The Herne Bay Headboard is a minimalist upholstered headboard that finishes the room with a calm, tailored, modern hotel look. A slim frame and soft inset panel give it a clean profile, while the high density foam padding makes it a comfortable backrest for sitting up in bed. Because it bolts onto the bed base rather than the wall, it suits renters and smaller bedrooms where an understated headboard works best, and it lifts a plain existing base without drilling. Part of Dreamland's New Zealand bedroom range, the Herne Bay is sized and finished for NZ homes and comes in King Single, Queen and Super King, each 120 cm high, in two versatile colours.

  • Slim frame and soft inset panel for a clean, modern, understated profile.
  • High density foam padding gives comfortable support when sitting up in bed.
  • Two versatile colours: a darker Grey or a lighter Steel.
  • Standard M8 bolt slot fitment for most New Zealand bed bases, with no wall fixing, so it suits renters and smaller rooms.
  • Sized and finished for NZ homes in King Single, Queen and Super King, each 120 cm high.

Good to know

What sizes does the Herne Bay come in, and what are the measurements?

The Herne Bay comes in King Single, Queen and Super King, each 120 cm high and 12 cm thick. King Single is 107 cm wide, Queen is 153 cm wide, and Super King is 183 cm wide. Choose the size that matches your bed base.

Will the Herne Bay fit my bed?

The Herne Bay is designed to fit standard New Zealand King Single, Queen and Super King bed bases, so match the headboard size to your base. It attaches with standard M8 bolt slots to most NZ bed bases, rather than fixing to the wall.

How does the Herne Bay attach, and are the bolts included?

The Herne Bay attaches with standard NZ M8 bolt slots to the mounting points on your bed base, not to the wall. No bolts are included with the headboard: the mounting bolts come with your headboard ready base, and for a base that does not supply them, use standard NZ M8 bolts. Match the headboard size to your base.

What colours does the Herne Bay come in?

The Herne Bay comes in a durable woven fabric in two versatile colours: a darker Grey or a lighter Steel. Both suit a clean, modern bedroom.

What is the Herne Bay made of, and how do I care for it?

The Herne Bay has high density foam padding under a durable woven fabric cover, with a slim frame and soft inset panel. Vacuum the fabric on low suction with an upholstery attachment, and blot any marks with a clean, lightly damp cloth rather than rubbing or soaking the fabric.

Who is the Herne Bay best suited to?

The Herne Bay suits anyone who wants a clean, understated headboard rather than a bold statement: it is a good choice for smaller bedrooms, for renters and others who cannot or prefer not to fix a headboard to the wall, and for modern rooms. It works as a standalone upgrade or paired with a Dreamland bed base.
