What Sizes Do Round Trampolines Come In?

Ready to shop for trampolines but feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the size options? Whether you've got a cosy city garden or sprawling countryside space, we'll help you find the perfect round trampoline to match. Let's bounce into everything you need to know about trampoline sizes.
Safety First:

Always remember the golden rule - one jumper at a time ensures safe bouncing for everyone. It's a bit like queuing for the bus - much safer when we take turns!

Common Round Trampoline Sizes

Small Round Trampolines (8-10 feet)

Perfect for Compact Gardens

Perfect for children aged 6 and above, these space-saving models are ideal for typical UK town gardens while providing plenty of bouncing fun in a compact package. The 8ft version needs roughly the same space as a small car, while the 10ft requires just a tad more room.

Space Tip: For these sizes, allow at least 2 metres of clear space around all sides - about the length of a garden gate.

Medium Round Trampolines (12 feet)

The Family Favourite

The 12ft trampoline is our bestseller, and for good reason. It hits the sweet spot between size and practicality for most British gardens. You'll need a space roughly 6m x 6m to accommodate it safely, but the extra bouncing area makes it well worth considering if you've got the room.

Large Round Trampolines (14 feet and above)

For Spacious Settings

These grand designs are perfect if you've got the garden space of a country cottage. They offer maximum bouncing area and are particularly popular with older children who enjoy practicing their techniques.

Trampoline Size Total Space Needed Best For Typical Age Range
8ft 4m x 4m Small gardens, ages 6+ 6-10 years
10ft 5m x 5m Medium gardens, growing families 6-12 years
12ft 6m x 6m Average UK gardens, all ages 6+ years
14ft+ 7m x 7m+ Large gardens, teenagers 8+ years

Choosing Your Perfect Size

Garden Measurements Matter

Before you get carried away with dreams of backflips (safely done, of course!), grab your tape measure. You'll need to consider not just the trampoline's footprint but also that all-important safety perimeter. Don't forget to account for things like garden furniture, washing lines, and those prized rose bushes!

Measuring Tip: Not sure about measuring? Take a photo of your garden and send it to us - we'll help you work out what size would fit best.

Think About Your Users

While bigger might seem better, many children (aged 6+) often feel more confident starting with smaller trampolines. Consider who'll be using it most when making your choice. Remember, every size in our collection comes with the same high-quality construction and safety features.
