Headboards
Headboards are the perfect way to transform your bedroom from simply functional to genuinely comfortable and stylish. Our upholstered headboards provide the ideal support for reading in bed or watching television, with soft padding that's kind to your back and shoulders. You'll find options featuring elegant button detailing or sophisticated quilted patterns, each available in a wide range of colours to complement your existing bedroom scheme. The beauty of a standalone headboard is its versatility – it works brilliantly with our divan beds to create a complete look, or you can use it to refresh the appearance of your current bed setup. If you're considering a complete bedroom overhaul, our bedsteads and bedframes offer integrated headboard options, whilst our mattresses ensure you get the comfort to match your new style. For guest rooms or multipurpose spaces, you might also explore our sofa beds which provide flexible sleeping arrangements. Available in various sizes from single to super king, our headboards offer an affordable way to give your bedroom a fresh new look whilst adding practical comfort to your daily routine.

Christie Deep Headboard
A headboard can do a lot for a bedroom. It gives your bed a finished, considered look that a bare wall simply can't replicate, and a deep, generously upholstered one like the Christie goes a step further by adding real comfort too. It's the kind of piece that quietly transforms a room. The Christie is made by Harrison Spinks, a British bed maker with a long-standing reputation for quality. That heritage shows in the finish: this is a substantial, well-made headboard that feels like a proper piece of furniture rather than an afterthought. The deep profile gives it a presence in a room, making the bed feel like a genuine focal point rather than just somewhere you sleep. At 135cm tall, it sits high enough to lean against comfortably, which makes a genuine difference if you like reading or watching something in bed. It's available in widths of 135cm, 150cm, and 180cm to suit double, king, and superking beds, and the depth is 10cm throughout, giving it that plump, padded feel that looks so good in person.
If you have any questions about whether the Christie is the right fit for your bed, our team is happy to help. You're also very welcome to pop into Carters Bed City, where we have one of the largest Harrison Spinks displays in the country, to see the quality for yourself.

As with all our easy access headboard range, the Boston uses a strut-fix design that attaches to the back of a divan base rather than requiring wall fixings. This is a helpful detail for anyone who moves home regularly, has rental restrictions, or simply doesn't want to drill into their walls. The result is a secure, stable headboard that stays in place reliably once it's set up.

Denver Strutted Headboard
The Denver Strutted Headboard is a smart, well-proportioned upholstered headboard that gives your bed a properly finished look with relatively little effort or expense. It attaches to your divan base via a strut system, making it compatible with a wide range of bases and easy to position correctly without specialist tools.
The benefit of a strutted headboard over a wall-mounted alternative is the simplicity of fitting. You don't need to drill into walls or worry about whether the headboard position aligns correctly with the divan. It sits on the base itself, held by the built-in strut, which makes the whole setup feel reassuringly stable and secure.
The Denver's upholstered finish is comfortable to lean against, which is one of those things that sounds minor but makes a genuine difference to daily bedroom life. Whether you're reaching for a book, adjusting your pillow, or sitting up with a cup of tea in the morning, having a padded surface at your back is simply more pleasant than a hard board or a wall.
The design itself is clean and considered, suiting a range of bedroom styles from traditional to contemporary. It's a headboard that enhances rather than dominates, completing the look of the bed without trying to become the whole story. Available in a range of sizes; check the product page for current listings and fabric options.

