the Inferno

The Comparative mattress for your
SIZE will cost £300 to £660

We went on the hunt for a really good, well made, comfortable, long-lasting mattress that didn’t break the bank. We found it in rural Wiltshire. This mattress represents exceptional value. Set on an open coil spring system it is generously upholstered with lots of layers of comfy stuff, this may be our standard mattress, but it's a very high standard.

The Superlative mattress for your
SIZE will cost £540 to £900

Mattress salesmen love to blind you with mattress guff: they love to harp on about “individual pocket springs”, how they mould to your contours, and how choosing a mattress will be the most important decision you ever make since you are to spend at least a third of your life in bed. Well, this mattress has got fourteen hundred individually pocketed springs, which, take it from us, is a hell of a lot. It has many layers of comfy upholstery, and if you were to spend a third of the rest of your life atop it, we are confident you would say you had had a grand life!

The Tops mattress for your
SIZE will cost £780 to £1,140

Not only is there a base that contains one thousand four hundred pocketed springs, there is another layer, about 5cm high, that contains another thousand mini-springs, and further upholstery. This makes it deep, and almost problematically comfortable. We have one at home, and whenever guests sleep on it, they say that they have never had more relaxing, sounder sleep – they return home, refreshed, but sad to revisit their own inadequate mattress.

The Exmoor Organic mattress for your
SIZE will cost £1,140 to £2,220

We found our organic mattresses on a jolly trip to the West Country. Mark, sitting in a cloud of angora mohair, regaled us with his desire to create the world’s most comfortable, ethically sourced mattresses. Honestly, they are things of rare beauty (tough to say, we accept, for a mattress), and if you were to cut into them (which we recommend you don’t) you would find all manner of gorgeousness within. It has at its core a layer of a zillion pocketed springs – it is then upholstered organic coconut husk, organic Indian latex, organic, super fluff, West Country lambswool – everything, bar the springs is 100% natural. All this creates a completely breathable, absurdly comfy, fragrant, anti-allergenic, guilt-free deep green slumber.

The Dartmoor Organic mattress for your
SIZE will cost £1,620 to £3,060

This is the ultimate in green sleep technology – no nasty metal-ness, no springs, just layer upon layer of beautiful squishy breathable organicness. The springs are replaced by the natural bounce of the organic coconut husk – no, it’s not as springy, of course not, but it soft and really lovely. Cashmere, cotton, mohair, lambswool (washed in the local River Dart) – all organic, all yumbles. The mattress is covered in a quilted unbleached 100% cotton cover that can be removed and laundered.
