Layer Details
Cover
A breathable Belgian damask fabric cover. It lets air move through the surface, which means less heat building up around you overnight.
Natural Silk Layer
A lightweight natural silk layer directly beneath the cover. Silk is a small component, but it adds a soft, smooth first impression when you lie down.
Cashmere
A rare filling that is softer and finer than wool, typically reserved for higher-end mattresses. It gives the comfort layer a gentle, plush quality without undermining the medium firm support.
Authentic Traceable British Wool
Wool from British Cheviot sheep, 100% traceable from farm to shop. It provides a natural bounce and helps regulate your temperature, keeping you warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
Pocket Springs
1,000 German-engineered pocket springs that adapt to your movements through the night. Because each spring works independently, support matches your weight distribution and you feel less of a partner's movement.

- The classic shared size: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double gives couples 67.5cm each for two people sharing, enough for most pairs who sleep reasonably close.
- Fits ordinary UK bedrooms: We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which leaves space for a wardrobe and drawers in a first flat or second bedroom.
- Springs that work for two: The 1,000 pocket springs move independently, which means less disturbance when your partner turns over in a bed this width.
- A cooler shared surface: Two bodies raise the temperature under one duvet, and the breathable wool and silk layers help move that heat away rather than trapping it.
- Easy to dress and replace: Double sheets and duvets are sold everywhere at every price point, useful if you're kitting out a whole home on a stretched budget.
This size suits you if...
You're a couple who sleep fairly close and want the traditional shared size rather than the biggest bed the room could take. Or you sleep alone, perhaps with a dog or cat claiming one corner, and want proper spreading room. It also suits a guest room that hosts visiting couples, since the medium firm feel works for most back sleepers passing through.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both like space, or one of you is tall, since the UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king. If your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m, we'd recommend the UK king instead.

Is the Highgrove Rowley Ortho 1000 in a UK double big enough for a couple?
For most couples, yes. The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two people sharing, and the 1,000 pocket springs respond to each sleeper's weight separately, so you feel your own support rather than your partner's movement. If either of you sprawls or you share with children in the mornings, a wider size is worth considering.
What room size do I need for the Highgrove Rowley Ortho 1000 double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That usually leaves room for bedside tables on both sides plus a wardrobe, which matters in a first flat or a second bedroom where the bed shares floor space with storage.
Should I buy the Highgrove Rowley Ortho 1000 in a UK double or a UK king?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king. If you share every night and either of you is a restless sleeper or over about six feet tall, the extra room helps. We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king, so measure first; in a smaller room the UK double leaves you space to actually walk around the bed.
Will the UK double version fit up a narrow staircase?
At 135 x 190cm and 33cm deep, it's a substantial mattress, and older terraces with turning stairs or tight new build landings can make delivery awkward. Highgrove doesn't publish handling or packaging details for this size, so check access with the retailer before you order, measuring your narrowest turn.