Seville Strutted Headboard
The Seville Strutted Headboard is an upholstered headboard that attaches to a divan base via a strut fixing, making it a versatile and straightforward option for anyone looking to update their bedroom. Strutted headboards sit on the divan base itself rather than bolting to the frame, which makes them compatible with a wide range of divans and also means they're straightforward to position and adjust.
The Seville's design is clean and well-proportioned, giving the bed a finished and elegant look without requiring any other changes to the room. A good headboard has a significant impact on how a bedroom reads as a whole. Even if the rest of the room stays exactly the same, introducing an upholstered headboard tends to make everything feel more considered and put together.
The upholstered surface is comfortable to lean against, which matters more than people often anticipate when choosing a headboard. If you spend any time sitting up in bed, a padded headboard makes that time noticeably more comfortable than a hard surface or bare wall.
Available in a range of sizes to suit different divan widths, so you can find an option that fits your existing base properly. It's worth checking your divan has the relevant strut housing before ordering.
from £349
Denver Deep Headboard
The Denver Deep Headboard is a generously upholstered headboard that makes a real difference to how a bedroom feels. Named with a nod to wide-open spaces, the Denver has a confident, substantial quality to it that comes from its considerable depth and height. It's a headboard that makes the bed feel like the main event in a room rather than an afterthought.
Deep, upholstered headboards like the Denver work particularly well in neutral bedrooms where the bed is intended to be the focal point. Without the distraction of busy patterns or elaborate furniture, a well-chosen headboard does all the heavy lifting, and the Denver is up to that job. The padded surface also introduces a softness to the room that other surfaces can't quite match.
Sitting up in bed is a lot more comfortable with a deep, padded headboard to lean against. The Denver's generous depth means there's enough padding to give real cushioning support, making it a genuinely practical choice as well as a visual one. If you spend any meaningful time reading, working, or relaxing in bed, you'll notice the difference.
As with all our headboards, the Denver fits to a divan base using a strut fixing system, which requires the relevant strut housing on the base itself. Check this before purchasing if you're unsure. Multiple sizes are likely available to match standard bed widths. See the product page for current options.
from £329
Seville Deep Headboard
The Seville Deep Headboard takes everything that works about the standard Seville and gives it more depth and height, creating a headboard that really holds its own as a feature in the bedroom. Deep headboards have become a popular choice because they create that sense of a properly finished, hotel-quality bedroom that many people are looking to recreate at home.
The extra padding depth isn't just a visual thing. In practical terms it makes the headboard significantly more comfortable to lean against, whether you're sitting up reading, propped up on pillows watching something on a tablet, or just finding a comfortable position before sleep. The padded depth absorbs and softens in a way that a shallow or hard headboard simply can't match.
Visually, the Seville Deep is the kind of headboard that makes a real statement without doing anything showy. Its impact comes from its generous proportions and quality upholstered finish rather than decorative detailing, which means it works across a range of bedroom styles and colour palettes.
Compatible with divan bases fitted with strut housing, so do check your existing base before ordering. Available in a range of sizes to ensure a proper fit to your bed width. If you'd like to see the fabric and feel the padding in person, the headboard is available to view in our showroom.
from £399
Mantle Deep Headboard
The Mantle Deep Headboard is a beautifully proportioned upholstered headboard that lends real character to a bedroom. The Mantle's particular appeal lies in its deeper, more generous profile that creates a sense of luxury and comfort. It's the kind of headboard that makes a bed feel like a proper centrepiece rather than just a piece of functional furniture.
There's something inherently restful about an upholstered headboard. The softness of the fabric and padding creates a visual warmth that painted wood or metal simply cannot achieve. Combine that with the generous depth of the Mantle, and you have a headboard that not only looks good but genuinely improves the experience of spending time in bed.
The design is deliberately understated, relying on its scale and quality to make a statement rather than decorative flourishes. This means it works beautifully across a range of interior styles, from calming neutral palettes to richer, more layered bedrooms. It's a grown-up headboard in the best sense: considered, well-made, and not trying too hard.
Compatible with standard divan bases and bedframes fitted with the appropriate strut or bolt fixings. Check your existing base before ordering to make sure it can accommodate a standalone headboard. Multiple size options should be available to ensure a proper fit for your bed width.
from £929
Miami Easy Access Headboard
Transform your bedroom into a sanctuary of modern elegance with the Harrison Spinks Miami Easy Access Headboard. Masterfully handcrafted in the UK, this premium floor-standing headboard merges contemporary design with unmatched practical convenience. It features a striking contemporary aesthetic defined by deep, upholstered horizontal panels. These clean lines create an eye-catching focal point that effortlessly complements modern, minimalist, or transitional interior styles. Beyond its visual appeal, the Miami headboard is specifically engineered to solve a common home delivery dilemma. Standard full-height headboards are notoriously difficult to manoeuvre through tight spaces, winding staircases, or narrow doorways. Harrison Spinks solves this with an innovative "Easy Access" design. The headboard is built in smart, detachable sections that split down for transport. This allows you to effortlessly bring boutique-hotel luxury into any room of your house, no matter how restricted the layout. Once assembled inside your room, the headboard sits flush against the floor. This floor-standing design provides exceptional stability compared to traditional strutted options, ensuring your bed never wobbles or sways. It acts as a plush, deeply padded backrest. This makes it the perfect supportive surface for sitting up to read, watch television, or enjoy breakfast in bed.

Seattle Deep Headboard
There's something about a well-chosen headboard that pulls a whole bedroom together. The Seattle Deep Headboard from Harrison Spinks is exactly that kind of piece: generously sized, beautifully upholstered, and substantial enough to give your bed the kind of presence that makes a room feel properly put together rather than just furnished.
Harrison Spinks are a British bed maker with a well-earned reputation for quality, and that comes through here. The Seattle is built to a standard you'd expect from a brand of their standing, with a deep 10cm profile that gives it a plump, luxurious look in person. At 135cm tall, it's high enough to lean against comfortably, which is a genuine practical benefit if you spend any time reading or relaxing in bed. It's available in widths of 135cm, 150cm, and 180cm, making it suitable for double, king, and superking beds. The sizing is worth double-checking against your bed before ordering, and if you're not sure, our team is happy to help you work it out.
