Layer Details
- Memory Foam with Pillowtop. A layer of memory foam combined with a pillowtop, which means the surface contours to your body while adding a plush, cushioned feel from the moment you lie down. It is the part of the mattress you will notice most.
- Mirapocket Springs. 2000 Mirapocket springs sit in individual pockets and respond independently to body movement, which means better spinal alignment and less motion transfer between partners. That spring count applies to the King size, with other sizes adjusted proportionally.

- Real room to spread out: At 120cm wide, this size lets a solo adult sink into the memory foam and pillowtop with space to shift position freely through the night.
- A double feel in a compact room: The UK small double is 15cm narrower than the UK Double, which can be the difference between a bedroom that works and one you sidle around.
- Pocket springs matter for shared nights: The individually pocketed Mirapocket springs limit motion transfer, useful when a guest room hosts the occasional couple who move at different times.
- Standard 4ft sizing: The small double is a standard UK size, so frames, small double fitted sheets and a regular double duvet are all easy to find.
- Medium feel for mixed use: A medium mattress with a cushioned top suits a range of guests and sleeping positions, sensible when you cannot predict who will be using the bed.
This size suits you if...
You're a solo sleeper who has outgrown a UK single but your bedroom, perhaps a box room, loft conversion or the smaller bedroom in a new flat, cannot take a full double. Or you're kitting out a guest room or holiday let where couples stay occasionally rather than nightly, and you want a cushioned, forgiving surface that suits whoever turns up.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night, in which case the UK small double will feel tight for two over time. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which is 15cm wider and the same length; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

Is a small double big enough for a teenager who has outgrown a single?
Yes, comfortably. The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single and the same 190cm length, so a growing teenager gets noticeably more width without the room losing much floor space. The medium feel with a cushioned pillowtop suits most sleeping positions, which helps at an age when preferences are still settling.
Will the Silentnight Memory 2000 small double fit in a box room?
Often, yes. The mattress is 120 x 190cm and we suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m. In a box room or studio, measure carefully before buying: the width of the bed frame decides whether the door still opens fully and whether you can walk down at least one side.
Can a couple sleep on the small double version of this mattress?
For occasional nights, yes. The 2000 Mirapocket springs respond independently, so one person turning over disturbs the other less, which helps two people share 120cm of width. For every night, most couples would find it tight, and the UK double or UK king would be the better long-term choice.
How much smaller is the small double than the king size?
The UK small double is 30cm narrower than the UK king and 10cm shorter, since the king runs to 200cm long. That length difference matters for taller sleepers. Room needs differ too: we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double, against 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king.
Is the small double a good choice for a holiday let bedroom?
It works well in a small second bedroom. Solo guests get generous space, occasional couples can share, and the medium pillowtop feel is forgiving across different body types and positions. Because 4ft is a standard UK size, replacing fitted sheets is straightforward, and a standard double duvet covers it. Compare the retailers listed on this page for current prices.
