Layer Details
- Belgian Damask Viscose Sleep Surface. A silky, breathable damask cover, which means the sleeping surface stays fresher through the night. It feels smooth rather than synthetic.
- Silk. A light, soft silk layer sits at the top of the fillings. It adds a gentle, luxurious feel to the first point of contact.
- Sustainably Sourced British Wool. Wool provides gentle cushioning with impressive resilience, which means it keeps its comfort over time rather than flattening quickly. It also breathes well.
- Cotton. Cotton helps regulate body temperature, so you're less likely to overheat. It adds a little extra support and natural comfort too.
- Cashmere. Cashmere is softer and finer than wool and is a rare filling, generally reserved for quality mattresses. It contributes to the plush surface feel above the firm support.
- 2000 Pocket Springs. Each of the 2000 springs sits in its own fabric pocket and works independently, which means better pressure relief and less disturbance when a partner moves. This layer is where the extra firm support comes from.

- Room for two in an ordinary bedroom: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double leaves space for a wardrobe and a chest of drawers in rooms where a UK king would press against the walls.
- Less disturbance from a partner: Each spring sits in its own pocket, which means a restless partner's movement travels less across your 67.5cm half of the bed.
- The same firm feel on both sides: The extra firm spring unit keeps back and front sleepers well supported, so a couple who both dislike sinking in get one consistent surface to share.
- Cooler for two bodies: Wool and cotton in the fillings help regulate temperature, which helps a little more when two people are generating heat under one double duvet.
- Easy to dress, with one catch: Double bedding is stocked almost everywhere, although at 31cm deep you'll want fitted sheets with deep pockets rather than a standard pair.
This size suits you if...
You share a bed with a partner who, like you, prefers a genuinely firm surface, and your bedroom has room for a double but would feel cramped with anything wider. It also suits you if you're setting up a guest room for visiting couples who mostly sleep on their backs or fronts.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner regularly bump elbows, or one of you sprawls across the middle. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each; allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

Is the Solace 2000 Extra Firm double wide enough for two people?
The UK double gives each of you 67.5cm. For two average builds who sleep fairly still, that's workable, and the independent pocket springs help keep one person's movement from reaching the other. If either of you is broad-shouldered or a starfish sleeper, the UK king gives 75cm each.
Will a Solace 2000 double fit with bedside tables on both sides?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m feeling comfortable. In a room near the smaller figure, two slim bedside tables are usually possible, but measure the gap either side of the 135cm width before committing to larger ones.
How much more space would the Solace 2000 UK king give us than the UK double?
The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double. Shared between two, that's 75cm each rather than 67.5cm, so you'd each gain 7.5cm. The trade-off is floor space: we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for the UK king, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double.
Is the Solace 2000 UK double long enough for a tall partner?
The UK double is 190cm long, the same length as the UK single. If one of you is tall enough for your feet to reach the end, the UK king adds 10cm of length as well as extra width, and that's the more comfortable option for a tall sleeper.
What size is the Solace 2000 double in feet and inches?
The UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, or 135 x 190cm. Check any bed frame or divan you already own against these figures, as some older frames are close to but not exactly this size. Remember that the 31cm depth also affects how high the bed sits.
