Key benefits
- Leaves floor space free: We suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m for a UK single, which means room for a desk, drawers or a play area beside the bed.
- The standard size for bunks: The UK single is the default size for children's beds and bunk beds, so the Billingham should drop straight into most raised frames once you've checked the frame's depth limit against its 18cm.
- Firm support for growing bodies: The hourglass open springs give a firm feel, so a child or teenager gets steady support, with a memory foam layer to take the edge off.
- Two singles for guests: Two UK singles side by side mean two guests who'd rather not share each get a bed of their own, and you can push them apart or together to suit the room.
- Easy, everyday bedding: Standard single sheets and a single duvet (135 x 200cm) fit the UK single, and single bedding is the most widely stocked of any size.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child or teenager who prefers a firm bed, your bunk, cabin or mid sleeper frame takes a standard UK single, or your spare room needs to stay usable as an office between visits.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed with a partner or want space to spread out on your own. The UK small double would suit you better: it's 30cm wider, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.

FAQ's
Will the Billingham UK single fit a bunk bed or mid sleeper?
The UK single is the default size for bunk beds and children's beds, at 90 x 190cm. The Billingham is 18cm deep, so check the frame maker's maximum mattress depth before you buy. Raised frames set that limit to keep the guard rail high enough above the sleeping surface.
How much room do I need for a UK single mattress?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m for a UK single. That leaves space to walk around the bed and open drawers. In a loft conversion, a UK single's narrow footprint makes it easier to tuck the bed under the slope and keep the taller side of the room clear.
Is a UK single long enough for a tall teenager?
A UK single is 190cm long. Sizing up to the UK small double or UK double adds width but no extra length, as both are also 190cm. The Billingham isn't offered in a UK king, so a teenager who needs more length would need a different mattress.
What bedding fits the Billingham in a UK single?
Standard single fitted sheets and a single duvet (135 x 200cm) fit the UK single. The mattress is 18cm deep, so check the pocket depth on any fitted sheet covers that comfortably before you order a set.
Should I put two UK singles or one UK small double in a guest room?
Two UK singles let you host two friends or two children who'd rather not share. One UK small double is 30cm wider than a UK single and the same length, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it. It suits a room where one guest or a couple usually stays.
