Layer Details
Cover
A fine quality ticking encases the mattress. It is the finishing layer you will feel through your sheet.
Fillings
British fleece wool sits alongside hand-teased horsetail blended with Devonshire wool. These natural fibres breathe well, which means less heat build-up overnight than you would get from synthetic foams.
Springs
The king size holds 2,030 vanadium steel, six-turn pocket springs in calico pockets. Each spring moves independently, so you feel support where you need it and less disturbance from a partner's movement.

Key benefits
- Room to spread out on your own: At 30cm wider than a UK single and the same length, the UK small double lets you curl up or sprawl without an arm drifting over the edge.
- Fits where a UK double will not: Being 15cm narrower than a UK double can decide whether a bedroom door opens fully or catches on the corner of the bed frame.
- Cooler in a close room: The horsetail and wool fillings breathe well, which means less heat builds up around you, a real help in a small room with little space around the bed.
- A tension chosen for one body: Soft, Medium, Firm and Extra Firm tensions are offered, so a solo sleeper can match the feel to their own build with no partner to compromise with.
- Straightforward to dress: 4ft is a standard UK width, so frames and small double fitted sheets are easy to find, and a standard double duvet covers it comfortably.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and like room to turn over without meeting the edge, your bedroom is a loft conversion or box room where every centimetre of floor matters, or a teenager in the house has outgrown a single but their room cannot give up much more space.
Consider another size if...
You share the bed with a partner every night and both of you need room to move. We'd recommend the UK double instead, which gives 67.5cm each; allow at least 2.6m x 2.8m.

FAQ's
Can I get split tension on a Vispring Kingsbridge small double?
No. Split tension on the Kingsbridge is offered in the UK king and UK super king only, so a UK small double has one tension across the whole surface. That is fine for a solo sleeper choosing their own feel. If two of you need different tensions on each side, the UK king is the smallest size that allows it.
Is a Vispring Kingsbridge small double big enough for one adult?
For most solo adults, yes. It measures 120 x 190cm, or 4ft x 6ft 3in, which is 30cm wider than a UK single at the same length. That extra width gives you room to change position freely. Taller sleepers should consider length too, since it matches a UK single rather than the longer UK king.
Will a Kingsbridge small double fit in a loft conversion?
Often, yes. We suggest a room of at least 2.4m x 2.8m for a UK small double. In a loft conversion with a sloping ceiling, measure the floor where you can actually stand, since you need to get in and out of bed comfortably. Being 15cm narrower than a UK double can free up that standing strip.
Is the Vispring Kingsbridge small double shorter than the king?
Yes. The UK small double is 10cm shorter than the UK king, and 30cm narrower. It is the same length as the UK single and UK double. If you are tall and your feet already reach the end of a standard bed, the UK king adds that length; we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for it.
Kingsbridge small double or double for a guest room?
If guests are mostly single visitors with the odd couple staying a night or two, the UK small double works well and takes less floor. If couples stay often, the UK double gives 67.5cm each and is 15cm wider. We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double, against 2.4m x 2.8m for the UK small double.
