Flaxby Natural Flaxmoor 2500 Mattress

Assessed from the specification published by dreams.co.uk, captured November 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.

The natural fillings are the main draw. Flax and wool are described as temperature-regulating and moisture-absorbing, which should help if you tend to overheat or want a breathable bed. Because it's made without glue, chemicals or foam, it suits you if you want a foam-free, natural build, and it can be recycled at the end of its life. Twenty or more bedmakers craft each one. The extra firm feel will suit you if you want very firm support, and most likely back and front sleepers, although side sleepers may find it too hard.

Back sleepers
The extra firm rating gives a flat, unyielding surface with very little give, which suits those who want firm, level support when lying on their back.

Front sleepers
A very firm comfort grade keeps the surface flat and stops the body sinking in, which is what many people who sleep on their front look for.

Warm sleepers
Flax and wool fillings are described as temperature-regulating and moisture-absorbing, which should keep the bed breathable if you tend to overheat at night.

Eco-conscious buyers
Made with Yorkshire-grown flax and British wool, without glue, chemicals or foam, it can also be recycled at the end of its life.

If you prefer sleeping on a soft or medium mattress, this might not be the best choice. It's rated extra firm, with a very firm comfort grade, so there's little give. Side sleepers and lighter sleepers who want cushioning around the shoulders and hips may find it uncomfortable. Flaxby doesn't publish a depth, which matters if you have a deep bed frame.

What is the Flaxby Natural Flaxmoor 2500 made of?

Is the Flaxby Natural Flaxmoor 2500 good for hot sleepers?

It may well be. The flax and wool fillings are described as naturally temperature-regulating and moisture-absorbing, and there's no foam. Individual experience still varies, so it's a reasonable bet rather than a guarantee.

Dreams offers a 100-night comfort trial on it. That's the retailer's own offer rather than Flaxby's, so check Dreams' terms before you buy.
