European Single Mattresses
There’s nothing worse than sleeping on a mattress that’s too short. When you go to sleep, you want every inch of your body to be comfortable. If you’re too tall for the bed, a good night’s sleep is off the cards. Choose a European single mattress and you’ll sleep well every night. European single mattresses are slightly longer than UK single mattresses, coming in at 90 x 200cm or 35 x 78 inches. So if you’re looking for a bed where your feet won’t dangle off the edge, this size mattress is your best bet.
What size is a European single mattress?

What types of European single mattresses are available?
Our European single mattresses are available in the following types:
European single pocket spring mattresses
Consisting of hundreds of individual springs wrapped in a 'pocket' of fabric, a European single pocket spring mattress offers high levels of support. The springs work independently of each other, allowing them to adapt to movement and give support to high-pressure areas.
European single open coil spring mattresses
A European single open coil spring mattress features a structure of interconnected springs that offer plenty of support and evenly distribute weight across the surface. They are an affordable option available in various firmness ratings.
European single memory foam mattresses
Those looking for custom support should consider a European single memory foam mattress. NASA originally invented memory foam for astronauts, and it contours to your exact body shape using body heat. It bounces back to its original shape in the morning!
European single orthopaedic mattresses
Sleep can be painful for those suffering from back or joint issues, which is where a European single orthopaedic mattress can help. These mattresses are designed to be slightly firmer to give plenty of support to your joints and help give you restful and hopefully pain-free sleep!

Who are European single mattresses suitable for?
Since European single mattresses are longer than standard UK mattresses, they are ideal for growing teenagers and tall adults. Their length makes them an excellent choice for a guest bedroom, as you can easily accommodate a wide range of guests!
Can you use a European single mattress on a UK single bed?
Technically, yes, but you'll find that your European single mattress will hang over the edge of the bed. This can be a safety hazard, as people could bump into it, or it could potentially slide off the bed. As such, we'd recommend only using a Euro single mattress on a European single bed!
Where can I buy European single bedding?
European single bedding isn't commonly found in UK stores, as our most common size is the UK single, which is shorter. As such, you'll likely need to search online for the right bedding for your mattress!
