Layer Details
Wool protector pad
A wool protector pad sits at the surface for extra comfort. It adds a soft, breathable first point of contact before you reach the fillings beneath.
Natural fillings
All natural fillings, including Platinum Certified British fleece wool and cotton. Wool regulates temperature and wicks moisture, which means a drier, more even sleeping climate through the night.
Springs
Six-coil vanadium steel springs, hand nested in calico, with 1,254 in the King size. Nesting the springs in calico pockets lets each one compress independently, so support follows the curve of your body.

Key benefits
- Room to share without crowding the room: At 135 x 190cm the UK double gives each partner 67.5cm, while leaving floor space a larger bed would swallow.
- Springs that respond to each of you: The six-coil springs are hand nested in calico pockets, which means the spring under one partner compresses individually rather than the whole surface moving as one unit.
- Cooler for two bodies side by side: Two people generate more heat than one, so the British fleece wool and cotton fillings help by wicking moisture and keeping the sleeping climate drier through the night.
- A soft feel for lighter couples: If you and your partner both sleep on your sides and are fairly light, the soft tension lets shoulders and hips settle in comfortably.
- Easy to dress: Double sheets and a 200 x 200cm double duvet fit the UK double, and both are simple to find.
This size suits you if...
You share the bed with a partner who is also a lighter sleeper or side sleeper, and your bedroom meets our suggested minimum of 2.6m x 2.8m. It also fits a guest room where visiting couples stay a night or two, or a second bedroom that must also hold a wardrobe and drawers.
Consider another size if...
You and your partner regularly bump elbows, or one of you is tall enough to find the length tight. The UK king would suit you better, though allow at least 2.7m x 2.9m.

FAQ's
Is the Vispring soft UK double comfortable for two people sharing?
For lighter couples, yes. The UK double gives you 67.5cm each, and the soft tension suits side sleepers who like to sink in slightly. If one of you is heavier or sleeps on your front, that partner may sink too far, and the narrower personal space leaves less room to shift away from the dip.
Will a Vispring UK double fit a bedroom with bedside tables on both sides?
We suggest at least 2.6m x 2.8m for a UK double, with around 3m x 3m being the comfortable norm. At the minimum you can usually fit a small table each side, though the walkway around the foot of the bed will be snug. Measure your furniture before you commit.
Vispring UK double vs UK king: how much extra space do you get?
The UK king is 15cm wider and 10cm longer than the UK double. Shared between two, the UK double gives you 7.5cm less each. The UK king also needs a larger room: we suggest at least 2.7m x 2.9m, against 2.6m x 2.8m for the UK double.
What size is the Vispring Traditional Soft in a UK double in feet?
The UK double measures 4ft 6in x 6ft 3in, which is 135 x 190cm. It is the same length as the UK single and UK small double, so taller sleepers gain no extra length until the UK king.
Is a soft Vispring UK double a good choice for a guest room?
It can be, if the people who stay are mostly lighter sleepers who like a cushioned feel. The UK double sleeps a visiting couple without taking over a smaller spare room. Heavier guests or front sleepers may find the soft tension gives too little support, so think about who usually stays with you.
