Key benefits
- The classic shared footprint: At 135 x 190cm (4ft 6in x 6ft 3in), the UK double gives each of you 67.5cm, which means two can share without the bed taking over an ordinary bedroom.
- Space left for bedside tables: In a room around 3m x 3m, which we'd call the comfortable norm, you can usually keep a bedside table on each side and still reach the wardrobe.
- Springs that respond to each sleeper: Every pocket spring is wrapped separately and moves on its own, so the support shapes itself to each of your bodies instead of acting as one stiff panel.
- One firmness for both of you: The extra-firm rating covers the whole surface, so make sure your partner wants that hard, flat feel too, because there's no softer side.
- Bedding that's easy to find: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm duvet fit, and both are sold almost everywhere, which helps when you're kitting out a first flat on a stretched budget.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner who also likes an extra-firm, flat surface, and your bedroom is a typical UK size where a UK king would leave little floor space. It also fits if you're setting up a guest room for visiting couples.
Consider another size if...
One of you sprawls or is broad-shouldered, and your room has space to spare. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 7.5cm more each; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

FAQ's
Is the Dream Team Fakenham double big enough for two people?
For most couples, yes. The UK double gives you 67.5cm each, which is fine if you both sleep fairly still. If either of you likes to stretch out, the UK king adds 7.5cm per person, though it needs a larger room.
What size bedroom do I need for a Dream Team Fakenham double mattress?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m. That's tight but workable in a second bedroom. Around 3m x 3m is more comfortable, leaving room for bedside tables on both sides and drawers that open without hitting the bed frame.
Should I get the Fakenham in a UK double or a UK king?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king. If your room is under 2.7m x 2.9m, which is what we suggest for the UK king, the UK double is the sensible fit. With more space and a restless partner, size up.
Is the UK double Fakenham much wider than the small double?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double, and the two are the same length. That extra width matters when two adults share every night. For a single sleeper in a small room, the UK small double needs at least 2.4m x 2.8m.
What sheets fit the Fakenham UK double mattress?
Standard double fitted sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet fit. The mattress is 22cm deep, so check the pocket depth on fitted sheets before buying. Most standard ones will suit, but very shallow pockets can slip off the corners.
