Layer Details
- Real room to spread out: At 120cm wide, the UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single, so a solo adult can shift position freely without meeting the edge.
- Fits where a double will not: It's 15cm narrower than the UK double, which can be the difference between a bed that fits a box room and one that blocks the door.
- Pocket springs for restless nights: The 1000 pocket springs move independently, which means less of the bounce-through you feel on cheaper open coil beds when you turn over.
- Medium firm for solo back sleepers: A medium firm tension keeps your spine level whichever side of the mattress you drift to, useful when you have the whole 4ft width to yourself.
- A size many brands skip: Plenty of ranges jump straight from single to double, so finding the Allure in a UK small double saves compromising on either the mattress or the room.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and have outgrown a single but your bedroom, loft conversion or studio can't take a full double, or you're furnishing a guest room or holiday let where couples stay occasionally rather than nightly. It also suits a teenager who needs more width without giving up the remaining floor space. Allow at least 2.4m x 2.8m of room.
Consider another size if...
Two of you will share it every night, because 120cm is snug for permanent couple use. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each for two sharing; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m for that size.

Is a small double big enough for the Millbrook Allure to suit a couple?
For occasional stays, yes. Guests sharing a UK small double for a weekend will manage comfortably, and the pocket springs limit disturbance when one person turns. For every night, 120cm of width is tight for two adults, and we'd point regular sharers towards the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each.
What room size do I need for a small double Millbrook Allure?
We suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m. That leaves enough space to walk around the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. If your room is smaller than that, measure carefully before ordering, since a bed that technically fits can still make the room awkward to use.
How much wider is the small double Allure than a single?
The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single, and the two are the same length at 190cm. That extra width is the whole point of the size: a solo sleeper gets proper stretching room without the footprint of a full double.
Does the medium firm feel work for one person on a small double?
For back and combination sleepers, generally yes, as medium firm keeps you supported across the full 120cm width. If you're a lighter side sleeper, the tension may not let your shoulder and hip sink in enough, and that's true whichever size you pick, so try it in a similar tension first if you can.
What bedding fits the small double Millbrook Allure?
You'll need small double (4ft) fitted sheets, which are widely stocked as 4ft is a standard UK size. A standard double duvet works well on top, giving a bit of overhang on each side. Avoid single bedding, as a 90cm sheet won't stretch across the 120cm width.
