Key benefits
- Space for two to share: Each of you gets 67.5cm of width, which suits couples who sleep fairly still and don't mind being within arm's reach of each other.
- Fits the rooms most of us have: We suggest a bedroom of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, so a typical main bedroom in a terrace or semi should still leave room to move around.
- Room for bedside tables: Closer to 3m x 3m, you can usually fit a small table on each side, so neither of you has to reach across the other for a lamp.
- A firm base for both of you: The firm open springs sit under a memory foam layer, which means a supportive surface that should suit two back sleepers sharing one bed.
- The biggest Billingham available: Dreams doesn't make the Billingham in a UK king or UK super king, so if you want this firm spring feel at full couples' width, the UK double is it.
This size suits you if...
You share a bed with a partner in a standard-sized bedroom and want a firm, traditional spring feel, or you're setting up a guest room where visiting couples will stay, or you sleep alone but like plenty of space to stretch out, with a dog or cat taking over the foot of the bed.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than 2.6m x 2.8m, or the bed must share space with a wardrobe and drawers. We'd recommend the UK small double instead, for which we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Is the Billingham UK double wide enough for a couple?
It gives each of you 67.5cm of width, which most couples find comfortable if neither of you sprawls. Two broad-shouldered sleepers, or one who sleeps like a starfish, may feel a little cramped. Because Dreams doesn't make the Billingham in a UK king, the UK double is the widest option this mattress offers.
What size bedroom do I need for a UK double Billingham mattress?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m. That lets the bed fit with some space to walk around it. If you'd like bedside tables on both sides as well as a chest of drawers, a room nearer 3m x 3m feels far less crowded.
Does the Dreams Workshop Billingham come in a king size?
No. Dreams makes the Billingham in a UK small single, UK single, UK small double and UK double, but not in a UK king or UK super king. If you need more than 67.5cm each, you'd have to look at a different mattress.
Billingham UK double or UK small double for two people?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double, and both are the same length. That extra width matters a great deal when two adults share every night. The UK small double makes more sense for a solo sleeper, or for a room smaller than our suggested 2.6m x 2.8m.
What bedding fits an 18cm deep UK double mattress?
Standard UK double fitted sheets suit the 135 x 190cm surface, and an 18cm depth is comfortably within the range of most everyday fitted sheets. A 200 x 200cm double duvet covers two sleepers. Double bedding is sold almost everywhere, which helps if you're furnishing a whole flat on a careful budget.
