Ah bed. You've probably seen a lot of things in your bed: a lot of Sunday papers, unusual views of your nearest and dearest, Carter and Abbie getting together then breaking up again, Lara Croft executing a nifty somersault, the room spinning.
But have you seen enough of the inside of your own eyelids? Experts claim that weight gain might be just one side effect of too little sleep, while even short term deprivation is a known cause of road accidents, short tempers, and putting the coffee in the fridge and the milk where the coffee should be. If you have trouble sleeping, perhaps your bed is to blame. The Sleep Council reckons that bigger beds promote easier sleep, and of course cope with the demands of a growing family.
Fun as well as stylish, the solid pine four poster (above) from Additions Direct promises a long life as somewhere to sleep, and somewhere to play. From £39.99 to £199.99

After those Scandinavian chaps and chappesses have finished rounding up reindeer, carving hotels out of ice and generally being a lot cleaner, efficient and depressed than us Brits, they retire to beds rather like this one available through Debenhams Direct.

This item is available to home shopping customers only and is not available in Debenhams stores. This item is supplied flat packed for a safer delivery and contains instructions for home assembly. Mattress not included. Priced from £350 - £370.
