Key benefits
- Space to sprawl on your own: The extra 30cm over a UK single lets a solo back sleeper stretch out on a very firm surface without an arm hanging over the side.
- Kinder to a tight floor plan: Being 15cm narrower than a UK double, it can leave just enough clearance for a wardrobe or bedroom door to open fully rather than catching the frame.
- Steadier for occasional guests: Silentnight's edge-to-edge design is intended to limit partner disturbance, which helps when two visitors share the UK small double and lie closer together than they would at home.
- No hunt for odd bedding: Small double fitted sheets are a standard UK size and a standard double duvet covers this mattress, so spare bedding is easy to buy and replace.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone, want a very firm bed and have outgrown the width of a single, or you're furnishing a small spare room where a couple stays for the odd weekend but nobody sleeps every night.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night and want room to move without touching. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Is a UK small double Portloe Miracoil Ortho big enough for two people?
For a couple staying a night or two, yes, although you'll be closer together than on a standard double. For sharing every night we'd point you to the UK double, which gives 67.5cm each and is the same length. Bear in mind both versions are extra firm, so a guest who likes a softer bed may find it hard.
What size room do I need for a UK small double mattress?
We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double, which leaves space to walk around the bed. In a box room or an attic bedroom with a sloping ceiling, the narrower width can mean a bedside table still fits, or that you can get out of bed where there's standing room.
Is the Portloe Miracoil Ortho in a UK small double good for a teenager?
It suits a teenager who has outgrown a single but whose room can't spare much more floor. The UK small double is 30cm wider than a UK single and the same length. The extra-firm rating is the catch: lighter sleepers and side sleepers can find there's very little give at the shoulders and hips.
What bedding fits a UK small double Silentnight Portloe mattress?
Use small double fitted sheets, sold as 4ft, with a standard double duvet on top. Silentnight doesn't publish a depth for this mattress, so check the pocket depth of any fitted sheet against the mattress once it arrives, or choose deep-pocket sheets to be safe.
Small double or double Portloe Miracoil Ortho: which should I choose?
Choose the UK small double if you sleep alone or the room is tight, as it's 15cm narrower and needs a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m. Choose the UK double if two of you share nightly; we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m. Both are the same length.
