Ticking
The outer cover is made from soft to the touch, finest quality ticking. It is the surface you'll actually feel through your sheet, so the softness matters more than it might seem.
Hand tufting and side-stitching
The mattress is hand tufted with felt washers, which holds the fillings in place so they settle evenly rather than shifting into lumps. Two rows of hand side-stitching strengthen the border, giving you firmer support right to the edge.
Natural fillings
The fillings are all natural: British fleece wool, bamboo and cotton. Wool in particular regulates temperature well, drawing moisture away so you stay drier through the night.
Pocket springs
Each spring has 6 coils and is hand-nested in its own calico pocket. That means the springs respond to your body individually, so you get support where you press down without disturbing your partner.
Wool protector pad
The 5-foot size contains 1,326 vanadium steel springs, topped with a wool protector pad. The pad cushions the transition between springs and fillings, so you feel support rather than individual coils.
Wool-upholstered borders
The borders are upholstered in wool and include air vents and handles. The vents let the mattress breathe, while the handles make turning it a slightly less awkward job.

Key benefits
- Room to share in a modest footprint: The UK double gives two sleepers 67.5cm each while fitting bedrooms where a UK king would crowd the floor and squeeze out the furniture.
- Firmer edges for a shared bed: Two rows of hand side-stitching strengthen the border, which helps on a UK double because two people sharing tend to lie closer to the edges.
- Less disturbance from your partner: Each spring sits in its own calico pocket and moves independently, so on a shared 135cm surface you should feel less of your partner turning over.
- Cooler sleep side by side: Wool, bamboo and cotton fillings breathe well, which means less trapped warmth when two people share the closer quarters of a double.
- Easy to dress: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet are stocked everywhere, so finding bedding for this mattress takes no special hunting.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner in a typical UK bedroom and want a natural, springy feel without giving up floor space, or you're furnishing a guest room where visiting couples need a proper shared bed rather than a compromise.
Consider another size if...
One of you sprawls, or you'd both like more than 67.5cm each and your room measures at least 2.7m x 2.9m. We'd recommend the UK king instead, which gives 75cm each.

FAQ's
Is the Vispring Realm UK double wide enough for two people?
It gives each of you 67.5cm, which suits most couples who sleep fairly still. The pocket springs help here: each responds on its own, so a restless partner is less likely to wake you. If either of you sleeps starfish-style, the UK king adds 7.5cm each.
Will a Vispring Realm UK double fit with bedside tables on both sides?
In most rooms, yes. We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m giving comfortable space for bedside tables and a clear walkway. In a smaller second bedroom, measure the wall the headboard will sit against before you order.
How much bigger is the Vispring Realm in a UK king than a UK double?
The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double, and gives 7.5cm more each for two people sharing. It also needs more floor: we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m for a UK king, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double.
Is the Vispring Realm UK double long enough for tall sleepers?
At 190cm, the UK double is the same length as the UK single and UK small double. If either of you is tall enough for your feet to reach the end, the UK king is 10cm longer and may suit you better.
Is a Vispring Realm double a good choice for a guest room?
It suits a guest room that hosts couples, as the UK double fits most spare bedrooms while giving two visitors 67.5cm each. The medium tension suits most sleepers, which helps when you can't know your guests' preferences, although anyone after a very firm surface may find it a little forgiving.
