Layer Details
- Cover. Made from sustainably sourced natural cotton with a natural fire retardancy treatment. That means no chemical fire treatments next to your skin.
- Comfort layer. Hand tufted with British wool to create a smooth, sturdier surface. Tufting anchors the fillings in place, which means fewer lumps developing over time.
- Comfort fillings. Finely filled with sustainably sourced cotton fibres. These are highly breathable and wick away moisture, which helps you stay dry and comfortable overnight.
- Solotex™ layer. A recycled synthetic fibre spun to create a breathable, durable filling. It adds a soft, plush layer above the springs.
- eOlus™ fibres. Made from recycled plastic bottles, these bring extra comfort while reducing landfill waste. A small sustainability win baked into the build.
- Support system. 1200 ReActive 6-turn pocket springs, which means each spring responds to your body independently for even support. Rod edging around the unit firms up the perimeter.

- Room to share without dominating the bedroom: At 135cm wide, the UK double fits comfortably in rooms where the UK king would leave little walking space around it.
- Edge support matters more at this width: With 67.5cm each for two people sharing, the rod edging means the person nearest the side gets proper support rather than a sagging perimeter.
- Cooler sharing: Two bodies raise the temperature under one duvet, and the wool and cotton fillings breathe better than foam, which helps a shared bed stay dry overnight.
- Bedside tables on both sides: In a typical UK bedroom, the UK double usually leaves space for a table each side, something the UK king often rules out.
- Easy to dress: Standard double sheets and a 200 x 200cm duvet are stocked everywhere, so replacing bedding is cheap and simple.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the classic couples' size in a room that couldn't take anything wider, or you sleep alone and like space to stretch out, perhaps with a dog or cat claiming one corner. It also suits a guest room that regularly hosts visiting couples, where a supportive medium firm feel keeps most guests comfortable.
Consider another size if...
You're a couple with a bedroom of 2.7m x 2.9m or more and you find 67.5cm each a squeeze. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it's 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double.

Is the Hypnos Burford Ortho Comfort double big enough for two adults?
It works for most couples. You get 67.5cm each for two people sharing, and the rod edging around the 1200 pocket springs keeps the sides firm, so neither of you loses usable width to a soft edge. If either of you is broad shouldered or a restless sleeper, the UK king gives noticeably more space.
What room size do I need for the Hypnos Burford Ortho Comfort in a UK double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That allows walking space on both sides and, in most rooms, a bedside table each side plus a wardrobe. In a first flat or second bedroom it should still leave room for drawers.
How heavy is the UK double to get upstairs?
Hypnos doesn't publish a weight for this mattress, and as a traditional 135 x 190cm pocket spring build it arrives full size rather than rolled. If you have a turning staircase in an older terrace or a tight new build landing, measure the route first and check the retailer's delivery guidance.
Should I get the double or the king in this mattress?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king, so the choice mostly comes down to your room. Couples with space for the UK king, at least 2.7m x 2.9m by our guidance, will appreciate the extra width. In a smaller room, the UK double keeps the bed from crowding everything else.
Is the double a good size for a guest room?
Yes, if your guests include couples. A UK single only sleeps one, and this mattress's medium firm feel suits a wide range of visitors, particularly back and stomach sleepers. Check the room measures at least 2.6m x 2.8m so the bed doesn't swallow the space. Solo guests get a generous 135cm to themselves.
