Key benefits
- Less disturbance at close quarters: Sink-in memory foam cuts motion transfer, which means a partner turning over a short distance away is less likely to wake you.
- Usable space right to the edge: Silentnight's parallel spring design is meant to give edge-to-edge space, which helps you make the most of every centimetre of a 135cm width.
- Support that suits two different bodies: The Mirapocket springs adjust individually, so a lighter and a heavier partner can each be supported where they press down.
- Fits a typical UK bedroom: We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, which most main bedrooms clear with room for a bedside table on each side.
- Softer feel without losing balance: The pillow top adds a cushioned surface, while the mattress is still rated medium, which suits couples who don't want to sink right in.
- Kinder to allergy-prone sharers: The quilted aloe vera infused cover is hypoallergenic, a plus when one of you reacts to dust or bedding.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner and want a medium pillow top feel, but your bedroom needs to keep space for wardrobes and a bedside table each side. It also fits if you're furnishing a guest room for visiting couples, or you sleep alone and like room to stretch out with a pet curled at the foot.
Consider another size if...
You both sprawl or one of you is tall, and your room clears our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each and is 10cm longer.

FAQ's
What size is the Silentnight Portchester pillow top UK double in feet and inches?
The UK double measures 135 x 190cm, which is 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in. It's 27cm deep, so allow for that when choosing fitted sheets, as a deep pillow top mattress can pull shallow sheets off the corners.
Is the Portchester UK double big enough for two adults?
For most couples, yes, although it's snug. Each of you gets 67.5cm of width, and the sink-in memory foam helps by reducing motion transfer when one of you moves. If you both like to spread out, the UK king gives 7.5cm more each, and we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.
What room size do I need for a UK double pillow top mattress?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double. That leaves enough space to walk round the bed and keep a bedside table each side in most bedrooms. If your room is smaller, the UK small double is 15cm narrower and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.
Will a Portchester UK double fit up narrow or turning stairs?
Measure first, because the mattress is 135cm wide and 27cm deep with a pillow top, and older terraces with a turn in the stairs or tight new build landings can catch out a double. Check the tightest point against those figures, then compare the retailers listed on this page.
Should I choose the Portchester in a UK double or UK king?
The UK double is 15cm narrower and 10cm shorter than the UK king, giving each sleeper 7.5cm less width. Choose the UK double if your room is closer to our suggested 2.6m x 2.8m. Go for the UK king if your room clears 2.7m x 2.9m and you want more personal space.
