Layer Details
- Room to sleep apart, together: At 75cm each for two people sharing, you can both change position without negotiating for space, a difference you notice from the first night.
- Less disturbance across the gap: Pocket springs compress individually, which means an alarm going off hours before yours causes less rocking on your side of the bed.
- Length for taller sleepers: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK Double at 5ft x 6ft 6in, so feet stop hanging over the end.
- Natural materials at a shared size: The sustainable cotton cover and absence of fire-retardant chemicals apply here as in every size, reassuring when two of you sleep on it nightly.
- Fits a typical master bedroom: We suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, which most UK master bedrooms can manage with wardrobes in place.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double now feels like a compromise, especially if one of you gets up hours before the other. Or one of you is tall enough that a standard-length mattress leaves feet at the edge, since the extra 10cm of length here solves that. It also suits couples who want more space without giving over the whole room to the bed.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is under our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m minimum, or you sleep alone and the width would go unused. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is the Hypnos Wool Origins 8 UK king big enough for a couple?
Yes, comfortably for most. The UK king measures 150 x 200cm, giving 75cm each for two people sharing, and the pocket spring construction means one person's movement transfers less to the other side. If one of you sprawls, or a dog routinely claims a corner, the UK super king adds another 30cm of width.
Will a UK king Hypnos Wool Origins 8 fit in my bedroom?
Allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m of floor space for a UK king, and that's our guidance rather than the manufacturer's. New build master bedrooms often look generous until fitted wardrobes go in, so measure the clear floor area first. If the room is tighter, the UK double needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
Is the Hypnos Wool Origins 8 king long enough for tall sleepers?
At 200cm, the UK king is 10cm longer than the UK Double, which matters once someone approaches six foot. That extra length is often the real upgrade for taller couples, more so than the width. Only the UK super king matches it for length; the smaller sizes are all 190cm.
Does a king size reduce partner disturbance on this mattress?
The size and the springs work together here. With 75cm each for two people sharing, you're less likely to collide when turning, and the pocket springs compress independently rather than moving as one unit. If your schedules differ, one of you leaving early causes less of a ripple than it would on a smaller bed.
Should I choose a UK king or UK super king in this mattress?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king; both are the same 200cm length. For the UK super king we suggest a room of at least 3m x 2.9m, so it demands a genuinely large bedroom. Most couples find the UK king the better balance of sleeping space and remaining floor room.
