The Monk Futon Bed Roll

Friday 26 February 2021





The Monk Futon Bed Roll has been around for decades. It is a staple piece, traditional and classic, perfect for an authentic, firm feel. 


Our Monk Futons are available in three sizes: single, double and king. Each bedroll is handmade in our studio in Plymouth, UK - from sewing the mattresses covers, to tufting them, each is made with love and care. The Monk Roll is manufactured using a top and bottom layer of pure lambswool, with two layers of cotton-felt in between. We then button them through using felt mattress tufts, giving a thickness of around 8 cm. We also offer an upgrade to include the addition of a mini pocket sprung cage, creating the Pocket Monk. This provides a softer, supportive feel through individually pocketed, 3 cm springs — ideal for more regular use, with around 10 cm total thickness.


The ever-popular Monk Futons have been around for decades, often copied, but never quite to the same as the original. They are very practical, designed to be easily rolled up and secured with the provided velcro straps. This makes it easy to carry around or store.



Where To Use A Monk Futon - 


A Monk Futon Bed Roll is excellent as a stopover bedroll for campers, yurts or similar accommodations. Perfect for solo travellers, who want to throw a bedroll into their van for extra comfort. Consider using the Monk Futon for stay-cations, back garden campouts or as soft extra seating for your family movie night. 


In comparison, use your Monk Futon as a more permanent sleeping space by pairing it with our Folding Tatami Floor Mat. 



Overall, the Monk Futon is adaptable to any situation where you might require additional sleeping space or a quick sleeping solution. Pick from our various fabrics to guarantee your Monk futon is perfect for you. So get yourself comfy, have a seat to meditate or relax on, have a snooze and, once you’re done with it, simply roll it up until next time!
