Key benefits
- Room to sprawl on your own: At 30cm wider than the UK single, it lets a solo sleeper stretch out or change position without ending up near the edge.
- A little more floor to spare: Being 15cm narrower than the UK double means slightly more clearance beside the bed, which helps in a box room or a small second bedroom.
- Familiar length: It shares its 190cm length with the UK single and UK double, so swapping it into an existing room rarely means rethinking the layout.
- Firm support for one sleeper: The firm comfort grade suits a solo back sleeper, although a lighter side sleeper may find the surface a little unyielding.
- Easy to dress: Small double fitted sheets are standard UK stock and a regular double duvet covers it, so finding bedding is straightforward.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone but like room to spread out, your bedroom is too tight for a UK double, or you're furnishing a guest room where a couple stays now and then rather than every night.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night and want room to move without disturbing each other. We'd recommend the UK double instead, and suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

FAQ's
What room size do I need for a UK small double Flaxby Woolcroft 3500?
We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m. That leaves space to walk round the bed and open a wardrobe in a small bedroom. In a loft conversion with a sloping ceiling, measure the floor where you can actually stand, because the usable space beside the bed is often smaller than the room's footprint.
Can two people share a Flaxby Woolcroft 3500 small double?
For occasional stays, yes. A visiting couple will manage a weekend on it, and the firm pocket springs keep the surface steady. For every night, 120cm is tight for two adults, and the UK double adds 15cm of width at the same length.
Is a UK small double Woolcroft 3500 big enough for a teenager?
Usually, yes. A teenager who has outgrown a single gains 30cm of width without the bed getting any longer, since the UK small double matches the UK single's length. The firm feel suits most back sleepers, although a light side sleeper may find it a little unyielding.
Small double or double: which Flaxby Woolcroft 3500 should I buy?
If you sleep alone, the UK small double gives plenty of room and keeps 15cm more floor free beside the bed. If you share nightly, choose the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each for two sharing and needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
What bedding fits a Flaxby Woolcroft 3500 in a UK small double?
Small double (4ft) fitted sheets, with a standard double duvet on top. The mattress is 33cm deep, so check the fitted sheet's pocket depth before buying, as some sheets are cut for shallower mattresses and slip off the corners.
