Description
The Nolton: A fibre only mattress made with organic wool and horse tail with an organic cotton cover.
Our Nolton mattress is made using a traditional Italian technique. Layers of organic wool are built up around a core of high quality horse tail. The horse tail adds a springiness and has amazing qualities of elasticity, softness and tensile strength. Wool is the best temperature regulator for a mattress meaning that you never get hot and sticky in bed.
The cover of the mattress is hand stitched together, then the mattress is side stitched and tufted which gives the deep buttoned effect that’s characteristic of these mattresses.

How long will it take before my order is ready?
We only work to order and our usual lead times are 4-6 weeks for a mattress, 6-8 weeks for a bed and mattress.
What happens if I need to return my mattress?
We will do all we can to ensure that the mattress you receive is the one that you’ll be most comfortable on. If it turns out that this isn’t the case and you need something that is firmer or softer we will exchange, free of charge, if you let us know within the first fourteen days that you have an issue with the mattress.
3. Turning a fibre mattress
Fibre mattresses need to be turned very regularly when they’re new, every week is best until the fibre has all settled evenly. Once that’s happened this is a mattress that will last a lifetime because we can refurbish at any time. Suitable for all but the very heaviest.
4. Your mattress guarantee
In line with our green credentials, we make mattresses from sustainable materials. These materials are all organic and natural, and we expect our mattresses to last a long time. Our guarantee covers you against faulty workmanship or materials and we hope that you will look after the mattress by turning it regularly, hoovering it occasionally and stripping the bed every now and again to let the mattress breathe.
No guarantee can cover the way that a mattress is used, so please be careful if you need to move your mattress from one room to another and when you’re turning it. A pocket sprung mattress must not be folded or allowed to flop under its own weight.
The Nolton mattress has a statutory 1 year guarantee.
5. Re-cover, re-furbish, re-cycle
Far too many mattresses end up in landfill, approximately 100,000 a week just in the UK! Our mission is to do everything we can to make sure that none of our mattresses have to be thrown away. So what can we do?
1. We can re-cover. All our mattresses can be re-covered if you had an unfortunate spill on the cover. We can also replace the top layers of wool if necessary.
2. We can re-furbish. Both of our fibre mattresses can be completely re-made. The fibre is re-opened, fresh added if necessary, and the cover replaced.
3. We can re-cycle. When you buy a new Abaca mattress, we take your old Abaca mattress away to be broken down and re-cycled.
All Abaca mattresses are built to last, but there comes a time when even the best mattress struggles to give you the support you need. If you need a new Abaca mattress, we will give you a 10% discount as a loyal customer.
Each of the options above will be individually priced depending on the size of the mattress and where you are in the UK, please contact us for details.
Nolton inspiration
The broad sweep of St Bride’s Bay stretches from Skomer Island in the South to Ramsey Island in the North. This gem of a bay is home to several small villages. Nolton, a tiny farming community, and Nolton Haven, a quiet unspoilt bay.
A beach of sand and shingle with rock pools and cliffs on either side, Nolton Haven was once an export point for coal. A walk along the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path in either direction reveals the remnants of old coal workings.
Four great reasons to buy organic
Why you should consider going organic when you sleep:
-
Organic mattresses are chemical free
Conventional mattresses use a wide variety of chemicals during the manufacturing process and adhesives are often used to glue the layers of a mattress together. Not what you want to be sharing a bed with! Organic materials are produced without the use of harmful pesticides, herbicides and insecticides, and all the materials we use in our mattresses are either recyclable or biodegradable.
-
Organic mattresses are a healthy option
In many cases, allergies and problems with the respiratory tract are aggravated by elements found in conventionally made mattresses, especially memory foam. We are at our most vulnerable in bed and don’t spend as long anywhere else from day to day. Investing in a mattress that doesn’t introduce any of these foreign elements into our sleeping environment is a healthy option! People who buy an Abaca mattress often call us to say that symptoms like runny noses, sneezing, coughing, and skin irritations are either significantly reduced or eliminated within just a few weeks of sleeping on the mattress.
-
Organic mattresses help regulate your temperature
Man made materials make for very poor temperature regulation. Memory foam, for example, often becomes very hot at night, whereas the organic cotton and wool in every Abaca mattress wick moisture away from the body and help your body achieve restful sleep.
-
Organic mattresses are sustainable
As an organic company we are very conscious of our carbon footprint. Every year 7.5 million mattresses go into landfill in the UK alone, so producing mattresses using materials that can be recycled is really important.
