- Real space for one: At 120cm across, the UK small double is 30cm wider than a UK single, which means a solo sleeper can starfish rather than lie to attention.
- Fits where a double won't: It's 15cm narrower than a UK double, and in a box room or loft conversion that 15cm can be the difference between walking round the bed and climbing over it.
- A sensible guest room choice: Couples can share it comfortably for a few weekends a year, so it suits a spare room or holiday let where nobody sleeps in it nightly.
- Standard 4ft sizing: The small double is an established UK size, which means frames and fitted sheets are easy to find rather than a specialist hunt.
- Modest room requirement: We suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m of floor space, a footprint many second bedrooms and studio flats can manage.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and have outgrown a single, but your room can't spare the width a full double demands. Or you're furnishing a guest room or let where couples stay occasionally and you want the largest bed the space sensibly takes. It also suits a teenager who needs more bed without losing all their floor.
Consider another size if...
You and a partner will sleep in it every night, in which case 120cm gets tight over time. We'd recommend the UK double instead, or the UK king if the room allows.

What are the dimensions of the Highgrove Lincoln Crib 5 in a UK small double?
This size measures 120 x 190cm, which is 4ft x 6ft 3in. The length matches a UK single and UK double, so it suits sleepers up to around six feet comfortably. Do measure your frame before ordering, as a 4ft mattress won't sit properly in a 4ft 6in bedstead.
Will a UK small double fit in a box room?
Usually, yes, and that's much of its appeal. We suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m so you can open the door, get dressed and reach both sides of the bed. Measure with wardrobes and radiators in mind, since it's usable floor space that matters, rather than the room's total footprint.
Is the small double Highgrove Lincoln big enough for two people?
For occasional nights, yes. At 120cm wide it gives a couple noticeably less room than a UK double, so it works well in a guest room or holiday let where pairs stay a few times a year. For a couple sharing every night, we'd point you to the UK double or UK king instead.
Should I choose the small double or the double in this mattress?
It mostly comes down to your room. The UK small double is 15cm narrower than the UK double, which can free up enough space for a chest of drawers or a clear walkway. If you sleep alone, the UK small double is generous; if you share nightly, the UK double is the safer choice.
