Layer Details
- Made for typical UK bedrooms: At 135cm wide, it fits comfortably where a UK king would crowd the room; we suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
- Room for two, if you sleep close: Two people sharing get 67.5cm each, which suits couples who don't mind a slightly cosier arrangement than a king offers.
- Space for bedside tables: The 135cm width usually leaves enough wall on both sides for matching bedside tables, something a wider bed often rules out in an average room.
- Easy to dress: Double sheets and duvets are sold everywhere at every price, so bedding for this size never becomes a hunt.
- Premium comfort in a moderate footprint: You get Millbrook's wool and pocket spring approach in a size that works in a main bedroom or a well-used guest room alike.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and your bedroom sits around the typical UK size, so a UK king would leave the room feeling cramped. It also suits a solo sleeper who wants space to spread out, or a pet who claims a corner, without paying for width you'd never use. And if you're setting up a guest room that visiting couples will use, the UK double is the standard they'll expect.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner both like room to sprawl, or one of you is a restless sleeper. The UK King is 15cm wider and 10cm longer, giving 75cm each rather than 67.5cm; we'd recommend it if your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is the UK double big enough for a couple on this Millbrook mattress?
It works for most couples, with 67.5cm of width each for two people sharing. That's the long-standing UK standard, although broader-shouldered pairs or restless sleepers may prefer the UK king, which gives 75cm each. If you've shared a double before and never felt squeezed, this size will feel familiar.
What room size do I need for the Millbrook Wool Sublime in a UK double?
We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m, with around 3m x 3m being the comfortable norm. That allowance leaves walking space at the foot and sides, and in most rooms enough wall for bedside tables on both sides, which a wider bed often sacrifices.
Should I get this mattress in a UK double or a UK king?
It comes down to your room. The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer, and gives each sleeper 7.5cm more width, but we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m of floor space for it. If your bedroom is closer to the 2.6m x 2.8m minimum for a UK double, stay with the double.
Will a double mattress fit up narrow stairs in an older house?
At 135 x 190cm the UK double is easier to manoeuvre than a king through turning staircases in older terraces or tight new build landings, though a pocket sprung mattress like this one can't be folded. Measure your stairwell and any tight corners before ordering, and check access with the retailer listed on this page.
What bedding fits the Millbrook Wool Sublime UK double?
Standard UK double bedding: double fitted sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet. Because the double is Britain's most common size, you'll find bedding for it in every shop and at every price point, which makes this an easy size to live with long term.
