Layer Details
- A grown-up single: Pocket springs with a pillowtop finish give a solo sleeper the sort of comfort usually reserved for larger sizes, useful if a double simply won't fit your room.
- Compact footprint: At 90cm wide, it leaves floor space free for a desk, wardrobe or toy storage in a child's or teenager's room.
- Medium firm for growing sleepers: The medium firm billing suits older children and teens who need proper support, which means it can last through the school years rather than being outgrown.
- Guest room friendly: In a spare room that doubles as an office, a UK single keeps the working half of the room usable while still giving guests a comfortable pocket-sprung bed.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Single sheets and a standard 135 x 200cm single duvet fit, and both are the most widely stocked and affordable bedding of any UK size.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child's or teenager's room where the bed shares space with a desk and wardrobe, you sleep alone in a compact room or loft conversion where only a 90cm footprint fits under the slope, or you're furnishing a spare room and want guests on something more supportive than a basic foam single.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who tends to sprawl, or you share the bed even occasionally. The UK small double is 30cm wider at the same length, and we suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

Is a UK single big enough for an adult?
For one average-sized adult, yes: at 90 x 190cm it's the standard UK one-person size. Taller or broader sleepers, or anyone who moves around a lot at night, may feel restricted. If your room allows, the UK small double is 30cm wider and the same length, giving noticeably more room to spread out.
Will the Millbrook Allure single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK bunk and mid-sleeper frames. Raised frames often have a maximum mattress depth for safety rails, though, and Millbrook doesn't publish full specification detail for this model, so check the depth with the retailer against your frame's limit before buying.
How much floor space does a UK single mattress need?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space for a UK single, which gives you room to walk around the bed and open drawers or wardrobe doors. That makes it a realistic fit for box rooms, lofts with a narrow usable strip under the slope, and children's rooms already busy with furniture.
Is this a good single mattress for a child's room?
It's a step up from the basic foam singles often bought for children. The pocket springs and medium firm feel offer support that suits older children and teenagers as they grow. For a very young child moving out of a cot, the pillowtop comfort is a little more than they need, but it won't do any harm.
Can I put two of these singles together for guests?
Yes, two UK singles side by side measure 180 x 190cm, and in a guest room they're more flexible than one big bed: separate for friends or siblings, pushed together for a couple. Bear in mind a true UK super king is 10cm longer, so super king bedding will sit slightly loose lengthways.
