Layer Details
- Comfort Layer. Natural Hampshire fleece wool, specially selected for being thicker and fuller than standard wool, which means a springy, resilient feel underneath you. Wool also has natural temperature-regulating properties, so it works across seasons.
- Comfort Layer. Natural cotton fibres create a fresh sleeping environment, regulating body temperature and wicking away moisture. In practice, that means less of the clammy feeling you can get with synthetic layers.
- Support System. 2000 individually hand-nested pocket springs work actively to distribute personalised support to each part of the body. Because each spring moves on its own, you're less likely to feel a partner shifting during the night.

- Real space for two: At 75cm each for two people sharing, you both get room to stretch without meeting in the middle.
- A meaningful step up from a double: The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double, which works out at 7.5cm more space each, a difference you feel every night.
- Extra length for taller sleepers: The UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, so anyone approaching six foot stops sleeping diagonally.
- 2000 springs across a wider bed: Hand-nested pocket springs move independently, so at this width a partner getting up early is less likely to wake you at all.
- Wool comfort with more surface to share: Hampshire fleece wool and cotton regulate temperature, useful when two bodies share one bed and one of you runs hot.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and a double has started to feel cramped, you or your partner keep different hours and want the width and independent springs to sleep through early alarms, or one of you is approaching six foot and needs the 200cm length. It also suits couples whose dog treats the bed as its own, since the extra width absorbs a third occupant more gracefully.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than the 2.7m x 2.9m we suggest, or you sleep alone. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m and still offers the same firm wool-and-spring build.

Is a UK king big enough for a couple on a firm mattress?
Yes, comfortably for most. You get 75cm each for two people sharing, and because the Millbrook Wool Luxury Ortho 2000 is medium firm you won't roll towards the middle, so each of you keeps your own space. Restless sleepers or anyone sharing with a pet may still prefer the UK super king.
Will the UK king Millbrook Wool Luxury Ortho fit my bedroom?
We suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, with more feeling comfortable once wardrobes and bedside tables are in. New build master bedrooms can be tighter than they look on a floor plan, so measure with the furniture in place before committing.
Is the UK king long enough for someone over six foot?
At 200cm, or 6ft 6in, the UK king gives a taller sleeper genuine clearance, and it's 10cm longer than the UK double. If one of you is well over six foot, that extra length is often the real reason to size up, more so than the width.
Does a UK king help if my partner gets up earlier than me?
It helps on two fronts. The width means you're further from the movement, and the 2000 hand-nested pocket springs compress independently, so someone climbing out at 5am transfers less motion across the bed. Across a 150cm width, that combination makes a real difference to light sleepers.
Should I choose the UK king or the UK super king?
The UK king is 30cm narrower than the UK super king, which gives 90cm each for two sharing against the UK king's 75cm. Both are the same length. Go for the UK super king if your room offers at least 3m x 2.9m; otherwise the UK king is the sensible fit.
