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 to lie still: You get 75cm each for two sharing, which means neither of you needs to shuffle or curl up to avoid an elbow in the night.
- Quieter early starts: The 2000 pocket springs move independently across the full 150cm width, so a partner who gets up before dawn is less likely to wake you.
- Length for taller sleepers: At 200cm, the UK king is 10cm longer than the UK double, which gives a taller partner room to stretch out without their feet reaching the edge.
- A measured step up: The UK king is 15cm wider than the UK double, a noticeable gain each night without needing the floor space a UK super king takes up.
- Firm support edge to edge: A wider extra firm surface gives back and front sleepers a flat, even platform wherever each of you lies, rather than just along the centre.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed every night and have started to feel cramped on a UK double, or one of you is tall enough that length matters as much as width. It also fits well when your working hours differ and one of you gets up long before the other.
Consider another size if...
Your bedroom is smaller than our suggested 2.7m x 2.9m for this size. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which needs at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

Is the Solace 2000 UK king big enough to stop disturbing my partner?
It gives you 75cm each, and the 2000 pocket springs respond independently, so movement on one side travels less to the other. The extra firm feel also means you sink less. That helps if one of you gets up for an early shift while the other is still asleep.
Is the Solace 2000 in a UK king long enough for a tall person?
The UK king measures 150 x 200cm, or 5ft x 6ft 6in, so it is 10cm longer than the UK double. If the taller of you is approaching 6ft, that added length is often the real reason to upgrade. Width is the bonus.
Solace 2000 UK king or UK super king for a couple?
The UK super king gives 90cm each, so the UK king gives 15cm less each. Both sizes are the same length. Choose the UK super king if you want the most personal space and your room allows at least 3m x 2.9m. Otherwise the UK king is the sensible choice.
Will a UK king Solace 2000 fit in a new build master bedroom?
We suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m, and 3.2m x 3.2m feels comfortable. New build bedrooms can feel smaller once wardrobes and bedside tables are in, so measure the clear floor space before buying rather than going by the plan.
How much more room does a UK king Solace 2000 give than a UK double?
The UK double gives 67.5cm each for two sharing, so the UK king gives 7.5cm more each. It is also 10cm longer. On an extra firm mattress you tend to stay where you lie, so that extra space is easy to notice.
