Night Lights

Our night light range covers the low-level lighting that guides safe movement after dark. We hand-pick plug-in socket night lights and LED designs with soft, warm output, some with dusk-till-dawn sensors or dimming, for bedrooms, children's rooms, landings and hallways. They give just enough light to see by without breaking sleep. We ship to the UK, US and worldwide.

What a night light is for

A night light gives just enough soft light to move safely after dark without turning on a bright overhead fixture. It marks the way to a bathroom, lights a landing or stair edge, and reassures a child settling to sleep. The key is low, warm, glare-free light: enough to see by, not enough to wake you fully or stop you dropping back off. We hand-pick our night light range from specialist makers we work with directly, choosing designs that give a gentle glow rather than a harsh point of light. For softer bedside light a step up from a night light, see our bedside lamps range.

Plug-in night lights and sensor options

A plug-in night light fits straight into a wall socket and needs no wiring, which makes it the simplest option for a landing, hallway or child's bedroom. Many include a dusk-till-dawn sensor that switches the light on automatically as the room darkens and off again at daybreak, so it only runs when needed. Others use a motion sensor that triggers as you pass, useful on a stair or in a hallway at night. Some are removable and double as a soft torch. Plug-in designs suit any room with a spare socket near the spot you want to light.

LED night lights: warm light and low running cost

Almost every night light now uses LED, and for good reason: an LED night light draws tiny amounts of power, stays cool to the touch even after running all night, and lasts for years without a lamp change. That low power draw means it costs very little to leave on from dusk to dawn. The lamps in this range lean towards warm, amber-leaning white, which is the kindest tone for sleep because it carries less of the blue light that can keep you alert. Cool, bright night lights exist, but warm output is the better choice in a bedroom or nursery.

Night lights for children's rooms, bedrooms and landings

Placement decides the kind of night light you want. In a child's room, a soft, warm plug-in light or a glowing character light reassures without lighting the whole room, and a dusk-till-dawn sensor saves switching it on and off. On a landing or stair, a sensor light that triggers on movement marks the edges safely for anyone up in the night. In a main bedroom, a low plug-in light near the door or a dim bedside glow covers night trips without waking a partner; our bedroom lights and hallway lighting ranges cover the wider fixtures for those rooms. For a brighter bedside option than a night light, see our table lamps range.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does a plug-in night light work?

A plug-in night light fits straight into a mains wall socket and needs no wiring or installation. Many have a built-in dusk-till-dawn light sensor that switches the light on automatically as the room gets dark and off again at first light, so it only runs when it is needed. Some use a motion sensor instead, lighting up as you pass and switching off shortly after, which suits a stair or hallway. Others stay on as a constant low glow. A few are removable from the socket base and double as a small rechargeable torch.

Are LED night lights safe to leave on all night?

Yes. An LED night light draws very little power and stays cool to the touch, so it is safe and cheap to leave on from dusk to dawn. Running costs are minimal, often just a few pence over a whole year. Models with a dusk-till-dawn or motion sensor cut that further by only running when the room is dark or someone passes. As with any electrical product, use it in line with the instructions, keep plug-in units clear of soft furnishings, and choose one rated for the room, with a damp-rated model for a bathroom or wet area.

What colour of night light is best for sleep?

A warm, amber-leaning light is the best choice for sleep. Warm tones carry less blue light, which is the part of the spectrum that signals the brain to stay alert, so a warm night light is far less likely to disturb sleep than a cool, bright one. Reds and ambers are gentlest of all and are often used in nurseries for night feeds. Keep the brightness low: a night light only needs to give enough glow to see by, not to light the room. Cool white night lights work better in hallways and utility spaces than in bedrooms.

Do you deliver night lights across the UK and worldwide?

Yes. We ship night lights across the UK with free standard delivery on orders over £99, and internationally including the US, EU, Australia and worldwide. Smaller plug-in night lights ship on standard services; international shipping is calculated at checkout based on destination and weight.
