Bed Kingdom in Barnstaple is a local family business with a history of excellent service. The business was established by Laurie and Peggy Harvey in 1963, as Kings Carpets, and their very first shop began at 86 High Street, Ilfracombe. In 1974 Laurie and Peggy’s own son, Martin, joined the company as a fitter’s apprentice. By this time the company employed twelve people and had an excellent client base throughout North Devon. Martin’s son Jack has now joined the company making the third generation in the family business. In 1976 the company purchased the adjacent building to Kings Carpets to sell beds and furniture and the Bed Kingdom brand was launched. ​ We pride ourselves on offering great value with excellent customer service.
