25 best loveseats for snuggling up in small spaces, whatever your budget and style

It’s no surprise loveseats are in such high demand right now. Smaller than a sofa but larger than an armchair, the best loveseats – or snuggle chairs / love seat sofas – are the perfect space-saving solution the tricky corners in our tinier-than-ever homes. It’s true: a report by Compare My Move released at the end of last year showed England’s average property size to be just 729 sq. ft, which is the smallest it has been since the 1930s. As such, demand small space dining tables, desks for small spaces and opulent-yet-compact statement chairs (read: the humble loveseat) is high.

Before we get going, you’re probably wondering how loveseats are comparable to two-seater sofas. And to be honest – there’s not a world of difference. Both pieces of furniture are designed for two people, they’re just proportioned slightly differently – with the latter being more compact. And while a loveseat can typically fit two people (as long as you ahem get on well with them), they’re also perfect for allowing one individual to stretch out and lounge. The best way to choose between them is to look at the space you’ve got, measure up and see what works best.
