A sideboard is one of the hardest-working pieces of furniture in the home - low, wide storage that swallows clutter while giving you a generous surface to style. Our range spans compact two-door designs for smaller rooms, roomy three- and four-door pieces for family living and dining, and mixed drawer-and-cupboard layouts, in oak, walnut, painted, oak-effect and glass-fronted finishes to suit any scheme.
Below you will find clear guidance on choosing the right size, storage and finish, so your sideboard looks in proportion and keeps your room tidy day to day - with fast UK delivery and 30-day returns on every order.
In a dining room, a sideboard is the natural home for table linen, crockery, glassware and serving dishes, with the top doubling as a serving surface at mealtimes. In a living room, it hides games, paperwork and cables while displaying lamps, photos and art. In a hallway or open-plan space, a slimmer sideboard adds storage and a welcoming surface without eating into the walkway. Think about what you most need to tuck away, then match the balance of drawers and cupboards to it.
Measure the wall and the doorways the sideboard must pass through before you buy. Leave a little breathing space either side rather than filling the wall edge to edge, and if you are pairing it with a mirror or artwork, keep the art to around two-thirds the width of the sideboard for a balanced look. Allow room for doors and drawers to open fully, and in a dining room make sure a seated guest or a passing person still has comfortable clearance behind the chairs.
On finish, solid and oak-effect wood is warm and durable, painted designs suit country and coastal rooms, and contemporary finishes with slim legs keep a small room feeling light. Soft-close doors and drawers are worth having where a sideboard is in daily use.
Treat the top like a mini display. Anchor one end with a lamp, lean or hang art or a mirror above, and add a couple of layered pieces - a stack of books, a bowl or a vase of stems - keeping heights varied and the grouping to odd numbers. Leave part of the surface clear so it stays practical for serving or setting things down, and use a tray to corral the everyday.
A sideboard offers low, wide storage for anything from table linen and crockery to games, paperwork and cables, with a useful top surface for lamps, art and serving. It suits dining rooms, living rooms and hallways alike.
Measure the wall and the doorways it must pass through, then leave a little space either side rather than filling the wall edge to edge. Make sure the doors and drawers have room to open fully once it is in place.
Drawers suit cutlery, linen and smaller items you reach for often, while cupboards hide bulkier things such as serving dishes and board games. A mixed layout of drawers over cupboards is the most versatile everyday choice.
Centre the art on the sideboard and keep it to around two-thirds the width of the piece for a balanced look. Leaving a small gap above the surface connects the two without them feeling crowded.
Yes. In a living room a sideboard hides games, paperwork and clutter while displaying lamps and photos, and a slimmer design works well in a hallway or open-plan space too.
We deliver across the UK, carefully packed, and every sideboard is covered by our 30-day returns policy so you can be confident it is right for your room.
