Need a charging port? No problem. Ambient Bedside Lamp
A bedside table is an integral part of any bedroom. First and foremost, it's where you can place your lamp and alarm clock, along with your morning cup of tea. You can store your book here too, and hide extra clutter in the drawers.
But it also gives you an opportunity to get creative with styling, helping you to turn your bedroom into the calming sanctuary it should be. Candles, vases, little plants and photo frames will all give your space a bit more character.
There are plenty of styles available, so consider your room's needs before purchasing. Think about the space you have available, along with your existing furniture. Below, we've found a range of bedside tables to suit different spaces, so there should be something for everyone.
Mercury Row rules the roost on looks. This bedside table's rich, dark wood looks luxe while adding warmth, with the solid pinewood legs and brass button handle creating an industrial finish.
But it's not all about appearance: there's plenty of space for books, crockery and a light.
Made from recycled wood, this is a taller-than-average bedside table for those who need plenty of storage space. We love its gently curved frame, which will add interest to any space.
With two sockets and two USB ports, this bedside table allows you to hide wires easily. Plug in your lamp, alarm clock, or anything else you may need, while easy access to USBs means you can charge Kindles and phones too.
Grecian pieces are always on trend. This pillar-style table, with clever hidden storage, is a simple way to bring this style into your home.
Yes, this is expensive, but its unusual design makes it worth the splurge. Shining bone inlay has been laid carefully over a vibrant jade green frame to make a gorgeous boho table.
Pair with bedding in rich jewel tones to do it justice — it's a real statement piece for your master bedroom.
This table's chocolatey wood finish feels opulent, while pretty starburst detailing and bone inlay handles add extra interest. There's a cable tidy for your bedside lamp, too.
The sweet scalloped edges and soothing sage green bring plenty of country charm to this fun bedside table. Finish with a brightly upholstered lamp and pair with linen bedding for a fresh, pretty look.
Another tall offering but this time with a small footprint, this is a great buy for those limited on floor space. The pearl grey shade will add warmth to your bedroom while the cane front drawers up the style on an otherwise simple design.
This ash wood bedside table is elegant, timeless and chic, with a roomy drawer for storage. There's also a matching bed frame to complete the look — just add a floral lamp and some brass accents.
Don't be scared of dark furniture – when used correctly, black can be striking and/or versatile. We'd pair this table with a statement gold lamp to create a beautifully eclectic look.
An easy way to make a space feel bigger and brighter is to keep the floor area clear. This sleek floating table has all the room for your nighttime essentials, with virtually no footprint at all.
Slim black frames, stylish curved finishes and Italian marble will make this table a seriously chic addition to your bedroom. Pair with white bedding and keep the decorative items to a minimum — a simple black lamp is all this table needs.
Lighter wood tends to give an airier feel, so it's a great choice for those who prefer Scandi-style decor.
Made from responsibly sourced timber, this Oak-effect model comes with a handy storage gap and stylish brushed metal handles.
This no-frills design will go with virtually any decor, and roomy cupboards will stow away all the books on your to-read list, without cluttering up your surfaces.
This set of two is a great option for your guest room. It comes in a choice of four colours and, while they are small, there's plenty of space for a book, a mug and a lamp — which is all you need, really.
