A wool mattress represents the ultimate in natural luxury. For centuries, wool has been the gold standard for bedding due to its incredible resilience and its ability to manage moisture. Our collection of wool mattresses combines these traditional benefits with modern Pocket spring technology. The result is a sleep surface that is soft to the touch, remarkably supportive, and environmentally conscious.

Unlike synthetic materials, wool is a highly active fibre that reacts to changes in your body temperature. This makes a wool mattress a fantastic investment for year round comfort. Every piece in our collection is handcrafted by skilled artisans who understand how to layer this natural material to provide a plush, breathable, and deeply restful sleeping environment.

The benefits of natural wool upholstery

Superior temperature regulation

Wool is nature's own climate control system, making it one of the most versatile fillings for a mattress.

  • Cool in summer and warm in winter: Wool fibres have a natural crimp that creates tiny pockets of air. This provides insulation during the colder months while allowing heat to escape when the temperature rises.
  • Moisture wicking properties: Wool can absorb a significant amount of moisture without feeling damp. This helps to keep your sleeping environment dry and comfortable, which is essential for a deep and uninterrupted sleep.

Sustainable and hypoallergenic

For those who prioritise a healthy and eco-friendly home, wool is an ideal choice.

  • Naturally fire resistant: Wool is naturally flame retardant, meaning it does not require the same level of chemical treatments as many synthetic mattresses.
  • Resistance to allergens: Wool is naturally resistant to dust mites and mould. This makes a wool filled Double mattress or King size mattress an excellent option for those with asthma or allergies.

Long lasting resilience

Wool is famous for its ability to spring back into shape, ensuring your mattress stays comfortable for years.

  • Natural elasticity: The fibres can be bent thousands of times without breaking, which helps the mattress maintain its loft and prevent the "dipping" often found in lower quality materials.
  • Hand finished durability: We secure our wool layers using traditional hand tufting. This process ensures the natural fillings stay perfectly in place, providing a consistent level of comfort across the entire mattress surface.

How do I choose the right mattress firmness?
Here are some factors to consider when determining the ideal firmness level for your mattress: Sleeping Position: Your preferred sleeping position can influence the ideal firmness level of your mattress. Body Weight: Your body weight can affect how much pressure you exert on the mattress and how deeply you sink into it. Personal Preference: Ultimately, the firmness level of your mattress should align with your personal comfort preferences. Some people prefer the plush feel of a softer mattress, while others prefer the firm support of a firmer mattress. Health Conditions: Certain health conditions, such as chronic pain or arthritis, may influence your choice of mattress firmness. In such cases, it's essential to consult with a healthcare professional for personalised recommendations.
Do mattresses come with a sleep trial?
Yes, typically they come with a sleep trial period, allowing you to try out the mattress in the comfort of your own home before making a final decision. During the sleep trial period, you have the opportunity to sleep on the mattress and determine if it meets your comfort and support needs. If, for any reason, you are not satisfied with the mattress during the sleep trial period, you may be eligible to return it for a full refund or exchange, subject to the terms and conditions of the sleep trial policy. This allows you to make an informed decision about your mattress purchase without the risk of being stuck with a mattress that doesn't meet your needs. It's essential to review the specific terms and duration of the sleep trial period for the mattress you are interested in, as these details may vary depending on the model and promotional offers available at the time of purchase. Additionally, be sure to follow any instructions regarding the return process to ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience.
How do I care for my mattress?
Here are some general care and maintenance tips: Use a Mattress Protector: Consider using a mattress protector to help prevent spills, stains, and dust mites from penetrating the mattress. A waterproof or water-resistant mattress protector can provide an additional layer of protection against accidents and spills. Keep the Mattress Clean: Vacuum your mattress periodically to remove dust, debris, and allergens that can accumulate over time. Use a handheld vacuum with an upholstery attachment to gently vacuum the surface of the mattress. Spot Clean Stains: If spills or stains occur, spot clean the affected area immediately with a mild detergent and water. Blot the stain with a clean cloth or sponge, taking care not to saturate the mattress. Allow the mattress to air dry thoroughly before replacing the bedding. By following these care and maintenance tips, you can help prolong the life of your mattress and enjoy a comfortable and supportive sleep surface for years to come.
Are mattresses compatible with adjustable bed frames?
Yes, many are compatible with adjustable bed frames, allowing you to customise your sleep position for optimal comfort and support. Adjustable bed frames, also known as power bases or adjustable bases, allow you to elevate or recline different parts of the mattress to achieve your desired sleeping position. When using a mattress with an adjustable bed frame, it's essential to follow any guidelines or recommendations provided by the mattress manufacturer to ensure proper support and functionality. Additionally, be sure to check the warranty terms and conditions to confirm that using the mattress with an adjustable bed frame does not void the warranty coverage.
