- Proper space for two: At 150cm across, this UK king is 15cm wider than the UK Double, which means each person gets 75cm each for two people sharing.
- Extra length for taller guests: The 200cm length gives anyone approaching six foot room to stretch out without their feet meeting the end of the bed.
- Pocket springs limit disturbance: The 1000 individually wrapped springs respond to each sleeper separately, which means an early riser is less likely to wake the person still asleep.
- Contract-ready in the size couples expect: For landlords, the UK king is the size guests and tenants increasingly look for in a master bedroom, and this mattress meets Crib 5 fire regulations for that use.
- Fits most master bedrooms: We suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, which most UK master bedrooms will manage, with 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable.
This size suits you if...
You're furnishing a rental, guest house or HMO master bedroom where couples will sleep, and you need a Crib 5 rated mattress rather than a domestic one. It also fits if your tenants or guests include taller sleepers, since the 200cm length adds real stretching room, or if you want the pocket springs to soften the disturbance of two people on different schedules.
Consider another size if...
Your rooms are on the smaller side, under our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum, or they'll mostly host single occupants. In that case we'd recommend the UK double instead, which frees up floor space while still sleeping two at a pinch.

Is the UK king Highgrove Stafford Crib 5 big enough for two guests?
Yes, comfortably. At 150 x 200cm it gives 75cm each for two people sharing, and the pocket springs respond to each sleeper individually, so a restless guest is less likely to disturb their partner. For rooms that regularly sleep couples, this is the size most landlords and guest house owners choose.
What room size do I need for a UK king mattress?
We suggest allowing at least 2.7m x 2.9m, with 3.2m x 3.2m feeling comfortable. That leaves walking space on both sides and room for wardrobes. Measure a furnished room rather than an empty one; a new build master can feel smaller than the floor plan suggests once storage goes in.
Should a landlord choose the UK king or the UK double of this mattress?
It depends on the room and the tenants. The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double and 10cm longer, so it suits master bedrooms let to couples, especially where one person is over six foot. For a second bedroom or a smaller master, the UK double leaves more usable floor space.
Does the UK king suit taller sleepers?
Yes, and length is often the real reason to size up. At 200cm, the UK king is longer than a UK double as well as wider, so anyone approaching six foot no longer sleeps diagonally or hangs off the end. If width is your only concern, the extra length comes as a welcome bonus.
How does the UK king compare with the UK super king for this mattress?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king but needs a smaller room, so it's the practical choice for most contract settings. The super king suits genuinely large master bedrooms. Both are available for this mattress; compare the retailers listed on this page for current pricing on each.
