Layer Details
- Cover. A Smooth-Tech™ fabric cover, which gives a sleek, even sleep surface. It's the layer you'll actually touch, so a smooth finish matters more than it sounds.
- Fillings. English cotton, Hampshire wool, silk and cashmere. These natural fibres breathe well and wick moisture, which means a drier, more temperature-stable night than synthetic fillings tend to give.
- Spring system. 1000 pocket springs and 5000 micro springs in the king size, arranged in 7 zones that mirror your body shape. The micro springs sit like a responsive comfort layer, so you get cushioning without losing support.
- Support. A double steel-framed system reinforces the edges and maximises the usable sleep area. In practice, you can sit or sleep near the edge without it sagging beneath you.

- Room to spread out on your own: The UK small double is 30cm wider than the UK single, so you can sleep diagonally or on your front with your arms out without reaching the edge.
- Edges you can actually sleep on: Double steel-framed edge support keeps the outer strip firm, which matters more on a narrower mattress because none of the 120cm width is lost to a sagging side.
- Fits a tighter double room: At 15cm narrower than the UK double but the same length, the UK small double can leave enough clearance for a wardrobe door or a bedside table.
- Breathable fillings for smaller rooms: Wool and cotton wick moisture, which helps in a small bedroom or loft conversion where warmth tends to build overnight with less air around the bed.
- A tall mattress to plan around: At 34cm deep it sits high on the frame, so under a sloping loft ceiling check the headroom where you'll sit up to read.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and a UK single now feels cramped, your double bedroom is too tight for a full double, or you want a guest bed that can take a visiting couple for a weekend without filling the room.
Consider another size if...
Two of you share the bed every night, because a small double gets tight quickly with two adults. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

What size is the Village Luxury 6850 small double in feet?
The UK small double is 4ft x 6ft 3in, or 120 x 190cm. That is a standard UK size, so any 4ft bed frame or divan base should take it. Because the mattress is 34cm deep, check that your headboard sits high enough to show above it once the bed is made up.
Will a Village Luxury 6850 small double fit in a box room?
It can, but measure first. We suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double. In a box room the thing to check is often the door: make sure it still opens fully once the frame is in, and that you have space to walk down one side.
Is a Village Luxury 6850 small double a good guest bed for couples?
For the odd weekend, yes. Two guests will be closer than on a full double, but the reinforced edges mean neither of you is pushed towards a soft outer rim. If a couple will use the room every night, the UK double is the better choice at 67.5cm each.
Should I buy a small double or a double for one person?
If you sleep alone and your room is compact, the UK small double gives you plenty of width in a smaller footprint. The UK double is 15cm wider and the same length, so it only makes sense if your room meets our suggested 2.6m x 2.8m and you want the extra side space.
Is a small double mattress a good fit for a loft conversion?
Often, yes. A narrower bed leaves more room to stand beside it where the ceiling slopes down, which a full double can take away. The Village Luxury 6850 is a tall 34cm deep, though, so check the headroom above the pillow end before you commit.
