The Vispring Baronet Superb Medium measures 21cm deep, with an additional 6cm of doming from the generous fillings. This listing, from Furniture Village, is the Medium tension, though the model is made in Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm. It's listed in a UK Double and sits firmly in the luxury bracket, but you're paying for hand-quality materials rather than foam or synthetics. Vanadium steel springs sit in calico pockets, a traditional construction that lets each spring move independently, which means you feel supported where you press down rather than tipped towards a partner.

Why should you choose this mattress?
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, it's a serious outlay for a double, 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 & layer details
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.

Best suited for?
Warm sleepers
Horsehair, wool and cotton fillings breathe well, which means less heat build-up overnight than you would get from memory foam.
Couples
Each pocket spring compresses independently, which means you feel supported where you press down rather than being tipped towards your partner.
Combination sleepers
The Medium tension suits most average-weight sleepers in most positions, so changing posture through the night should still feel comfortable and supported.
Eco-conscious buyers
Natural fillings of British fleece wool, cotton and horsehair replace foam and synthetics, giving a hand-quality build with a traditional pocket spring feel.
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 given the starting price, budget-conscious buyers will find good pocket sprung options for far less.
Save on an earlier or ex-display model
Some retailers still sell the earlier version of this mattress, or ex-display and returned stock at a lower price. These are the sizes where it costs less than the current model's best price.

FAQ's
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.
