- Room to sprawl on your own: At 30cm wider than the UK single, the UK small double lets you lie diagonally or starfish on the pillowtop without an elbow drifting off the edge.
- Keeps a snug bedroom usable: Being 15cm narrower than the UK double can be the margin that lets a door swing fully open or a chest of drawers pull out in a box room.
- Calmer nights for visiting couples: Pocket springs move independently, which means guests sharing this narrower surface for a night or two feel slightly less of each other turning over.
- Suits sloping loft ceilings: In a loft conversion, the UK small double leaves more floor free on the side where the ceiling is high enough to stand and get dressed.
- Straightforward to dress and frame: A 4ft bed is a standard UK size, so small double fitted sheets and bed frames are easy to find on the high street and online.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and want more room than a single gives you, your bedroom is too small for a 4ft 6in frame, or the bed is mostly for guests who share it now and then rather than every night.
Consider another size if...
You and a partner will share the bed every night. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

Is the Relyon Prescott Pillowtop 1000 small double big enough for a couple?
For the odd night, yes, and the independent pocket springs help limit disturbance when someone turns over. For nightly sharing, most couples will want more width. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each, with a suggested room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m.
What size room do I need for a Relyon Prescott Pillowtop small double?
We suggest allowing at least 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double. That leaves space to walk around the bed and open drawers. If your room is close to that minimum, measure where the door swings before ordering.
Should I choose the Relyon Prescott Pillowtop 1000 in a small double or a single?
If the room can take it, the UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single at the same length, which means far more room to turn. The UK single suits rooms under our small double minimum; we suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m for it.
Is a 4ft pillowtop mattress a good upgrade for a teenager?
It often is. A teenager who has outgrown a single gets extra width on a cushioned surface, while the room keeps more floor space than a UK double would allow. At 190cm long, it matches a single's length, so very tall teenagers may still find their feet near the end.
Will a UK small double pillowtop fit in a loft conversion?
Usually, if you plan around the slope. Measure the floor area where the ceiling gives full height, not the whole room, then check it against our suggested 2.4m x 2.8m. Pushing the 120cm width towards the low side keeps the standing space free.
