Layer Details
- 90cm of width each: Two people sharing get 90cm each, so a partner who turns all night becomes much easier to ignore.
- 30cm wider than a UK king: That extra 30cm over the UK king is the difference between adequate and genuinely undisturbed sleep.
- Room for the whole household: If children pad through at 3am or a large dog claims a corner, this is the size where everyone still keeps a fair share.
- Rolled delivery suits this size: A flat super king is awkward on stairs and landings, so the Dawson arriving compressed in a box takes real strain out of delivery day.
- Fills a larger master properly: In a big or period bedroom where a UK king looks a little lost, the 6ft x 6ft 6in footprint sits in better proportion.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want as much distance from a restless partner as a standard UK size allows, your children or dog treat your bed as partly theirs, or you have a large master bedroom where a UK king would look undersized.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than the 3m x 2.9m we suggest as a minimum, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK king instead: 30cm narrower, easier to fit and dress, and still generous for two.

What are the dimensions of the Highgrove Dawson super king?
The Highgrove Dawson in a UK super king measures 180 x 200cm, or 6ft x 6ft 6in. That makes it 30cm wider than the UK king and the biggest size in the Dawson range, which runs from small single up to super king.
How much space do two people get on the Highgrove Dawson super king?
Two people sharing get 90cm each, the same width per person as a UK single. In practice that means a restless partner's movement is far less likely to reach you, and there's still space left when a child or pet joins in the night.
What size room do I need for the Highgrove Dawson super king?
We suggest a room of at least 3m x 2.9m, with around 3.5m x 3.2m feeling comfortable, so you can walk round the bed and open drawers without shuffling sideways. Measure door swing and any landing turns too, although the rolled box makes the delivery itself easier.
Should I buy the Highgrove Dawson in a UK king or super king?
The UK super king is 30cm wider than the UK king. If your partner is restless, or children and pets regularly share the bed, that width matters more than any comfort layer. If your room is tight or you rarely feel crowded, the UK king will serve you well.
Does the Highgrove Dawson super king come rolled in a box?
Yes. The Dawson is a rolled mattress, which matters most at this size: a rigid 180cm-wide mattress is a struggle on stairs, while a compressed box is manageable. Once unrolled it expands to the full 180 x 200cm, so check the bed frame and room fit before it goes up.
