Small Double Beds

A UK small double bed (4ft) takes a 120 x 190 cm mattress. It is 15 cm narrower than a standard double, so it fits spare rooms, guest rooms and smaller bedrooms where a 4ft6 would crowd the floor, while still giving one adult plenty of room to stretch out. Every Eagle Bed small double frame is handmade to order in our own workshop in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire, and delivery is free across Great Britain (Northern Ireland £90).

Our bed sizes guide suggests a minimum wall width of 240 cm for a small double, which allows 60 cm of walking space either side. Want storage too?

Free fabric swatches are available, you can spread the cost with Klarna or Clearpay, and every frame carries a 5-year frame warranty.

What size is a UK small double bed?

A UK small double is 4ft wide and takes a 120 x 190 cm mattress. A standard double is 4ft6, or 135 x 190 cm.

Is a small double big enough for two people?

Two adults would have about 60 cm each, which many couples find tight. A small double is best for one adult, a teenager or a guest room; for two adults consider a double or king size bed.
