Small Single

Small Single Mattresses

Find a comfortable mattress for a compact bed with our range of small single mattresses at Bramley Bed Centre near Guildford. Also known as 2ft 6in mattresses, they are narrower than a standard single and are particularly useful in bedrooms where floor space is limited.

Small single mattresses are commonly used for children’s beds, guest beds, box rooms and other compact sleeping arrangements.

Standard UK Small Single Mattress Size

A standard UK small single mattress measures approximately 2ft 6in wide by 6ft 3in long, or 75cm by 190cm.

It is approximately 15cm narrower than a standard 3ft single mattress. Before ordering, measure the internal dimensions of the bed frame or check the size label on the existing mattress.

Some specialist beds use non-standard dimensions, so do not rely solely on descriptions such as “narrow single” or “compact single.”

Mattresses for Compact Bedrooms

A small single mattress allows more floor space to remain available for storage, furniture and movement around the room. It can be a practical choice for box rooms, smaller children’s bedrooms and narrow guest rooms.

Although the width is compact, you can still choose from a range of mattress constructions and comfort levels.

Choose the Right Mattress Type

Depending on the model, available options may include:

• Pocket-sprung mattresses
• Traditional coil-sprung mattresses
• Memory-foam mattresses
• Natural-latex mattresses
• Hybrid mattresses
• Natural-filling mattresses
• Pillow-top mattresses

The right choice will depend on the intended sleeper, sleeping position, preferred comfort and how frequently the bed will be used.

Mattresses for Children’s and Specialist Beds

Small single mattresses are sometimes used with bunk beds, cabin beds, high sleepers and other space-saving frames.

If the mattress is intended for one of these beds, check the manufacturer’s maximum mattress depth. A mattress that is too deep may interfere with safety rails or other parts of the bed frame.

Our experienced team can help you check the size, depth and suitability of the available mattresses.
