Fillings
Bonded British fleece wool and cotton, horsehair, then blended British fleece wool and cotton. These natural fillings breathe and manage moisture well, which means a cooler, drier feel through the night than synthetic alternatives.
Springs
1476 vanadium steel, six-turn pocket springs in the king size, each sewn into its own calico pocket. Because every spring moves independently, you get pressure relief where you need it and less disturbance from a partner shifting position.
Cover
Finest quality ticking. A durable woven cover that lets the natural fillings breathe.

Key benefits
- Leaves room for the rest of your furniture: At 135 x 190cm, the UK double still leaves space for a wardrobe and a chest of drawers in a modest bedroom, where a UK king would take over the floor.
- Less disturbance in a closer space: Each spring is sewn into its own calico pocket and moves independently, which means one sleeper shifting position travels less across a bed where you share 67.5cm each.
- Space for bedside tables on both sides: We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m, and a room of around 3m x 3m lets you keep a bedside table each side without edging sideways past the bed.
- Soft comfort for visiting couples: In a guest room, the gentle, cushioned feel suits guests who stay a few nights, and a solo sleeper sharing with a cat or dog still has room to stretch.
- Straightforward to dress: Double sheets and duvets are easy to find, though you'll want fitted sheets deep enough for the 21cm depth plus 6cm of doming from the natural fillings.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner in a bedroom of ordinary British proportions, and you want soft, all-natural comfort without giving up the floor space a UK king would claim.
Consider another size if...
You're both tall, or you each like plenty of personal space at night. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which is 10cm longer; we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.

FAQ's
Is the Vispring Herald Superb UK double wide enough for two people?
For most couples, yes. The UK double gives you 67.5cm each, which is fine if you sleep fairly close. The individually pocketed springs help here, because a partner's movement stays more local. If either of you sprawls, the UK king gives 7.5cm more each.
What are the Vispring Herald Superb double dimensions in feet?
The UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, or 135 x 190cm. The mattress is 21cm deep, and the generous natural fillings add around 6cm of doming on top, so the bed will sit a little higher than the stated depth suggests.
Will a Vispring Herald Superb UK double fit a small bedroom?
We suggest a room of at least 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double, with around 3m x 3m being more comfortable if you want bedside tables on both sides and space to open a wardrobe door without clipping the bed.
Vispring Herald Superb double or king for a tall couple?
If height is the concern, the UK king is the better choice. The UK double is 10cm shorter and 15cm narrower than the UK king. For the UK king, we suggest a room of at least 2.7m x 2.9m, so measure before you decide.
Is a Vispring Herald Superb UK double much bigger than a UK small double?
The UK double is 15cm wider than the UK small double, and both are the same length. That extra width makes the UK double the more realistic choice for couples sharing every night. We suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double.
