- Real stretching room for one: At 120cm wide, the UK small double gives a solo sleeper generous room to move without needing the floor space a standard double demands.
- Firm support across the full width: The firm pocket sprung build keeps its feel consistent edge to edge, so a lone sleeper can use the whole 120cm rather than drifting to the middle.
- Fits compact rooms: With our suggested minimum of 2.4m x 2.8m, this size works in box rooms and loft conversions where a wider bed would block walkways or doors.
- Pocket springs suit occasional sharing: Independent springs mean less disturbance if a guest couple shares for a night or two, which makes this size a sensible spare room pick.
- Standard 4ft bedding: The UK small double is a standard UK size, so small double fitted sheets are easy to find and a normal double duvet sits nicely on top.
This size suits you if...
You're a solo adult who has outgrown a single and wants space to sprawl, your bedroom or loft conversion can't take a 4ft 6in frame without losing walking room, or you're furnishing a guest room or holiday let where couples stay occasionally rather than nightly. The firm feel adds an edge for heavier solo sleepers who find softer mattresses dip.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night and want proper personal space, since 120cm is snug for two long term. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each and needs a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is a UK small double big enough for one adult?
Comfortably. At 120cm wide, the UK small double gives a solo sleeper 30cm more width than a UK single at the same 190cm length, which is plenty of room to change position freely. The firm pocket sprung feel of the Allure Firm Pocket 1000 also keeps support even right across that width.
Can a couple sleep on the Millbrook Allure Firm Pocket 1000 in a small double?
For the odd night, yes. The pocket springs move independently, so one person turning over disturbs the other less than a connected coil would. For every night sharing, 120cm is tight, and we'd suggest the UK double, which gives 67.5cm of width each.
What room size do I need for a UK small double?
We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m. That leaves room to walk around the bed and open drawers or a door without squeezing past. It's our own guidance rather than Millbrook's, so treat it as a sensible minimum: a box room, studio or loft conversion at that size should cope.
How does the UK small double compare with the UK double?
The UK small double is 15cm narrower than the UK double, and both are 190cm long. That 15cm often decides whether the bed fits a compact room at all. If two of you will sleep on it nightly, the UK double is the better call; for one person, the small double is generous.
What bedding fits this size of the Allure Firm Pocket 1000?
You'll need small double (4ft) fitted sheets, which are widely stocked because the UK small double is a standard UK size. A normal double duvet works well on top, with a little pleasant overhang on each side for a solo sleeper.
