- Independent springs where couples need them: Each spring compresses on its own, which means one of you turning over at 3am registers far less on the other side of a 135cm bed.
- A shared bed that leaves the room usable: At 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, the UK double fits comfortably in rooms where a UK king would crowd out bedside tables on both sides.
- Easy to dress, cheaply or expensively: Double sheets and 200 x 200cm duvets are stocked everywhere, so bedding for this size costs less and takes less hunting than king equivalents.
- The right footprint for a guest room: A double handles visiting couples without dominating a spare room, and a hand crafted pocket spring feel makes guests genuinely comfortable rather than merely accommodated.
- Simple to compare at a glance: This size is stocked by the retailers listed on this page, and the prices shown here update as they change them.
This size suits you if...
You and a partner share the bed every night and your room sits around the typical UK size, comfortably clearing our suggested 2.6m x 2.8m minimum but without space to spare for anything wider. Or you sleep alone and want proper room to spread out, perhaps with a dog or cat that has quietly claimed a corner. It also suits a guest room that regularly hosts couples.
Consider another size if...
You're a couple with a larger room and either of you feels 67.5cm each is tight. The UK king gives 75cm each for two sharing and is 10cm longer; we'd recommend it if your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is the Relyon Hand Crafted Exquisite UK double big enough for a couple?
Yes, for most couples. The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two people sharing, which is the long standing British standard, and the pocket spring construction reduces how much movement transfers between you. Taller sleepers should note the 190cm length, though. If either of you is over six feet, the UK king's extra 10cm of length is worth considering.
Will the Relyon Hand Crafted Exquisite in a UK double fit my bedroom?
At 135 x 190cm, it fits most UK bedrooms. We suggest allowing at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space, with around 3m x 3m the comfortable norm if you want bedside tables on both sides and drawers that open fully. Measure your room before ordering rather than judging by eye; 15cm either way changes how a room feels.
Should I choose this mattress in a UK double or a UK king?
It comes down to your room. The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king, and the UK king gives 75cm each for two sharing, so the UK double gives 7.5cm less each. If your room allows at least 2.7m x 2.9m and you both like space, size up. In a smaller room, the double keeps the space workable.
Is a UK double too big for one person?
No, and for a solo sleeper it can be a treat. The UK double is 45cm wider than the UK single at the same length, which means room to stretch out, change position freely, or share with a pet that insists on its own corner. The independent pocket springs also mean the mattress contours to you rather than moving as one unit.
What are the dimensions of the Relyon Hand Crafted Exquisite in a UK double?
It measures 135 x 190cm, or 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in in imperial. That's the standard UK double footprint, so it fits any UK double bed frame and takes standard double sheets with a 200 x 200cm duvet. Relyon doesn't publish a depth for this mattress, so check with the retailer if your fitted sheets have shallow pockets.
