Layer Details
- Fits compact rooms: At 90cm wide it leaves room for a desk, wardrobe or toy storage in a small bedroom; we suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space.
- Natural materials for a growing sleeper: The plant and animal derived comfort layers breathe better than synthetic foams, which matters in a child's or teenager's room that runs warm in summer.
- A proper mattress for one adult: Medium firm support in the full 190cm length suits a single adult in a first flat or student room, rather than feeling like a stopgap children's bed.
- Cheap, easy bedding: Single fitted sheets and duvets are the most widely stocked of any size, and standard deep fitted singles will cover the 30cm depth.
- Guest ready: In a spare room that doubles as an office, or one set up with two single beds, the 90cm width keeps a walkway clear between furniture.
This size suits you if...
You're buying for a child or teenager and want natural materials in the bed they sleep on every night, you're a single adult furnishing a compact room or first flat, or you're setting up a guest room where floor space matters more than sleeping space. The 90 x 190cm footprint fits almost any UK bedroom.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed, or you're a restless solo sleeper who wants space to spread out. The Simba Natural Hybrid Escape isn't made in a UK small double, so we'd recommend the UK double instead.

Is the Simba Natural Hybrid Escape single too deep for a bunk bed?
Possibly. This mattress is 30cm deep, which is taller than many bunk, cabin and mid sleeper frames allow, because the guard rail needs to sit well above the mattress surface. Measure from the base to the top of the rail before buying, and check the frame maker's maximum mattress depth.
What size room do I need for a UK single Simba Natural Hybrid Escape?
The mattress itself is 90 x 190cm, and we suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space so you can walk around the bed and open drawers or wardrobe doors. That makes it workable in box rooms, loft conversions with a narrow footprint, and children's rooms where the bed competes with storage.
How much narrower is the UK single than the UK double?
The UK single is 45cm narrower than the UK double, and 60cm narrower than the UK king. If two children are sharing one room, two UK singles with a walkway between them will usually fit where a larger bed plus a second bed would not.
Is a UK single big enough for an adult?
For one adult, yes. At 90cm wide and 190cm long it's the standard UK one-person size, and the medium firm tension gives proper support rather than a child's-bed feel. Taller adults, or anyone who sprawls in their sleep, may prefer the extra length and width of the UK king.
Is the single a sensible choice for a spare room?
It works well where the room does double duty. A single bed leaves space for a desk in a spare room used as an office, and two singles suit hosts who prefer separate beds for guests. Compare the retailers listed on this page, as prices shown here are updated as retailers change them.
