The best bed linen to buy now

By Lucy Brooks on 17/6/2021

Invest in a good night's sleep and make home feel like a luxury hotel with our guide to the best bed linen to buy online, for all budgets.
Avoid sweaty polyester and stick to natural fibres to keep you cosy in winter and cool during hot summer nights. Soft, sustainable washed French linen has a supple feel and a relaxed, undone aesthetic. It improves with each wash and looks best a little rumpled. Egyptian cotton has a crisper, silkier feel and should be ironed for the ultimate smoothness. Both bring a little luxury to bedtime and work to regulate your temperature during the night.
Shop now to make the most of seasonal reductions and bag a bargain.
