If you're lucky enough to have the space, and you're serious about finding the perfect napping spot, a corner sofa is a real game changer. The larger designs allow you to fully stretch out, and thanks to their roomy nature, you can comfortably entertain even more friends and family.

Corner sofas come in all styles too, so you can find a suitable fit for your interior. Whether you're looking for a statement corner sofa to brighten up your space, or a soft and squidgy design to collapse onto at the end of a long day, we've got you covered in our round-up.

For budget-friendly corner sofas that don't scrimp on style, browse the best cheap corner sofas.

What's the difference between a corner sofa and a chaise sofa?

While both L shapes, corner sofas tend to offer back support right the way around, so imagine two sofas stuck together. A chaise sofa on the other hand still allows you to stretch out, but without the back support, almost like a sofa with a chaise longue, or ottoman, attached. Chaise sofas are more suitable for compact spaces as you can often detach the ottoman part to suit your space.

Chaise sofas can also work in the centre of a room, unlike a corner sofa which requires the whole corner of a room.

Before investing, make sure to check you've got the right side (left or right) of corner sofa, as getting it wrong can be a real headache!

Best corner sofas for 2024

Honeypot Faux Leather Corner Sofa

Honeypot faux leather corner sofa

Sofa dimensions: 90 x 96 x 247 x 186cm

Ideal for a cosy, modern farmhouse feel, this faux leather corner sofa offers a welcoming, yet smart look. The tan colour is a classic look that'll match an array of colourful cushions, and the soft-to-touch cover should allow for a comfortable seat.

This is a right hand corner design, but this style is also available as a left hand corner sofa, armchair, footstool and two seater, so you can create your ideal seating setup. The seats are on the softer rather than firm side of the comfort level, so this is a design you can sink into.

Cherry Tree 3-Seater Corner Sofa

Grey chaise sofa

Sofa dimensions: 86 x 196 x 69 x 128cm

If you want the look of a corner sofa, but don't have the space, you can opt for a sofa with a detachable chaise. This three seater design from Amazon is well suited to a compact space, and with a part detachable chaise, you can decide whether you have a right, or left sided corner sofa to suit your layout.

The straightforward grey design means this corner sofa will slot into any room, with whatever colour scheme. We love the homey feel, and at under £500, it's on the lower end of the price scale.

Jacob Velvet Reversible Small Corner Chaise Sofa

Green velvet chaise sofa

Sofa dimensions: 82 x 180 x 137 x 73cm

Another sweet corner chaise sofa to consider. This design is also reasonably priced, and we adore the richness of the green velvet that's sure to add a glamorous and luxurious touch to your space.

You can place the chaise at either end, and it's easy to assemble, just attach the beech wood legs.

This style is also available in a beautiful peacock, or navy colour - perfect for blue and teal colour schemes.

Swoon Denver Grand 4 Seater Corner Sofa

Swoon Denver Burnt Orange Corner Sofa

Sofa dimensions: 267 x 102 x 241 x 82cm

How irresistibly squishy and inviting is this beauty of a corner sofa? We're huge fans of Swoon's stunning statement sofa designs, and while they're a hefty purchase, they stand out in a crowded market for their on-trend, high-quality appearance.

With plenty of room for family members and guests (lots of perching potential when you've run out of seats), this corner sofa is ideal for keen hosts. We were drawn to the burnt orange - ideal against a cream wall for a warm, cosy feel - but there are lots of colours to choose from including a creamy chalk, blush pink and petrol blue.

U-shaped Corner Sofa

Grey U-shaped Sofa

Sofa dimensions: 95 x 335 x 190

If more than one of you wants to kick back, why not go one step further, and upgrade your L shape to a U shape? Ideal for a party, or of course a chilled-out movie night. As well as the silver design, you can opt for a navy colour which should be fairly forgiving of any spillages.

This U-shaped design from Furniture Village is built-to-last and features reversible back cushions to keep things nice and fresh, and offers a medium comfort level.

Not enough beds for your guests? Invest in a sofa bed and treat your visitors to a more comfortable sleep.

Jumbo Cord Corner Sofa

Jumbo cord black corner sofa

Sofa dimensions: 60 x 79 x 200 x 200cm

Grab a book, cup of tea, and sprawl out on this corner sofa from Wayfair for the most indulgent of Sunday afternoons. This is another large design, but it's available for a much more affordable price. We like the jumbo cord black cover - perfect if you're in need of a sofa that can handle the wear and tear of a household brimming with pets, children and visitors!

You'll need a fair amount of living room space for this design as the two sofa backs are equal in length, measuring 200cm.

Isaac Medium Corner Sofa

Isaac medium corner sofa

Sofa dimensions: 261cm (total length)

For a touch of laid back, coastal grandma charm, the Isaac corner sofa is a winner. The loose cover style sofas look particularly effective in linen and woven fabrics.

Cover this beautiful design with throws, striped cushions and surround with rattan for the most tranquil of spaces.

It's worth browsing Sofa.com's collection as there are a number of fabric and colour options available in this style. Choose between tweed, herringbone, family-friendly and velvet fabrics, and you'll find an array of unique colours such as rhubarb, barley and coastal.

Rochester Scatterback Chaise Sofa

Rochester Scatterback Chaise Sofa

Sofa dimensions: 162 x 91 x 241 x 102cm

This left-handed corner sofa from Marks and Spencer is another design that comes with an impressive number of fabric and colour options, so you can really make it your own. You can even choose between a bounceback, relaxed feather or relaxed fibre seat filling to suit your preference.

Featuring six scatter cushions and elegant curved arms, this sofa is a lovely mix of style and comfort.

Beatrice Fabric Chaise Sofa

Beatrice pink corner sofa

Sofa dimensions: 92 x 260 x 96 x 165cm

Blush pink sofas are an easy way to add colour to a room whilst still creating a light space. This left handed chaise design features chunky scroll arms, pocket sprung seats and removable cushions, so it ticks plenty of boxes on the comfort checklist.

Accessorise with bold mustards or oranges, or keep things neutral and calming with creams and beiges.
