Layer Details
- 90cm each for two sharers: Two people sharing get 90cm each, which means a restless partner's turning happens far enough away that you're much less likely to feel it.
- 30cm wider than a UK king: The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, and at this size that extra strip is what keeps everyone comfortable when a child wanders in at 3am.
- Room for the whole household: If a large dog or a small visitor treats your bed as theirs, the 180cm width means their share doesn't have to come out of yours.
- The top of this model's range: This is the largest of the six sizes the Highgrove Bristol Ortho comes in, so it suits buyers kitting out a large master where a UK king would look undersized.
- Access checks matter more here: A 180 x 200cm mattress is awkward on tight landings and around door swings, so measure your route upstairs before ordering.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the most space this model comes in, a partner, child or pet regularly disturbs your sleep and distance would fix more than any comfort layer could, or you have a large master bedroom of at least 3m x 2.9m where a smaller size would look lost.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is under our suggested 3m x 2.9m minimum, or your stairs and landing can't take a 180cm-wide mattress. The UK king of this same mattress would suit you better, giving up 30cm of width for a much easier fit.

How big is the Highgrove Bristol Ortho in a UK super king?
It measures 180 x 200cm, which is 6ft x 6ft 6in. That's the same width as two UK singles side by side, and it's the largest of the six sizes this Highgrove model is made in.
Is a super king worth it for couples on this mattress?
If disturbance is your problem, yes. Two people sharing get 90cm each, and across any mattress that distance does more for a light sleeper than construction differences can. Since Highgrove publishes little detail on this model's build, the size is arguably the most dependable part of what you're buying.
What room size do I need for this super king mattress?
We suggest at least 3m x 2.9m, with around 3.5m x 3.2m feeling comfortable once you add bedside tables on both sides and space to walk around. In a loft conversion, the sloping ceiling usually decides which wall the bed can take, so check head height too.
How much wider is the super king than the UK king version?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king, and 45cm wider than the UK double. Length also increases from the double: the super king runs 200cm rather than 190cm, which taller sleepers will feel.
