Introducing the Blackdown Swinging Day Bed

If ever there was a place designed for slow afternoons, warm conversations, and a well-earned moment, it’s here, beneath the hand-crafted Green Oak Canopy of our Blackdown Swinging Day Bed. Created for those who value comfort, craft and a little bit of magic, this is no ordinary garden seat. This is a luxurious invitation to unwind.

Crafted for comfort and style

Our Swinging Day Bed is built to be as beautiful as it is durable. The canopy is crafted from Green Oak, chosen not just for its natural strength and weathering character, but for the way it brings a sense of timeless charm to your garden or outdoor space. Suspended within is the bespoke day bed, generously wide enough for two people to lay back side by side. Whether you’re curling up with a good book or stretching out under the sky, it offers the perfect blend of support and softness.

Thoughtful details, tailored to you

This isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. The Swinging Day Bed can be made bespoke, with options like discreet oak footrests that pull out when needed, and plush cushion sets in a range of outdoor fabrics. Every detail is considered and crafted with care, to suit your space and your way of relaxing.

 

Under the stars, or sheltered from the Sun

One of our favourite features for you to enjoy has to be the optional Starlight LED Ceiling. Hidden within the oak canopy, this twinkling array of warm white lights transforms the structure as day turns to dusk. It’s a gentle, enchanting glow, perfect for evening chats, a glass of something cold, or simply soaking up the sounds of the night.

Your garden Retreat awaits

Whether you’re looking to add a standout feature to your hotel grounds, a peaceful corner to a private garden, or a romantic hideaway on your glampsite our Swinging Day Bed brings a sense of luxury and ease. It’s the perfect companion to one of our handcrafted Shepherd Huts, imagine stepping out of your hut with a morning coffee, or winding down at dusk beneath the glow of the starlight canopy. Together, they create a truly special outdoor retreat — a space to rest, reconnect, and savour the slower moments. Beautifully made, built to last, and designed for everyday enjoyment, it’s an investment in calm, comfort and craft.
