Layer Details
- Pocket springs matter more when you share: Pocket springs move independently, which means a partner turning over at 2am is far less likely to wake you than on a linked spring build.
- 67.5cm each for two sharing: Two people sharing the UK double get 67.5cm each, enough for most couples who sleep close, though restless pairs may feel the boundary.
- Fits the rooms most of us actually have: We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, which most UK bedrooms clear with space left for bedside tables on both sides.
- Medium firm suits two different sleepers: A medium firm tension is a sensible compromise when two people with different sleep styles share one mattress, working well for back and combination sleepers.
- Bedding is cheap and everywhere: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm duvet are stocked in every supermarket and department store, so dressing this size never costs more than it should.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and want the classic couples' size without giving a bigger bed the whole room, or you sleep alone and like space to stretch out, perhaps with a dog or cat that has quietly claimed one corner. It also suits a guest room that needs to sleep visiting couples comfortably, in a footprint that still leaves space for a wardrobe.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both sleep restlessly, or one of you is broad shouldered, and 67.5cm each feels tight. We'd recommend the UK king instead: it gives 75cm each for two sharing, and we suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

Is the Millbrook Allure in a UK double big enough for a couple?
For most couples, yes. Two people sharing the UK double get 67.5cm of width each, and the pocket sprung construction limits how much you feel a partner moving. If either of you spreads out in the night, the UK king gives 75cm each, which is 7.5cm more per person.
What room size do I need for the Millbrook Allure double?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm. That's our guidance, not Millbrook's, and it allows for walking space and bedside tables on both sides. If your room is a typical UK double bedroom, the 135 x 190cm footprint should sit in it comfortably.
Will a UK double fit up narrow stairs in an older house?
At 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, a double is usually manageable on turning stairs in older terraces and tight new build landings, though a sprung mattress like the Allure flexes less than foam. Measure your tightest turn before ordering, and check the retailer's delivery access policy if you're unsure.
Should I get the Allure in a double or a king?
The UK double suits most shared bedrooms; the UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer, so it needs more floor space, and we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it. Choose the UK king if you're tall, sleep restlessly, or your room comfortably clears that minimum.
