Small tables for your living room
Few things are quite as satisfying as settling down on the sofa with a nice hot cuppa—until you realise there’s nowhere to put it down. Our ranges of small tables offer the perfect spot for your favourite hot beverage, table lamps, picture frames, and more.
Designed to fit perfectly beside sofas and armchairs , adding small tables to your living space means you’ll never be short of a surface when you need one—and you might even find room for a biscuit or two.
Our side tables are available in various shapes and sizes, making them perfect for slotting into the room of your choice. From round to square to rectangular small tables, experiment with placement to find the perfect spot to suit your space and style.
Oak side tables
Each of our side tables has been thoughtfully designed and made to stand the test of time. While most of our tables are crafted from high-quality oak, you can also find small tables made from other quality hardwoods such as acacia, ash, and mango wood providing the perfect mix of style and durability.
Our solid oak side tables come in a range of finishes to complement any decor. Choose a rich, honey-toned glaze for a warm, rustic charm or a clear wax finish that enhances the wood’s natural blonde hues, while providing lasting protection.
Painted side tables
When choosing a small side table made from acacia or ash, you’ll find a variety of colours with a smooth and durable painted finish. Made from acacia wood, these pieces offer versatility with shades such as black, white, or grey, while neutral tones like sage grey, inky blue, or charcoal add an elegant touch. These deep, statement hues beautifully complement the lacquered or waxed tops, showcasing the wood’s unique grain and natural character.
Side tables with storage
Our small side tables are more than just a stylish addition to your home—they’re designed to be practical too. Many of our side tables benefit from built-in storage, whether a low shelf, a drawer, or both, offering a clever way to keep your space tidy.
Small tables with storage are ideal for avid readers, as the low shelves serve as a place to stack magazines or a temporary home for your favourite book between chapters.
The compact drawers are ideal for stowing away small essentials—helping to reduce clutter. From TV remotes and spare batteries to notepads, pens, coasters and tea lights, our handy storage solutions ensure everything you need is always close by.
Styling your side table
Beyond their practical uses, our side tables also enhance your interior style. Whether placed in the living room or bedroom, they offer the perfect space for decorative touches that reflect your taste.
A beautifully framed family photo adds warmth and sentiment, while a vase of fresh or dried flowers is ideal for brightening a room.
For a blend of style and function consider dressing your side tables with a statement table lamp. Match the base and/or shade to your room’s colour scheme and switch it on for low, warm lighting.

What is the difference between a side table and a nightstand?
Both are small tables; however, side tables tend to be placed next to a sofa, or in the living room. Nightstands have the same function, but are placed next to a bed, also known as a bedside table .
What is another name for a side table?
Side tables are often also referred to as end tables or occasional tables. These are all small tables placed next to a sofa in the living room. A nest of tables can also be used as a side table, although you’ll also have matching tables in a smaller size to place around your living room.
These differ from console tables, which are longer and more commonly placed in hallways.
