Hideaway Kids Bed

Product Description

The Hideaway Kids Bed from Hide & Seek Kids brings enchanting charm and cozy comfort to children's bedrooms. This distinctive design features a fully enclosed house-shaped frame with peaked roof styling and protective side panels that create a secure, nest-like sleeping environment. The hideaway aesthetic provides the sense of having a special secret space while maintaining the practical functionality of a quality timber bed.

Crafted from solid timber construction with eco-friendly paint finishes, this bed offers both durability and child safety. The enclosed house-frame design creates a comforting, protected feeling that many children find soothing at bedtime. The side panels provide a sense of security while the front opening ensures easy access and adequate ventilation.

Available in three practical sizes—single, king single, and double—the Hideaway Bed adapts to different room layouts and family needs. Choose from three sophisticated colour options: natural pine for organic warmth, crisp white for timeless versatility, or stylish dark grey for contemporary appeal. Note that natural pine is available in single and king single sizes only. The pre-finished construction means it arrives ready to assemble and use.

The enclosed design provides wonderful opportunities for personalisation. Many families add fairy lights inside for a magical nighttime glow, hang decorative bunting along the roof peak, or use the frame structure to create cozy reading nooks with cushions and soft lighting. The solid timber construction ensures stability for years of bedtime stories, imaginative play, and peaceful sleep.

Important Care & Safety Information

Assembly Notes

• Assembly required - bed arrives partially assembled with detailed instructions
• A second person is strongly recommended due to the size and enclosed frame structure
• Do not overtighten screws as this can cause timber to split or crack
• Tighten screws until snug and secure, but not overly tight
• All assembly hardware and instructions included in cartons
• Basic tools required (typically included in most households)
• Allow adequate time for assembly
• Assemble on carpet or use cardboard to protect flooring during assembly

Placement Considerations

• Ensure room has adequate ceiling height (bed is 186cm high—recommend 210cm+ ceilings)
• Position bed to allow comfortable access through front opening
• Allow space around the bed for easy access and changing sheets
• Consider placement for personalisation opportunities (fairy lights require nearby power outlet)
• Ensure bed placement allows for adequate room ventilation
• Front opening should remain unobstructed for safety and access

Maintenance & Care

• Regularly inspect the bed for signs of wear or damage, particularly at frame joints and side panels
• Check screws and bolts periodically and tighten as needed
• Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent
• Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish
• Touch up paint as needed to maintain appearance (use quality interior paint matching your colour)
• Ensure any decorative additions (lights, fabrics) are securely attached and child-safe
• Keep the front opening clear for easy access and safety

Hideaway vs. Cubby House Bed

Hide & Seek Kids offers two house-style bed designs. Understanding the differences helps you choose the best fit for your child:

Hideaway Bed: Features fully enclosed sides with panels creating a more private, protected sleeping space. Best for children who enjoy cozy, nest-like environments or who prefer more visual privacy. The enclosed design creates a stronger "secret hideaway" effect.

Cubby House Bed: Features an open house frame with peaked roof but no side panels. Provides the playhouse aesthetic with more open, airy feel. Best for families preferring better visual access to the sleeping child or for rooms requiring more airflow visibility.

Both beds offer the same quality solid timber construction, eco-friendly finishes, and imaginative house-frame styling. Your choice depends on whether you prefer the enclosed, cozy feel of the Hideaway or the open, accessible feel of the Cubby House design.
