Assessed from Vispring's published specification for this mattress, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
Choose the Baronet Superb if you want traditional craftsmanship and entirely natural fillings, with no synthetic foam in sight. Horsehair and wool are naturally breathable, which means they wick moisture away and help regulate temperature. If you're a hot sleeper, that matters more than any cooling gimmick. The hand-nested calico springs are sewn together by hand rather than glued, a slower method that tends to last. The choice of four spring tensions means couples of different weights, or anyone unsure about firmness, can get a feel matched to them. Yes, the price is high, but you're paying for hand tufting, natural materials and a construction method few makers still use.
Key Features & what's inside
- Upholstery - Horsehair and wool blend. The fillings are entirely natural: horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, plus a blended British fleece wool and cotton layer, all encased in high-quality ticking. It's hand-tufted with felt washers, which keeps the fillings anchored so they don't shift or clump over time.
- Spring system. A single layer of 1,326 vanadium steel pocket springs, hand-nested in calico pockets. Because each spring sits in its own fabric pocket and moves independently, you get support that follows your shape and less disturbance from a partner moving at night.

Who's it NOT for?
This is a firm mattress at heart, so lightweight side sleepers may find the standard tension a little unforgiving, although softer spring options exist. Vegans should look elsewhere given the horsehair and wool. And if your budget sits below £2,199, there are perfectly good pocket sprung options for less.

How firm is the Vispring Baronet Superb?
Vispring describes it as a firm mattress, although spring tensions are available in Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm. That flexibility means you can choose a feel to suit your weight and sleeping position rather than accepting one fixed firmness.
What is the Vispring Baronet Superb made of?
The fillings are entirely natural: horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, hand-tufted with felt washers. Underneath sits a hand-nested calico pocket spring unit with 1,326 vanadium steel springs. There's no synthetic foam in the construction.
How deep is the Vispring Baronet Superb mattress?
The base depth is 21cm, with an additional 6cm of doming on top from the natural fillings, give or take 2cm. That doming is normal for traditionally upholstered mattresses and settles gradually with use.
What sizes does the Vispring Baronet Superb come in?
It's available in UK Double, UK King and UK Super King, with prices ranging from £2,199 to £3,269 depending on the size you choose.
Does the Vispring Baronet Superb come with a trial period or guarantee?
Vispring's product page doesn't mention a trial period, guarantee or delivery details. Check with the retailer you're buying from before ordering, as terms can differ between stockists.
