Key benefits
- Real space for one: The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single, which means a solo sleeper can stretch out without moving up to a bigger frame.
- Fits compact rooms: At 15cm narrower than the UK double, it suits box rooms and small second bedrooms where every centimetre of floor space matters.
- Built for lettings: Contract specification means it is made for guest houses and holiday lets, and the small double is a practical size for a small second bedroom.
- Easy to dress: 4ft is a standard UK size, so small double fitted sheets are easy to find, and a standard double duvet works on top.
- Room to plan around: We suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m of floor space, which leaves walking room on both sides in most compact bedrooms.
This size suits you if...
You're furnishing a rental or holiday let with a small second bedroom, and want a contract-specification mattress that gives guests more room than a single without the footprint of a full double. It also fits if you sleep alone and want space to spread out, or you're kitting out a guest room where couples stay occasionally rather than every night.
Consider another size if...
Two of you will share the bed most nights, and 120cm of width will feel tight over time. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which is 15cm wider and the same length.

FAQ's
How big is the Highgrove Lincoln Crib 5 in a small double?
The UK small double measures 120 x 190cm, which is 4ft x 6ft 3in. That makes it 30cm wider than the UK single and 15cm narrower than the UK double, with all three sharing the same 190cm length. It is a middle ground: more room for one sleeper, less floor space taken than a double.
Is a small double a good size for a holiday let bedroom?
Often, yes. Occasional guests can share a UK small double comfortably for a few nights, and a solo guest gets plenty of room, so it suits second bedrooms where a full double would dominate. The Lincoln Crib 5 is a contract-specification model, the type made for exactly this kind of setting.
What room size do I need for a small double mattress?
We suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m. That gives you space to walk around the bed and open drawers or a door without squeezing past. If your room falls short of that, a UK single may be the more comfortable fit; if you have room to spare, a UK double becomes an option.
Can a couple sleep on the Lincoln Crib 5 small double every night?
We wouldn't suggest it for nightly sharing. At 120cm wide, each person gets noticeably less space than on a UK double, which is fine for occasional stays but wearing over months. If the bed will be shared most nights, size up to the UK double, or the UK king if the room allows.
Where can I buy the small double Lincoln Crib 5?
Availability varies by size, so the best approach is to compare the retailers listed on this page, where prices are updated as retailers change them. Stock for contract-specification models can move differently from mainstream ranges, so if the UK small double shows as available, it is worth checking the retailer's page promptly.
