Key benefits
- Room to stretch out on your own: It's 30cm wider than the UK single, which means you can lie with an arm flung out or turn over without meeting the edge.
- Leaves space for the door: At 15cm narrower than the UK double, it can leave enough floor for a bedroom door to open fully in a box room where a 4ft 6in frame would block it.
- Suits a loft conversion: We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m, which works for many attic bedrooms where a sloping ceiling leaves little standing room beside a wider bed.
- Natural fill for a small, warm room: Wool, hemp and flax wick moisture, which should help if a compact upstairs bedroom tends to leave you waking up warm or clammy.
- Straightforward bedding: 4ft is a standard UK width, so small double fitted sheets are easy to find, and an ordinary double duvet hangs comfortably over both sides.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and feel cramped on a single, your bedroom is a box room or loft conversion where a wider bed would crowd the door, 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, because the UK small double gets tight for two adults. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for that room.

FAQ's
Is a small double big enough for two adults every night?
For a weekend guest stay, a UK small double usually works fine. Nightly, most couples find it tight, especially if one of you moves around. The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two sharing and is the same length, so it's the better choice if you're sleeping together every night.
Will a Flaxby Woolcroft Loft 4500 small double fit in a box room?
We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double. Before ordering, measure where the door swings and where any wardrobe opens, since those decide whether the room still feels usable. If your room is under that, the UK single needs at least 2.1m x 2.8m.
Small double or single mattress for a teenager?
If your teenager has outgrown a single, the UK small double is 30cm wider at the same length, so they gain sideways room without the bed reaching further into the room. It needs a little more floor: we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m, against 2.1m x 2.8m for the UK single.
Is a UK small double long enough for a tall person?
The UK small double is 190cm long, the same as the UK single and UK double. If you're tall and your feet already reach the end of a standard bed, the UK king is 10cm longer, though we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m of room for it.
What bedding fits a small double Flaxby mattress?
Look for fitted sheets labelled small double or 4ft, as a standard double sheet will be loose across the width. A regular double duvet works well on top. Flaxby doesn't publish a depth for this mattress, so check the pocket depth on fitted sheets suits a pillow top before buying.
