Building a bedroom that feels like a home from home can be difficult, especially with so many items you could take with you.

A bedding set is an easy way to get your uni bedroom must-haves in one go. Our bedding sets include:

• A duvet cover
• A fitted sheet
• A pillow case (our bedding sets include one pillow case in Single sets and two pillow cases in larger bedding sets)

When you buy a bedding set from us, from the first bedtime your sleep improves from the amazing qualities of our bamboo fabric. The naturally temperature regulating, anti-allergy and sustainable material makes switching off after a long day of lectures that little bit easier.

Two bedding sets is a good place to start. One sitting pretty on your bed while the other is in the wash, or on standby. 

A backup bedding set means you won’t have to wait to clean and dry items when you need to freshen things up. If you accidentally spill something on your sheets, you’ve got a replacement ready to go.

That depends on the size of your mattress. 

What’s in my halls? is an excellent site for checking mattress dimensions. Once you have these measurements you can start kitting out your uni bedroom with confidence.

You can find the size of uni bedding essentials on our product description pages, dimensions are given in centimetres next to the size name before you add an item to your basket.

No. Single is the most common-sized bed in UK halls of residence but rooms come with other sized mattresses too. The most common size after a standard single is a Small Double, which some retailers don’t stock. 

Luckily for you, our fitted sheets, mattress toppers and mattress protectors come in UK Small Double size and bring all the natural benefits of bamboo.

Once you have the measurements of your mattress, finding a topper that fits is simple. Our toppers come with adjustable elastic straps that fit all kinds of mattresses and an anti-slip layer to prevent them sliding.

Both our mattress toppers are available as Small Doubles, so there’s plenty of size options to choose from.

A mattress topper is useful in university halls if you’d like to keep your mattress in the best possible condition, when you move out at the end of the year.

Remember, a mattress protector and mattress topper do different jobs. A protector is designed to help protect the mattress, while a topper adds another layer of comfort and support. If you're setting up a bed from scratch, both can be useful additions.

Some halls of residence might provide duvets, some might not. Check your accommodation inventory before making a purchase to avoid doubling up on duvets and starting an avoidable return process.

If you bring your own duvet, think about the size and warmth you’ll want at different times of year. Our duvets include a year-round and summer duvet, to help you drift off whatever the weather.

Bed linen should be washed every one to two weeks but the most important thing is creating a routine that works around your student life.

Having two bedding sets makes it easier to stay on top of washing as you can put one set in the machine while the other dresses the bed. 

Our 100% Bamboo Bedding and other bedding sets get softer with every wash. More laundry days = more luxurious lie-ins.

The short answer is yes. Although you can put all our bamboo bedding sets in the dryer, we recommend drying your duvet covers, fitted sheets and pillow cases the natural way. Not only will it save you money on energy bills but it’s better for the planet too.

If you do have to use a tumble dryer choose as low a setting as possible to prevent any shrinking and keep the fabric intact.
