Silentnight has found that British couples are spending the majority of their time in the bedroom- we take a look at why this is the room of choice for post work stress relief.

It's comfortable!

It's comfortable!

It's a special place- It's a room in which to unwind, relax and enjoy some time together after a long day of being apart where no one will disturb you.

Extra sleep- There's nothing like an early night with your partner. Sometimes curling up together at an early hour to have a long and sound sleep is the best tonic.

Health and wellbeing benefits- Partners need to look after themselves to be able to care for their loved one. Having a good rest each night gives couples the energy they need to be able to support one another emotionally and physically.

Watch TV- Watching your favourite show in bed with your significant other is far better than the couch. All you need to do is flick it off and turn over once it's done- the lazy way to watch TV.

Breakfast in bed- Usually reserved for special occasions- eating your breakfast in bed with a newspaper or your favourite morning show is the kindest way to start your weekends with your loved one.

Conversation- Just the two of you and a bed is all you need as the setting for a really good chin-wag.

It's the only room that's complete- Many couples decorate their bedrooms first when they move in to a new place so they have a place that doesn't create a mental list of jobs to be done.

It brings back memories- Most children enjoy playing in their rooms and as you get older- the child's toys transform into adult toys, which grown-ups like to play with equally as much.

Online shopping- This can be the place where you decide what you next joint purchase will be and so you can browse together before committing.

It's comfortable- You have guaranteed comfort in your bedroom, with plenty of pillows and the warmth of lying beneath your duvet cover, it's spa-like.
