As a bestselling size for small to medium-sized rooms, our 5ft Christmas trees are easy to assemble, decorate and store, while our realistic foliage ticks all the boxes. 

Why choose a 5ft Christmas tree?

At around 150cm tall, a 5ft Christmas tree hits a sweet spot between a smaller tree and a traditional full-size display. It's tall enough to make a feature of your Christmas decorating, but compact enough to lift, assemble and store without turning it into a Christmas workout.

That makes 5ft trees a popular choice for small and medium-sized living rooms, bedrooms, offices and family spaces, as well as anyone who fancies adding a second tree somewhere else in the house.

Get plenty of Christmas cheer without filling the room

The 5ft height gives you more to decorate than a 3ft or 4ft tree while leaving more room around it than a 6ft or larger tree.

It's a particularly handy size for small and medium-sized living rooms, flats, bedrooms and offices where you want a proper Christmas tree without rearranging the entire room to fit it in.

For something smaller, take a look at our 3ft Christmas trees and 4ft Christmas trees. Ready to go bigger? Explore our 6ft Christmas trees.

Give your favourite decorations plenty of room

Five feet gives you a generous number of branches to decorate, so there's plenty of space for baubles, lights, garlands and all those decorations you've collected over the years.

Layer your Christmas decorations through the branches, add your lights and finish things off with a tree topper. The result? A beautifully dressed tree without needing hundreds of decorations to make it look full.

Our Christmas tree decoration calculator provides guidance on how many decorations you'll need.

Pick realistic foliage for a tree that looks the part

Good artificial foliage makes all the difference. Our 5ft realistic Christmas trees feature natural-looking shapes and detailed branches for a convincing festive finish.

There's plenty of choice across the collection, including traditional, snowy, slim, half, fibre optic and other specialist styles, so you don't have to stick to the classic green Christmas tree.

Skip the light untangling with a pre-lit tree

Christmas decorating is much more fun when you aren't spending half an hour trying to work out which end of the lights you've picked up.

Our 5ft pre-lit Christmas trees have integrated LEDs already positioned through the branches, making it quicker to get your tree glowing.

Bring a little winter magic indoors

Snowy branches give a 5ft tree a wonderfully festive finish, particularly when paired with warm white lights, metallic baubles or traditional red decorations.

Our 5ft snowy Christmas trees include both unlit and pre-lit options, so you get to decide just how much decorating you want to do.

Keep the footprint under control

A 5ft tree doesn't need to come with a huge footprint. Slim and half-tree designs make it easier to fit a good-sized tree into rooms where floor space is precious.

Our 5ft slim Christmas trees work well in narrower spaces, while half Christmas trees sit neatly against a wall.

Find the Christmas tree size that suits your space

Choosing a tree size comes down to your room, available floor space and how much Christmas you want to squeeze in.

A 3ft Christmas tree suits particularly compact displays, while a 4ft Christmas tree gives you a little more height. A 5ft tree steps things up again, while a 6ft Christmas tree delivers the classic full-size look.

Should I choose a 5ft or 6ft Christmas tree?
