Unlike memory foam, our wool mattresses naturally regulate temperature, helping you to get a restful night’s sleep. And because Herdwick wool is hypo-allergenic, a herdy®sleep mattress can help you achieve a healthy, natural sleep.Packing up to 6,000 bespoke pocket springs into each mattress allows the sleep surface to adjust perfectly to support every part of your body. By using our unique pocket springs topped with soft, breathable wool, herdy®sleep offers a luxury mattress that helps you to sleep naturally.

responsibly made
being responsible
We’ve chosen to work directly with Herdwick sheep farmers, using only fairly priced and sustainably farmed wool in our luxury mattresses. By using British reared wool, we’re helping to preserve the Herdwick breed and support British agriculture in a meaningful and sustainable way.We also manufacture our mattresses right here in the UK. Our expert mattress makers coil our herdy®sleep pocket springs in-house, before hand-tufting and taping each mattress to our special sleep surface. This allows us to support British manufacturing and preserve traditional skills, for years to come.

Without the Herdwick sheep, there would be no herdy®sleep, which is why these lovable sheep have always had a special place in our hearts. We’ve always championed the Lakes’ most recognisable residents and we pay our Herdwick farmers a fair price for their fleeces.This stops fleeces being thrown away or left unused, helping farmers to keep heritage sheep on the Fells where they belong. Wool is a renewable and sustainable source of cosy, breathable, and hypo-allergenic mattress filling, so between herdy®sleep and the Fell farmers of the Lakes, we’ve got a mattress made in heaven.

Inside the herdy®sleep workshop, the most skilled people in the industry create each mattress from start to finish. The spring designers design and shape every pocket spring, drawing the wire from steel rods themselves.Meanwhile the weavers create the unique chemical-free mattress fabric, which is naturally flame retardant and breathable. Combining these with the wool filling produced by the blenders, the tufters and stitchers secure the mattress filling and construct the mattress by hand to ensure quality and comfort for years to come.
Every step of the process is constantly assessed by the lab team, who make sure that every element of every mattress is perfect. It’s the quality craftsmanship offered by the team, and insistence upon perfection that makes every handmade herdy®sleep mattress the perfect way to wake up with a smile.
