Sleep stories for a mind that won't switch off. Slow, warm, and told over the sound of the sea from a small village on the Spanish coast. No ads. No jolts. Nothing to keep up with. If your thoughts start racing the moment your head hits the pillow, this is a quiet place to land. Every episode is a calm bedtime story written to ease anxiety, quiet an overthinking mind, and help you fall asleep — a steady voice, waves breaking below the lighthouse, and a place where nothing is ever in a hurry. The stories are told by the lighthouse keeper, who watches over the village from the point and has taken to noticing the life of its smallest resident: Prince Freddie, a corgi in a flat gold crown, who has one job — to notice things, and to let them be. Fishermen, a clockmaker, a seagull parliament, the tide. Nobody is in danger. Nothing needs fixing. Made for tired, busy, anxious minds. No moral at the end, nothing that asks anything of you. If you drift off before the last line, the story has done its job. A sleep story every week, and two-hour compilations for the whole night. Follow so you never miss a goodnight. The written stories live at stories.princefreddie.com. Longer tellings, ad-free, with the sea running on after the story ends: The Settle Premium — 7-day free trial at settle.princefreddie.com. Press play, and let the day settle.

    The Crown, Night 31 | A Sleep Story for Anxiety

    A calm bedtime story for grown-ups, about a small piece of driftwood with a crown carved into it, carried in on the morning tide. Prince Freddie takes it to the fountain, and Marisol tells him the limestone knew that shape before it knew his. Looking down at his reflection in the still water, he sees his own crown properly for the first time: gold gone soft, a piece of sea glass worn frosted and smooth, nothing mined, nothing forged, nothing done in a hurry. A slow story about being recognised rather than made, and about why a thing chosen for you never feels heavy. Prince Freddie is a small dog in a flat gold crown who lives in a sleepy village on the Spanish coast, where the days are warm, the sea is always close, and nothing is ever in a hurry. These are unhurried sleep stories for grown-ups, written to quiet a busy mind and soften the end of the day. You are not meant to reach the end. How to listen: lie down, dim the light, and let the words do the walking. If you drift off before the last line, the story has done its job.

    Captain Coral's Favour, Night 30 | A Sleep Story for an Overthinking Mind

    A calm bedtime story for when you cannot turn your brain off at night, about a debt being settled at low tide. Captain Coral surfaces with an old shell, from further down than he usually goes, that holds the sound of this coast as it was before the lighthouse had its current lamp. Prince Freddie holds it to his ear for five seconds and hears a wave approach, break, and draw back through the wet sand. Then he sets it on the ledge above his bed and listens to the same sea doing the same thing outside. A story about how long the ordinary has been going on without you.

    Horatio's Mosaic, Night 29 | A Bedtime Story for Grown Ups, No Ads

    A calm bedtime story for grown-ups, about an old turtle making a picture on a rock from what the beach has given him. Horatio knows what it is before it is done. Prince Freddie spends the afternoon fetching the exact piece of sea glass, the driftwood of the right weight, the pale spiral shell that goes right of centre. When it is finished he still cannot tell what it is from where he is standing, and has the feeling that from above it would be perfectly clear. A slow, patient story about work that does not need you to see the result.

    The Day the Colours Got Mixed Up, Night 28 | A Sleep Story for an Overthinking Mind

    A calm bedtime story for when you cannot stop overthinking at night, about a morning where the sand is the colour of the sea and the sea is the colour of sand. A young spirit has dropped her vials and the colours have tangled. Prince Freddie helps her put them back one by one, the white walls, the lavender garden, the lighthouse with its red band. Then they reach the sea, which is blue, and green when the wind comes from the west, and silver at dawn, and will not agree to be one colour. A gentle story about the things that are not supposed to be fixed.

    The Full Moon Shift, Night 27 | A Sleep Story for Anxiety

    A calm bedtime story for anxiety at night, about keeping a promise made months ago in an empty lighthouse. On the full moon Prince Freddie climbs the cliff path and sits at the base of the wall to keep watch. Far out, further than the fishing boats, a light is taking its time toward the harbour. He faces it through the whole cold night, thinking companionable thoughts about deep water and reasonable wind, until at five in the morning it comes in between the breakwaters and the morning swallows it. A story about holding something steady until it arrives safely.

    The Secret Library Under the Sand, Night 26 | A Sleep Story for an Overthinking Mind

    A calm bedtime story for a mind that will not shut off at night, about a dune that gives way underfoot and the room beneath it. Prince Freddie falls through the ceiling of a library holding everything the sea has ever carried to this shore, catalogued on hand-lettered cards by Francisco, an octopus in spectacles with eight arms all doing something useful. There are bottles and charts and a great many boots. There is a card for a pearl that is no longer there. A slow, absorbing story about things being kept, things being only remembered, and how good it feels when someone else is doing the sorting. Prince Freddie is a small dog in a flat gold crown who lives in a sleepy village on the Spanish coast, where the days are warm, the sea is always close, and nothing is ever in a hurry.

    The Cloud That Was Afraid of Heights, Night 25 | A Sleep Story for Anxiety

    A calm bedtime story for an anxious mind at night, about a young cloud who has landed on the sea and will not get up again. It is her first morning, she is supposed to be high above the water where clouds live and work, and she has decided against it. Prince Freddie wades in to his knees, sits down facing her, and is quite good at waiting. Then Nimbus Junior comes down in a thoughtful spiral with a story about a first December storm and no useful advice whatsoever. A slow, kind story about fear and first times not being the same thing, and about the morning happening anyway. Prince Freddie is a small dog in a flat gold crown who lives in a sleepy village on the Spanish coast, where the days are warm, the sea is always close, and nothing is ever in a hurry.

    The Clock That Ran Backwards, Night 24 | A Sleep Story to Help You Fall Asleep

    A calm bedtime story for when you wake in the night and can't get back to sleep, set in a little clock shop above the harbour at siesta hour. A small brass clock has been left outside Tiempo Honesto before the shutters went up, with no name and no note, ticking steadily and perfectly backwards. Señor Tiempo checks it over and finds nothing wrong with it at all, only a maker who meant it. Prince Freddie sits beside the workbench through a long golden afternoon while the hands move the other way. A slow, warm story about something being very good and very strange, and not needing to explain itself. Prince Freddie is a small dog in a flat gold crown who lives in a sleepy village on the Spanish coast, where the days are warm, the sea is always close, and nothing is ever in a hurry.
