- Proper space for one: At 120cm wide, the UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single, which means room to roll over and stretch without the bed dominating the room.
- Firm support in a compact footprint: Firmer mattresses often suit people who want a stable, flat sleeping surface, and this size delivers that feel in a room where a UK double would feel cramped.
- A pillowtop softens the first impression: The sewn-on pillowtop adds a gentler surface layer over the firm springs, which matters more on a bed you sleep on alone, right where you actually lie.
- Same length as a standard double: The UK small double and the UK double are both 190cm long, so you only give up width, a fair trade in a box room or loft conversion.
- Guest room friendly: Two people can share 120cm for the occasional stay, so it works in a spare room where couples visit sometimes but nobody sleeps nightly.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and have outgrown a single, but your bedroom cannot spare the width a UK double needs. Perhaps it's a box room where the door has to clear the bed frame, or a loft conversion with limited standing room. It also fits if you're furnishing a guest room or holiday let where couples stay occasionally rather than every night, and you want a firm, supportive feel for varied guests.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night. At 120cm, two adults get less personal space than each would have on a UK single, so we'd recommend the UK double instead: it's 15cm wider, gives 67.5cm each, and we suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

Is the Millbrook Allure small double big enough for a couple?
For occasional nights, yes. Two adults can share a 120cm width for a weekend stay, which is why this size suits guest rooms and holiday lets. For nightly sharing it's tight, and the firm feel gives you less scope to sink away from a partner's movement. Couples sleeping together every night should look at the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each.
What room size do I need for the Millbrook Allure in a UK small double?
We suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m. That allows walking space around the bed rather than just fitting the mattress in. It's our own guidance rather than Millbrook's, and it's one of this size's quiet advantages: a UK double asks for at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which many box rooms and loft conversions simply don't have.
Should I size up from the small double to the double for this mattress?
Size up if two of you will sleep on it most nights, since the UK double is 15cm wider and gives 67.5cm each. Stay with the UK small double if you sleep alone, because the extra 30cm over a UK single is where the real gain sits. Both sizes are the same 190cm length, so it's purely a width decision.
Will the Millbrook Allure small double fit in a loft conversion or box room?
This is the size designed for exactly that problem. At 120 x 190cm, it's 15cm narrower than a UK double, which is often the difference between a door that clears the bed and one that doesn't. Measure your usable floor space first, allowing for sloped ceilings, and check it against our suggested minimum of 2.4m x 2.8m.
