames are designed to pop up and be the same height as the twin bed when they are pulled out. When the trundle bed frames are raised and connected to the twin bed they create a king size bed. The trundle bed frames can also remain lowered to create a second twin size sleeping area.
I went with the

This seemed like a great solution for such a small room. I chose the maple wood frame day bed but others were available.
I had some cushions that I placed against the back frame so that when the bed is not needed it can be used like a sofa.
This looks very nice in the small room and creates a comfortable sleeping space for one or two people when needed. I highly recommend this Trundle bed and for my little place in the woods this turned out to be the best alternative to accommodate guests.
I also found the following trundle very appealing.

Trundle beds remind me of staying at bed a breakfasts. These were some of the nicest vacations I had.
A trundle bed certainly does help when your managing space.
Love the story style of this post. I found myself getting interested in your weekends and your guests and consequently followed the flow to the end – not common for me!
Now if only I was in need of a trundle bed!
Great post David. Love how you described where you live and how your home is designed. It gives a personal touch as well as what to do with a needed small bedroom. Trundle beds are neat.

lol – my friends have referred to the place in that way…just have to work on my B & B manors I guess!
Trundles are neat!

Always glad to try and pique the interest of our readers. Maybe someday I’ll plan a B & B retreat out here in the woods. I’ll have to buy more Trundles!
