Layer Details
- Cover. A Smooth-Tech™ fabric sleep surface. It gives a smooth, even feel across the top of the mattress.
- Fillings. English cotton, Hampshire wool, silk and cashmere. These natural fibres breathe and wick moisture, which means a cooler, drier feel through the night than synthetic fillings tend to give.
- Spring system. In the king size, 1000 pocket springs work with 5000 micro springs across 7 zones that mirror your body shape. Each spring moves independently, which means less disturbance from a restless partner and support tailored to your shoulders, hips and lower back.
- Support. A double steel-framed support system reinforces the mattress edges. That means firmer sitting support at the sides and a usable sleep surface right to the edge.

- Room to sprawl on your own: At 30cm wider than a UK single and the same length, you can sleep diagonally or starfish without an arm dropping off the side.
- Edges you can use: The double steel-framed edge support keeps the sides firm, which means the full 120cm width of a UK small double stays usable rather than rolling away at the margins.
- Fits the tighter double room: Being 15cm narrower than a UK double can decide whether a wardrobe door still opens or you can walk past the foot of the bed.
- Cooler for one sleeper: The wool and cotton fillings breathe, so a solo sleeper who runs warm keeps a drier surface than synthetic foam tends to allow in a small room.
- Standard 4ft bedding: The UK small double measures 4ft x 6ft 3in, a common UK size, so matching frames and fitted sheets are easy to find.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and have outgrown a single, you want a firm, traditionally sprung bed in a compact bedroom or loft conversion, or the bed is for a guest room where couples stay only now and then.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed every night, or you like plenty of personal space beside a partner. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; we suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for it.

What size is the Village Luxury 4850 small double in feet?
The UK small double measures 4ft x 6ft 3in, or 120 x 190cm. The mattress is 33cm deep in every size, so check your frame suits a deeper mattress and that your fitted sheets have deep enough pockets.
Will a Village Luxury 4850 small double fit in a box room?
Often, yes. For a UK small double we suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m, which leaves space to get in and out and open doors. In a studio flat or loft conversion, measure where the door swings before you order.
Can a couple share a small double firm mattress?
For the odd weekend, yes. The pocket springs move independently, so you feel a little less of each other's movement, and the firm edges help you use the full width. For sharing every night, the UK double gives 67.5cm each and is the more comfortable choice.
Is a small double a good upgrade from a single for a teenager?
It can be. The UK small double is 30cm wider than a UK single and the same length, so a growing teenager gets more width without losing much floor space. Lightweight sleepers may find the firm tension slightly unyielding, and the medium version could suit them better.
Should I get the Village Luxury 4850 in a small double or a double?
Choose the UK small double if you sleep alone or your room is tight: it is 15cm narrower than a UK double and the same length. If two of you sleep in it most nights, the UK double is the better buy.
