MATTRESSES
We complement our beds with a collection of mattresses that are all made by hand in Devon by our parent company, Naturalmat. The mattresses are a perfect fit for our beds, and cover all budgets.
All our mattresses offer great value for money, fantastic levels of comfort, combined with high levels of workmanship using the finest natural and organic materials.
“I would like to take the opportunity to say how absolutely fabulous our new bed is. As you know we spent a long time looking all over the place for both a bed and a mattress but eventually found Cornish Beds and with your help we finally chose the perfect bed for us and the perfect mattress to go with it.”
