- 15cm wider than a UK double: That extra width goes straight into personal space, which means fewer elbows and less waking each other when one of you turns over.
- Length for taller sleepers: At 200cm long, it gives anyone approaching 6ft room to stretch out without their feet hanging off the end.
- 75cm each for couples: Two people sharing get 75cm apiece, close to a single bed's worth of space per person, which matters if you sleep on different schedules.
- Fits most main bedrooms: We suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, which most UK master bedrooms can manage, unlike the roomier demands of a UK super king.
- Standard bedding, easy to buy: King sheets and a 230 x 220cm king duvet are stocked everywhere, so dressing the bed is straightforward from day one.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double no longer feels big enough, especially if one of you gets up hours before the other and every movement carries. It also suits you if one partner is approaching 6ft, since the 200cm length is the real upgrade over a double. A dog who claims a corner most nights is another good reason for the extra width.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum, or you sleep alone and the width would go unused. The UK double would suit a tighter room better, and a solo sleeper may prefer the UK single or UK small double.

How big is the Highgrove Lincoln Crib 5 in a UK king?
The UK king version measures 150 x 200cm, which is 5ft x 6ft 6in. That's 15cm wider than the UK double of this mattress, and it's also longer, which helps taller sleepers. For two people sharing, it works out at 75cm each.
Is the UK king Highgrove Lincoln worth it for couples over the UK double?
For most couples, yes. The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double, and that difference is felt every night, particularly if one of you is a restless sleeper or you keep different hours. If your room comfortably clears our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum, the UK king is the more livable choice.
What room size do I need for a king size Highgrove Lincoln?
We suggest allowing at least 2.7m x 2.9m, with 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable once wardrobes and bedside tables are in. New build master bedrooms can be tighter than they first appear, so measure with furniture in place. If the room falls short, we'd recommend the UK double instead.
Where can I buy the UK king version of this mattress?
Compare the retailers listed on this page; the prices shown here are updated as retailers change them. Highgrove publishes limited specification detail for this model, so it's sensible to confirm firmness and construction with the retailer before ordering the UK king.
What bedding fits the UK king Lincoln Crib 5?
Standard UK king bedding: king fitted sheets sized for 150 x 200cm and a 230 x 220cm king duvet. Both are widely stocked in the UK, so you shouldn't need to buy anything specialist. Bedding for the UK super king will be too large, so check labels carefully.
