Key benefits
- Proper space for two: At 75cm each for two people sharing, you can both turn over without negotiating, which matters when one of you gets up hours before the other.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: The 200cm length gives anyone approaching six foot room to stretch out without their feet hanging off the end.
- Pocket springs suit shared beds: Pocket springs respond independently across the surface, which means a partner shifting position on their side is less likely to travel across to yours.
- A step up without super king demands: The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double, a difference you feel nightly, without needing the floor space a UK super king asks for.
- Contract-grade build: This is a contract-specification mattress, the kind bought for guest houses and rentals, which points to a design intended to cope with regular use.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double has started to feel cramped, especially if one of you turns frequently or keeps different hours. It also fits if either partner is tall and the 200cm length is the real draw, or if a dog has quietly become a permanent third occupant and you need the width back.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested minimum of 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king. In that case we'd recommend the UK double instead, which keeps most of the sharing space in a smaller footprint.

FAQ's
What are the dimensions of the Highgrove Lincoln Crib 5 in a UK king?
The UK king measures 150 x 200cm, which is 5ft x 6ft 6in. That gives 75cm each for two people sharing. Highgrove doesn't publish a depth for this model, so check the retailer listing before ordering fitted sheets.
Is the UK king Highgrove Lincoln big enough for a couple?
Yes, for most couples. With 75cm each for two people sharing, you both get meaningfully more room than a double offers, and the pocket springs help keep movement on one side from disturbing the other. Broad-shouldered couples who spread out may still prefer the UK super king.
How much bigger is the UK king than the double?
The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double, and at 200cm long it is also longer than the double's 190cm. The width eases nightly jostling; the length is the quieter benefit, and often the deciding one for anyone tall.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
At 200cm, the UK king is one of the longer standard UK sizes, and for many taller sleepers the length is the real reason to move up from a double rather than the width. It shares that 200cm length with the UK super king.
Should I choose the UK king or the UK super king in this mattress?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king, so if your room comfortably exceeds our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum and you want maximum personal space, the UK super king is the stronger pick. For most couples upgrading from a double, the UK king is enough.
