Large & Extra Long Beds Explained

Standard UK bed sizes are single, double, king and super king, but many taller people find standard lengths too short and many couples simply want more room.

We also make larger sizes such as Eastern King, Emperor and Caesar beds, plus longer lengths for taller customers.

Extra Long Beds for Tall People

Standard UK mattresses can feel too short for taller sleepers.

If your feet hang over the edge of the bed, most taller customers immediately notice the difference on a longer mattress. Our standard lengths range from 200cm to 220cm, with much longer lengths available.

See our bed and mattress length guide, 210cm beds and mattresses and 220cm beds and mattresses.

Oversized Bed Sizes

Larger beds are especially popular with:

  • Taller sleepers
  • Couples wanting more space
  • Families sharing the bed
  • Large bedrooms
  • Pet owners

Eastern King beds offer extra width, Emperor beds give couples far more space than a standard king size, and Caesar beds are about as large as most UK bedrooms can comfortably take.

UK vs US Bed Sizes

Some customers need to replace imported US mattresses or beds, while others simply want more room than a standard UK king size offers. UK and US bed sizes can be confusing because the names often sound similar, even when the dimensions are different.

For example, a California King is usually longer, while an Eastern King is wider and closer to what most Americans would call a king size.

See our US bed size guide for a full comparison.

Custom Bed Sizes

If you cannot find the exact size you need, we can usually make it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Bed Sizes

What is the largest bed size you offer?

One of the largest bed sizes available in the UK is the Caesar size bed, measuring approximately 245cm x 220cm (8ft x 7ft3). We also offer Emperor and Eastern King sizes for customers wanting more room to spread out than a standard king or super king.

What size is an emperor bed?

A standard Emperor bed is typically 215cm x 215cm (7ft x 7ft). We also offer longer Emperor sizes including 200cm, 205cm and 220cm lengths for taller people who need extra legroom.

What is an Eastern King?

An Eastern King is an oversized bed measuring approximately 200cm x 200cm (6ft6 x 6ft6). It provides more width than a standard UK super king and is based on popular American-style bed dimensions.

Are California King beds longer?

Yes. A California King bed is designed to give extra length compared with many standard bed sizes, making it popular with taller people. Our California King size measures approximately 180cm x 215cm (6ft x 7ft).

What bed size is best for tall people?

Most taller customers are more comfortable on a mattress that is at least 200cm long, with many customers choosing 215cm or 220cm long beds so their feet are no longer near the edge of the mattress. Extra-long single, king, super king and Emperor sizes are especially popular for taller sleepers.

Can you buy custom size mattresses?

Yes. We manufacture custom size mattresses and beds in almost any width or length. This is useful for unusual room layouts, imported bed frames, taller people or customers who want completely bespoke dimensions.
