Simba is the leading bedding brand many know and love – us included. This is a bold statement, we know, especially because we love our sleep and strive for eight hours of uninterrupted bliss a night (strive being the key word).
We know there are a number of factors to help contribute to a good night's sleep, but a supportive mattress is up there – and Simba has delivered the goods. Trust us, we have tried a lot of sleep aids, and a poor quality mattress is, quite literally, back breaking.
There are numerous mattresses to shop at Simba, as well as pillows and other bedding, but the Hybrid Mattress gets our vote of confidence – not least because half a million have been sold, it's Simba's bestselling product, and it has over 128,000 glowing reviews, but we have tried/tested/slept like a baby on it.
The hybrid mattress offers medium-firm support for all sleepers, side, and back.Crafted using 1,900 Aerocoil micro springs, which work to provide support and relieve any pressure.The mattress also combines Simbatex foam technology for extra support, but to also offer better airflow, and help regulate body temperature too, and encased in a soft, breathable case. Available in single to super king sizes. BUY NOW FROM £649
We'll say it again, just in case it didn't sink in, but the Hybrid Mattress has sold over half a million! That's quite something, though it's unsurprising considering the high quality of this creation.
The Hybrid Mattress is what it says on the tin – it features five layers, including a spring coil and foam layer. Fitted with 1,900 Aerocoil micro springs, which provides the desired support we yearn for, plus it helps to align the body and relieve any pressure – a key factor for those with injuries or sore limbs.
Simba has also added a layer of Simbatex foam technology for added support and cushioning, though this material also provides a better airflow to help regulate the body temperature. Plus, the mattress is encased in a soft and breathable case, which can be removed and washed.
The mattress measures 25cm in depth, and boasts nine support zones, so if you are looking for a medium to firm mattress to alleviate any aches and pains, and support your body throughout the night, this delivers.
Simba has thought of everything, as the mattress comes with a 10-year warranty, so you can always enjoy a restful night's sleep. What's more, Simba offers a recycling scheme, and your old mattress will be collected by the team to save you the hard work. Shoppers can also purchase refurbished mattresses too – rest assured they have been tested, replaced and sanitised. More Trending
The Hybrid Mattress comes in an array of sizes, from single to Super King, as well as European bed sizes. Of course, the price varies depending on the size you opt for.
We have had our Simba mattress for five years, and it is still as plump as it was the day it arrived at my doorstep. There is just one thing to note – when your mattress arrives it will be rolled up, so you need to unravel it and allow the mattress to sit flat for a few hours to allow it to expand to its full capacity.
If you are in the market for matching pillows, Simba's Hybrid pillows are another firm must have (get it?). Alternatively, if you are looking for a mattress that is simpler in design to ease your way into Simba's Hybrid range, check out the Hybrid Essential. Alternatively, blow the budget on your dream sleep set-up with the Ultra Hybrid Mattress that boasts 11 layers, offers a medium to firm comfort, and features Fusion Cool Freshness for extra breathability.

Napoleonic prisoner of war camp buried under field bought from farmer
A Napoleonic prisoner of war camp buried under a field in Cambridgeshire has been bought by a trust with the intention of preserving it as a historic site. Norman Cross, the world's first purpose-built prisoner of war camp, was privately owned by a farmer, and has been bought by Nene Park Trust. Located near Peterborough, it contains the remains of around 1,770 French, Dutch and German soldiers captured in the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars fought between the French and other European nations. The trust says it wants to preserve the site and make it available to the public as a historic and green space. The camp now lies barely visible under a field used for arable crops and grazing. But it previously held a self-contained town, with barracks, offices, a hospital, school, marketplace and banking system, according to historian Paul Chamberlain. It operated from 1797 to 1814 and housed around 7,000 French prisoners. The location was chosen because it was far from the sea, making it difficult for any escapees to return to France. Prisoners made intricate models from bone, wood and straw to sell at the camp market and trade for food, tobacco and wine. Around 800 of these artefacts, which include miniature ships and chateaus, are on display at the nearby Peterborough Museum and Art Gallery. The trust received £200,000 of grant funding from Historic England and £50,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to buy the camp following years of negotiations. Its acquisition was fought for by resident Derek Lopez, who owned the Norman Cross Gallery near Yaxley and was an advocate of Peterborough's history. He died last year before seeing the sale complete. Duncan Wilson, chief executive of Historic England, said: 'The Norman Cross prisoner of war camp represents a pivotal moment in our shared European heritage that deserves to be better known.' Matthew Bradbury, chief executive of Nene Park Trust, said he was 'delighted' to take on the ownership of Norman Cross and wanted 'to share its green space and unique stories for generations to come'. Heritage minister Baroness Twycross said: 'Norman Cross represents a poignant chapter in our shared European story. 'The remarkable stories of those held in what was the first purpose-built prisoner of war camp should be remembered now and in the future. 'This partnership has secured this valuable heritage site for generations to come.'

Palace co-owner John Textor would sell shares for Europa League chance
The American, whose Eagle Football Group owns 43 per cent of Palace, has imperilled the club's chance of a first-ever European campaign owing to his involvement with Ligue 1 side Lyon, but is ready to offload his stake to his fellow co-owners in order to bring the saga to an end. UEFA does not allow clubs with the same ownership to compete in the same European competitions in a season. As well as his stake in Palace, the 59-year-old has a controlling stake in the French club, also via Eagle Football. However it is also reported that the European governing body does not consider Textor's influence at Selhurst Park to be decisive and is leaning towards allowing the club into the Europa League regardless. The PA news agency understands no formal decision is likely on Palace's fate until the end of June. Textor has previously spoken of his frustration at how little influence his stake entitles him to, over football matters. Victory for Oliver Glasner's side over Manchester City in last month's FA Cup final gave them their first major trophy and with it a first crack at Europe. However, Nottingham Forest have since written to UEFA to challenge Palace's Europa League spot and in the hope of taking their place. Forest's owner Evangelos Marinakis, who also owns Greek side Olympiacos, placed his shares in the club in a blind trust before the governing body's March 1 deadline, anticipating Nuno Espirito Santo's side's European qualification. At present Forest, who finished seventh in last season's Premier League, are set to enter the Conference League but would take Palace's Europa League place, should they be deemed ineligible.
