Why we love Egyptian cotton bedding

Our Egyptian cotton bedding is light and breathable with a soothing drape which feels wonderfully comfortable against your skin. The sateen weave leaves greater thread surface exposed giving a silky-soft feel and slightly lustrous appearance. We’ve selected 600 thread count as it’s softer, more durable and delivers indulgent comfort.

Our 100% Egyptian cotton bedding comes with the authentic Egyptian cotton trademark so you can be sure that it really is pure Egyptian cotton.

The finer threads of the Egyptian cotton and the silky softness of the sateen weave gives our bed linen an oh-so-soothing feel and drape.

Unlike other cotton bed linens, Egyptian cotton becomes more comfortable with every sleep and every wash. Hello sweet dreams...

Breathable bed linen that provides comfort in every thread all year round.

Frequently asked questions

View all

A flat sheet lies on top of the mattress and requires tucking in at the sides and base, while a fitted sheet has elasticated corners to hold it in place. Some people use both for a hotel-style layered bed, so the fitted sheet will be on top of the mattress and the flat sheet will be used between you and your duvet. See our Flat sheets vs fitted sheets guide.

Yes, many people prefer using a flat sheet instead of a fitted sheet for ease of folding and classic bed styling. If you want that high end hotel look and feel, then use two flat sheets for your bed. Hotels use one flat sheet as the bottom sheet as it is easier to iron and fold underneath the mattress without any creases. Get our top tips on how to Get that luxury hotel bed feel at home.

Sateen sheets feel smooth and slightly silky, while percale offers a crisp, matte finish. The choice depends on whether you prefer a hotel-smooth or cool-crisp feel. Read our sateen cotton sheets guide and our percale cotton sheets guide.

For a pristine look, iron your Egyptian cotton flat sheet while slightly damp. For a relaxed aesthetic, skip the ironing, they’ll still feel luxurious. Our guide: How to clean & care for your Egyptian cotton flat sheet.

Yes, you can use a flat sheet as an extra layer between you and your duvet or blanket, keeping your duvet cover cleaner for longer and providing a layer than can be easily washed more frequently if required. Using a flat sheet as a top sheet can also be useful during warmer weather if you only want one lightweight covering. Find out more: What is a top sheet and do you need one?
