Layer Details
Pillow top
An extra layer of comfort on the surface for a more cushioned feel. It softens the first impression of the mattress without changing its firm rating.
Comfort layer
A soft blend of Hampshire wool and English spun cotton. These natural fibres add cushioning between you and the springs.
Sprung core
1000 individually pocketed springs, each encased in a cloth pocket. This gives the firm support the mattress is rated for.

Key benefits
- Fits small rooms: We suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space, which means a box room or a child's bedroom can still fit storage and a desk.
- Room for two beds: At 3ft x 6ft 3in, two UK singles can sit side by side with a walkway, which suits siblings sharing or a guest room set up for twins.
- Firm support for one: Millbrook rates it firm, which means a growing teen or a back-sleeping adult gets steady support with a little cushioning from the pillow top.
- Steadier edges in a narrow bed: The double metal rod border should make the sides feel more stable, which matters more on a UK single where you sleep closer to the edge.
- Same length as a double: The UK single is the same length as the UK double, so a taller teenager loses width rather than legroom by staying on this size.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and want firm support, you're furnishing a child's or teenager's room where the bed shares space with a desk and wardrobe, or your spare room doubles as an office and needs a guest bed with a small footprint.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed, or a lightweight side sleeper wants more room to shift position. The UK single is 30cm narrower than the UK small double, which we'd recommend instead; allow at least 2.4m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Will the Millbrook Wool Ortho 1000 Pillow Top UK single fit a bunk bed?
Possibly, but check first. The mattress is 29cm deep, which is a lot for a bunk, cabin or mid-sleeper frame. These frames usually set a maximum mattress depth so the guard rail stays effective. If the frame's limit is below 29cm, a thinner mattress would be the safer choice for the top bunk.
What size is a Millbrook Wool Ortho 1000 Pillow Top single?
The UK single measures 90 x 190cm, or 3ft x 6ft 3in, and it's 29cm deep. That's the standard UK single footprint, so it should suit any frame built for a UK single, provided the frame can take the depth.
How much space do I need for a UK single Millbrook Ortho mattress?
We suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space for a UK single. That leaves room to walk around the bed and open a wardrobe. In a loft conversion, place the bed under the slope where headroom matters least and keep the walkway where you can stand.
Is the UK single Millbrook Wool Ortho 1000 Pillow Top long enough for a teenager?
The UK single is the same length as the UK small double and the UK double, at 190cm. Only the UK king and UK super king add length, both being 10cm longer than the UK single. If your teenager is very tall, those sizes give more legroom, though they need far bigger rooms.
Is a firm UK single mattress suitable for a child?
Millbrook rates this mattress firm, and the pillow top only softens the surface slightly. Children who sleep on their backs may find it supportive. Light children who curl up on their side could find it unforgiving, so think about how they sleep before choosing this one for a UK single bed.
