Layer Details
- Fits compact rooms: At 90cm wide, it leaves floor space free in a child's room where the bed competes with toy storage and a desk.
- Grown-up build for a teen: Hand-tufting anchors the fillings so they settle less, which matters on a bed a teenager will use for years.
- Edge support in a narrow bed: Triple Edge Protection springs firm up the perimeter, useful on a 3ft mattress where you sleep closer to the edge by default.
- Guest ready: A medium firm pocket spring tension suits most visiting sleepers, a safe pick for a spare room that doubles as an office.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Standard single sheets and a 135 x 200cm single duvet fit, the most widely stocked and affordable bedding of any size.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child's or teenager's room where every centimetre counts, you're a single adult happy with the standard one-person width, or you're furnishing a spare room and want a quality pocket spring guests will actually sleep well on. It also suits two singles side by side where siblings share a room, since the 90cm width leaves a walkway between beds.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who spreads out at night, or the bed will occasionally sleep two. We'd recommend the UK small double instead: it's 30cm wider than the UK single, the same length, and needs a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m.

How big is the Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 in a UK single?
The UK single measures 90 x 190cm, or 3ft x 6ft 3in. We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which leaves room to walk round the bed and open drawers. That makes it a workable fit in box rooms, loft conversions with a narrow footprint and shared children's bedrooms.
Is a single Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 suitable for a child?
The UK single is the standard children's size, and the hand-tufted construction should hold up well through years of use. One caveat: this is a medium firm mattress, and a light child or teen who sleeps on their side may find it slightly solid at the shoulder and hip. Back sleepers will get on with it more easily.
Will the Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK bunk and mid sleeper frames. Depth is the thing to check: raised frames need the mattress to sit below the guard rail, and Hypnos doesn't publish a depth on the current listing, so confirm the measurement with the retailer before ordering for a bunk.
Is a UK single big enough for an adult?
For one average-sized adult, yes, 90cm is the standard one-person width and 190cm suits most heights. If you're tall, note the UK single is 10cm shorter than the UK king. The firm edge springs help here too, since a narrow bed means sleeping nearer the perimeter. Restless sleepers who spread out may prefer sizing up.
Where can I buy the Hypnos Cotton Origins 6 in a single?
Availability shifts, so the most reliable answer is the live comparison table on this page, where prices are updated as retailers change them. Compare the listings shown here rather than assuming coverage matches another size, since retailers don't always stock every size of the same mattress at once.
