Choose this if you want a firm mattress built from natural materials rather than foam. The fillings are fully traceable, with wool, hemp and flax grown on the brand's own farm, and the wool-blend cover is fire retardant without chemical treatments, which means fewer synthetics next to your skin. The spring system is where the money goes: 2,500 micro springs sit over the Advanced Cortec pocket springs, so you get pressure relief without losing the firm support. Furniture Village lists a 20-year guarantee, notably longer than most brands offer, though that's the retailer's stated term. It comes in four sizes, from UK Single to Super King, but there's no standard Double.
Key Features & what's inside
- Cover. A wool-blend cover woven in-house, fire retardant without chemical treatments. That means natural flame resistance rather than sprayed-on chemistry.
- Fillings. Responsibly sourced, fully traceable British wool, hemp and flax grown on the Harrison Spinks farm, alongside soft, breathable cotton. Natural fibres like these help regulate temperature, which matters if you tend to sleep warm.
- Micro springs. A layer of 2,500 high-density micro springs, which means the surface can contour to your shoulders and hips even though the overall feel is firm. It's cushioning without softness, in effect.
- Pocket springs. The award-winning Advanced Cortec pocket spring system uses a spring-within-a-spring design for dynamic support. In practice, the mattress responds differently to lighter and heavier pressure, adapting as you move.

Who's it NOT for?
This is a genuinely firm mattress, so lightweight side sleepers may find it too unyielding at the shoulder and hip. It's also a significant spend at £1,799 upwards, and there's no standard UK Double size, only Single, Small Double, King and Super King. If you prefer a sink-in, cradling feel, look elsewhere.

How firm is the Harrison Spinks Pure Splendour Firm mattress?
It's rated firm in both the brand and retailer listings. The 2,500 micro springs add some surface cushioning, but the underlying feel is solid, best suited to back and front sleepers or anyone who prefers a supportive, no-sink surface.
What is the Harrison Spinks Pure Splendour Firm mattress made of?
Natural materials throughout: British wool, hemp and flax grown on the Harrison Spinks farm, plus cotton, under a wool and viscose blend cover woven in-house. Support comes from the Advanced Cortec pocket spring system topped with a micro spring layer. It's 29cm deep.
How many springs does the Pure Splendour Firm mattress have?
The Furniture Village listing states 11,000 springs, though this figure applies to the king size specifically. That includes 2,500 micro springs plus the Advanced Cortec pocket springs. Spring counts for other sizes aren't stated on the listing.
Does the Harrison Spinks Pure Splendour Firm come with a guarantee?
Furniture Village lists a 20-year guarantee, which is longer than most brands offer. Bear in mind this is the retailer's stated term, so check the terms at your point of purchase before buying.
What sizes does the Pure Splendour Firm mattress come in?
Four sizes: UK Single, UK Small Double, UK King and UK Super King. There's no standard UK Double, which is a slightly odd gap. Prices range from £1,799 to £2,999 depending on the size you choose.
