Assessed from the specification published by Furniture Village, captured September 2026, and from regular price comparison across our UK retail partners.
Choose the Baronet Superb if you want natural materials and a proper pocket spring feel. The horsehair filling wicks moisture and springs back over time, which means the mattress should stay breathable and keep its shape better than synthetic alternatives, while the wool and cotton layers add a soft, temperature-regulating surface. The Medium tension suits most average-weight sleepers in most positions. Yes, £2,249 for a double is a serious outlay, but Furniture Village backs it with its own 20-year structural guarantee, which is longer cover than most brands offer. You'll only find it in a UK Double through this listing, so if you need another size you may have to look elsewhere.
Key Features & what's inside
- Cover. A fine quality ticking encases the mattress. It's the surface layer you'll feel through your sheet.
- Fillings. Horsehair sits alongside bonded and blended British fleece wool and cotton. These natural fibres breathe well, which means less heat build-up overnight than you'd get from memory foam.
- Springs. Vanadium steel, six-turn pocket springs housed in calico pockets, with 1,326 of them in the king size. Each spring compresses independently, which means the mattress follows your shape rather than sagging as one piece.

Who's it NOT for?
If you like the slow-sinking hug of memory foam, this traditional sprung feel won't suit you. It's also a poor fit for anyone avoiding animal-derived materials, given the horsehair and wool. And at £2,249 for a double, budget-conscious buyers will find good pocket sprung options for far less.

How firm is the Vispring Baronet Superb?
This listing is the Medium tension, which suits most average-weight sleepers. The mattress is also made in Soft, Firm and Extra Firm tensions, so lighter or heavier sleepers can find a better match, although this particular listing is Medium only.
What is the Vispring Baronet Superb made of?
The fillings are horsehair, bonded British fleece wool and cotton, and blended British fleece wool and cotton, all wrapped in fine quality ticking. Support comes from six-turn vanadium steel pocket springs in calico pockets, a traditional construction that keeps each spring moving independently.
How many springs does the Baronet Superb have?
The Furniture Village listing states 1,326 pocket springs in the king size. A count for the double, the size sold in this listing, isn't specified, though smaller sizes of a mattress naturally contain fewer springs.
Does the Vispring Baronet Superb come with a guarantee?
Furniture Village offers its own 20-year structural guarantee on this mattress. That's the retailer's cover rather than a manufacturer promise, so if you buy elsewhere the terms may differ.
How deep is the Vispring Baronet Superb mattress?
It's 21cm deep, plus around 6cm of doming, the gentle rise created by the generous natural fillings. Standard deep fitted sheets should fit comfortably.
