Finally sorted it by looking at the gui.json file in the calibre preferences folder (I'm on macos) and manually editing this file so that the lines:

cover_browser_splitter_horizontal_state": [
true,
and
cover_browser_splitter_vertical_state": [
true,
are changed to false.

For some reason this file doesn't appear to be updating these changes automatically.. Perhaps @Kovidgoyal could look at this ?
The item that worked for me was:
tag_browser_splitter_horizontal_state": [
false,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
