Linen Bedding

"Bed linen" is a catch-all term for bedding, such a duvet covers, sheets and pillow cases. Confusingly, bed linen can refer to bedding made from any fabrics, including cotton and linen. To find out more specifically about linen bedding, please refer to our page All About Linen. 

Choosing your bed linen can be a daunting task that you want to get right, as great bed linen is designed to last! Firstly, make sure you choose the right size for your bed. For help on this, please refer to our guide on bedding sizes. Secondly, choose a style that you think will stand the test of time. All of our fabrics are specially chosen to complement a whole range of bedroom styles and designs, so whatever you choose will look great now and for years to come. 

We recommend washing your linen bedding on a warm wash (between 90-110 degrees Farenheit). This is the most-energy efficient temperature, while still ensuring that all dirt and bacteria is removed. For more tips on how to care for your linen bedding, please refer to our Care Guide. 

It is recommended to change your bed linen once or twice a fortnight. To find out why, please refer to our "How often should I change my linen bedding" section in our Care Guide. 

The best way to keep your linen smelling fresh is to wash it regularly, we recommend once to twice a fortnight. To find our more about how to wash and care for your bed linen, please refer to our Care Guide. 

Like all bedding, linen can wrinkle, especially if tumble dried without shaking out the creases beforehand. We love the naturally textured look of un-ironed linen, but for crease-free bedding, we recommend shaking out the creases when wet, then air drying on a line. For more tips on how to care for your linen, please refer to our Care Guide. 

There are many ways to fold and store your sheets, most of which come down to personal preference! We like to keep our sets together, either in the linen bag we provide with your purchase, or with the folded pillowcases and sheets tucked inside the folded duvet cover. As to folding a fitted sheet, if you come up with a foolproof way, please keep us posted! For more tips on how to store your linen, please refer to our Care Guide. 

The most energy-efficient way to dry sheets is on a line or clothes airer. Alternatively, you can tumble dry them. For more tips on how to care for your linen, please refer to our Care Guide.
