Layer Details
- Fits compact rooms: At 90cm wide it leaves room for a desk or wardrobe, so a loft conversion or box room can still hold furniture you actually use.
- Pocket springs, one sleeper: The springs are individually wrapped, which means the mattress responds to your shape alone, with no compromise for a partner across a single's width.
- A firm feel for a firm brief: Genuinely firm mattresses in a UK single are scarce, so back and front sleepers wanting solid support in a one-person size have a real option here.
- Guest rooms that get used: In a spare room doubling as an office, a single keeps the floor workable while giving overnight guests something considerably better than a fold-out.
- Easy bedding: Standard single sheets and a 135 x 200cm duvet fit, and both are the cheapest and most widely stocked bedding of any UK size.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone, mostly on your back or front, and your room can spare at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space. It also fits an older teen who has settled into a firm preference, or a guest room where you'd rather give visitors a proper Hypnos than a budget stopgap. Compare the retailers listed on this page for the current price in this size.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who finds 90cm of width restrictive, or you tend to sprawl. The UK small double is 30cm wider at the same length, and we'd recommend it instead if you can allow at least 2.4m x 2.8m.

Is the Hypnos Wool Origins 10 in a UK single suitable for a child?
Physically it fits the standard children's bed size at 90 x 190cm, but we'd think twice. It sits at the premium end of the market, and the firm feel can push into the shoulder and hip of a lighter side sleeper, which describes many children. It makes more sense for an older, heavier teen or an adult.
What room size do I need for the Hypnos Wool Origins 10 UK single?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space. The mattress itself is 90 x 190cm, so even a box room or a loft conversion with a narrow usable strip under the slope will usually take it, with space left for a wardrobe or a desk alongside.
Is a UK single long enough for a tall teenager?
The UK single is 190cm long, which is fine for most people. If height is a genuine concern, the UK king is 10cm longer, though it is also 60cm wider and needs a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, so it's a big jump. For most tall teens the single length is workable.
Should I choose the UK single or size up to the UK small double?
If you're an adult sleeping alone every night and the room allows it, the extra width helps. The UK single is 30cm narrower than the UK small double, and the two are the same length; allow at least 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double. For teens, guests and tighter rooms, the single is the sensible pick.
Can two Hypnos Wool Origins 10 singles work in a shared or guest room?
Yes, and it's a common setup where one double won't suit. Two singles at 90cm wide each need a walkway between them, so measure carefully before committing. Each sleeper gets independent pocket spring support, and single bedding is cheap and easy to find, which helps when you're dressing two beds.
