Layer Details
British fleece wool
A top layer of British fleece wool, which means natural warmth and a soft, breathable sleeping surface.
Hand-teased horsetail and Devonshire wool
Hand-teased horsetail blended with Devonshire wool. Horsetail is springy and breathable, so the surface feels soft without collapsing under you.
British fleece wool
A second layer of British fleece wool sits between the fillings and the springs, adding cushioning depth.
Pocket springs
A two layer hand-nested calico pocket spring construction, with 2,030 vanadium steel springs in the 150 x 200cm size. Each spring moves independently, which means support that follows your shape and less disturbance from a partner.

Key benefits
- Leaves room for everything else: At 90cm wide it sits against one wall and still leaves space for a desk, wardrobe and toy storage, which matters in a busy child's bedroom.
- Soft feel for lighter sleepers: Vispring describes this tension as medium-soft, which means children and slim teens sink in enough to cushion shoulders and hips rather than lying on top of the surface.
- Natural fillings that breathe: Wool and hand-teased horsetail sit over the springs, so a teenager who runs warm is less likely to overheat than on a foam-topped single.
- Fits under a sloping ceiling: The narrow footprint lets you tuck the bed lengthways beneath the slope of a loft conversion, where a wider mattress would push into the lower headroom.
- Pairs well for guests: Two UK singles side by side let visiting friends or family sleep separately, and each independent pocket spring layer keeps one sleeper's movement to their own bed.
This size suits you if...
You sleep alone and weigh on the lighter side, or you're furnishing a child's or teenager's room where floor space is tight. It also fits if you're setting up a spare room that needs a proper bed for guests without giving up the desk.
Consider another size if...
You share a bed, or you're a solo adult who likes to spread out. The UK small double would suit you better: it is 30cm wider and we suggest at least 2.4m x 2.8m for it.

FAQ's
Will a Vispring Kingsbridge UK single fit a bunk bed or mid sleeper?
The mattress is 23cm deep with 6cm of doming on top, which is taller than many mattresses sold for raised frames. Before buying, check the frame maker's maximum mattress height so the guard rail still sits well above the sleeping surface. On a standard divan or low frame, the depth is no issue.
Is the Vispring Kingsbridge Soft UK single a good mattress for a child?
The soft tension suits lighter bodies, so a child or slim teenager gets real cushioning rather than a hard surface. The catch is cost: this is a handmade mattress, and a child may outgrow a single long before the mattress wears out. If you want it to see them through their teens, the build quality supports that.
What room size do I need for a Vispring Kingsbridge UK single?
We suggest allowing at least 2.1m x 2.8m of floor space. That leaves space to walk around the bed and open drawers or a wardrobe. In a smaller room, pushing the bed against a wall frees up more floor, and the 90cm width makes that easy.
Is a UK single Kingsbridge long enough for a tall adult?
The UK single is 190cm long, the same as the UK small double and UK double. If you're tall and your feet reach the end, the UK king and UK super king are both 10cm longer, although both are much wider too. For most teenagers and average-height adults, 190cm is enough.
Should I put two Kingsbridge UK singles in a guest room instead of a double?
Two singles work well if your guests are often friends, siblings or adult children who would rather not share. Each sleeper gets their own soft surface and 90cm of width. For couples who visit most often, a single bed each can feel distant, so the UK double may suit them better.
