Layer Details
- Firm support in a compact footprint: At 90cm wide it leaves room for a desk and wardrobe in a child's or teen's bedroom while still giving a growing back a firm, level surface.
- A premium option for the spare room: Guests of most builds tend to get on with firm pocket springs, so it suits a spare room you want to feel considered rather than an afterthought.
- Pocket springs sized for one: The springs respond to a single sleeper's weight independently, which means support follows your shape rather than the whole surface tilting.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Single sheets and a 135 x 200cm duvet are the most widely stocked bedding of any size, useful when a teenager gets through sets quickly.
- Check the depth before a raised frame: Hypnos doesn't publish a depth for this mattress, so if it's destined for a bunk, cabin or mid sleeper, confirm the measurement with the retailer first.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a teenager or older child who has outgrown a softer children's mattress and sleeps mostly on their back or front, you want a firm, well-made mattress for a guest room or study that doubles as guest space, or you're a single adult in a compact room, perhaps a loft conversion where only a narrow footprint fits under the slope, and you know you prefer a firm feel.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who feels hemmed in by a 90cm width, or two of you will ever share the bed. The UK small double is 30cm wider at the same length, and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

Is the Hypnos Wool Origins 8 Firm in a UK single suitable for a child?
It can be, with a caveat. The firm pocket sprung support suits older children and teenagers, particularly back and front sleepers, and the 90 x 190cm footprint is the standard for UK children's beds. Very light children may find a firm surface a little unyielding, so it's a better fit from the teenage years onward.
Will the Hypnos Wool Origins 8 UK single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
The width and length match standard UK single frames, but raised frames usually have a maximum mattress depth for the safety rail to work, and Hypnos doesn't publish a depth for this model. Ask the retailer for the measurement and check it against your frame's limit before ordering.
How much space does a UK single need in the room?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which gives you room to walk alongside the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. That makes the UK single workable in box rooms, loft conversions with a narrow flat section, and children's rooms where the bed competes with toy storage and a desk.
Is this a good size for a spare room?
Yes, if the room does double duty. A single leaves space for a desk or storage, so an office can still take guests, and the firm feel suits occasional sleepers of most builds. If the room hosts couples, one of the larger sizes makes more sense; if it hosts two solo guests, two singles can work where the floor plan allows.
