However, a good night’s sleep calls for luxury bedding that fits well. There are many different bed sizes*, and their measurements reflect their intended use. UK beds can be single, double, queen (also known as a small double), king size (for those who value space) and super king size (perfect for family movies!). The largest of them all is an emperor bed at 7ft x 7ft. European bed sizing is slightly bigger, so check your bed dimensions before buying super king size bedding from Europe (or even your local IKEA!) as it may not fit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBedding Types\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSuper king beds are wider than king size beds, so you’ll need super king bed linen to fully appreciate that delicious extra space. Attempting to fit a super king duvet into a king size duvet cover will result in a lumpy, bunched-up duvet. Likewise, putting a super king duvet on a king size duvet will lead to excess fabric either side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e When choosing bedding fabrics and fills, nothing beats a luxury \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tielleloveluxury.co.uk\/products\/european-goose-down-duvet\"\u003egoose down\u003c\/a\u003e or duck \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tielleloveluxury.co.uk\/collections\/duvets?page=3\"\u003efeather and down duvet\u003c\/a\u003e in down proof natural cotton casing.

Super king pillows are also larger than standard pillows to ensure there is no gap in-between and will need super king size pillowcases. Our pillows are generously cut to allow for a little shrinkage in the first wash. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen buying bed sheets, super king sheets can be flat or fitted; the important thing (as always) is that the linen fits. Many luxury hotels favour good quality 200-400 thread count flat sheets for their practicality, comfort and style.

By taking this into account you’ll be one snooze closer to buying the linen that’s right for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBedding fabric: Bed linen comes in a range of materials, including cotton, polycotton, linen and bamboo. Long staple, single ply cotton bedding is the most sought-after option due to its ability to deliver on comfort, practicality and style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThread count: A higher thread count can indicate a finer, silkier feeling fabric. Factors such as the quality of the yarn and finishing technique also influence the overall quality. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWeave: The most common bed linen weaves are percale and sateen and each offers a different feel and appearance. Percale is crisp and lightweight, whereas sateen has a smooth and lustrous finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesign and style: Consider the overall aesthetic of your bedroom. Classic white linen always looks fresh and elegant and can feel especially luxurious in a sateen weave. Conversely, bedding with patterns and \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tielleloveluxury.co.uk\/products\/california-dreaming-limited-edition-green-stripe-bedlinen-set\"\u003estripes\u003c\/a\u003e can create a more playful, whimsical look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrice and value: High quality pillows can last for three years, that’s 1,000 sleeps, and good quality bed linen can do the same – sometimes more. By investing in the right bedding, you'll enjoy even more of the health benefits of quality sleep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor more information, see the Tielle \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/tielleloveluxury.co.uk\/products\/hemstitch-200-thread-count-bedlinen-set\"\u003ebuyers’ guide\u003c\/a\u003e.

However, it is just one factor among many that influences quality. The yarn type and length, bedding weave, eg. whether it’s percale or sateen and finish all matter just as much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong staple, single ply cotton is renowned for its premium quality. Soft, strong and breathable, it creates a smoother, more luxurious sleep experience than other yarn types or polyester or poly-cotton blends, which are less breathable and can make you sweaty at night. It is also less likely to pill (aka bobble) and more likely to withstand wear and tear. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis superior cotton bedding in a 200tc to 600tc - anything higher will probably feel like tightly woven canvas, making it more difficult to wash and iron - is loved by top hotels who need to strike the balance between luxury and practicality.

Additionally, some mattresses are better for those with eczema or house dust mite allergies. The inner cavity of innerspring mattresses can create an incubator for house dust mites, and memory foam mattresses can lead to overheating which can increase skin dryness and irritation. Natural latex mattresses are resilient and resistant to house dust mites, mould and mildew, making them a better choice for those with eczema and house dust mite allergies.
