Layer Details
- Tufted pillow top. A tufted pillow top with durable, responsive natural latex, British wool and sustainable fresh fibres. Tufting holds the fillings in place, which means the plush surface should keep its shape rather than shifting over time.
- Blended natural latex comfort layer. A durable and responsive blended natural latex layer designed for an undisturbed, restful night's sleep. Latex recovers its shape quickly, so turning over feels easier than on slower-moving foams.
- British Wool. A layer of temperature-regulating British wool that adds breathability and durability. In practice this means the mattress wicks away heat and moisture, helping you stay at a comfortable temperature through the night.
Layer details from silentnight.co.uk product page, September 2026.
- Natural materials at the one-person size: Blended natural latex and British wool are unusual in a single, which means a child, teen or solo adult gets the same cooler, responsive feel as the larger sizes.
- Leaves room to live around it: At 90cm wide, the bed leaves floor space for a desk, wardrobe or toy storage in rooms where every metre matters.
- A softer feel suits lighter sleepers: This is the softer of the two firmness options, and lighter bodies tend to sink in enough to actually feel that plushness, which heavier sleepers sometimes don't.
- Wool keeps a small room comfortable: The temperature-regulating British wool wicks heat and moisture, useful in box rooms and loft spaces that warm up quickly.
- A guest bed that doesn't feel like an afterthought: In a spare room that doubles as an office, the tufted pillow top gives visitors a genuinely plush night rather than a token bed.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for one person: a child or teenager moving up from a starter bed, a solo adult in a compact room or first flat, or a guest room where a 90cm footprint fits and a UK double wouldn't. It also suits you if you want natural latex and wool for a young sleeper who runs hot, and you have at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space.
Consider another size if...
You're an adult who shares the bed, even occasionally, or you simply want more room to stretch out. We'd recommend the UK double instead: it's 45cm wider than the UK single, the same length, and we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space for it.

Will the Palm 2000 in a UK single fit a bunk or mid sleeper frame?
Check the frame's maximum mattress depth first. The Palm 2000 is 31cm deep, which is thicker than many bunk and mid sleeper frames allow, since a tall mattress can leave the safety rail too low. The 90 x 190cm footprint matches standard UK single frames, so width and length are fine; depth is the thing to verify.
Is the softer Palm 2000 a good choice for a child's single bed?
For older children and teenagers, yes with a caveat. The natural latex and wool are breathable and naturally hypoallergenic, which helps young sleepers who run hot or have sensitivities. It is the softer firmness option though, so a child who prefers a firmer, more supportive surface may be better served by the firmer variant of this mattress.
What size room do I need for a UK single mattress?
We suggest at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space for a UK single, which gives you room to walk round the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. That's our own guidance rather than Silentnight's. In a child's room competing with a desk and toy storage, the 90cm width is what keeps the rest of the floor usable.
Should I buy the Palm 2000 in a UK single or a UK double?
It comes down to who's sleeping on it. The UK single is 45cm narrower than the UK double, and the two are the same length, so a solo adult who likes to sprawl may prefer the extra width. For the UK double we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m of floor space, so measure your room before sizing up.
Is a UK single Palm 2000 long enough for an adult?
At 190cm long, or 6ft 3in, it suits most adults comfortably. If you're very tall, the UK king version runs 10cm longer, though it's also 60cm wider and needs a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m by our guidance. For a guest room or student flat, the UK single's length is rarely the limiting factor.
