Luxury Beach Towels

A duvet cover is the removable case that protects your duvet, while a duvet set usually pairs a cover with matching pillowcases. We sell our duvet covers and pillowcases separately, so you can choose the exact sizes and number of pillowcases you need to build your own luxury bedding set. Add matching cotton pillowcases, deep fitted sheets and flat sheets for a complete, coordinated bed.

It comes down to how you like your bed to feel. Sateen is woven with more yarn on the surface, giving a smooth, soft finish with a subtle sheen that feels warmer and is easier to iron, which is why boutique hotels favour it. Percale has a one-over, one-under weave that feels crisp, cool and matt, making it ideal for warm sleepers. Try our Brooklyn 300TC cotton sateen duvet cover or the Vermont 200TC organic cotton percale duvet cover, or read our guide to choosing your bed linen.

Not always. Thread count is the number of threads woven into a square inch of fabric, but the quality of the cotton matters more. A better fibre at a lower thread count will feel softer and last longer than a poorer fibre at a higher one. Our 300 thread count Egyptian cotton sateen is woven from a slightly thicker yarn than you usually find on the high street, so it feels substantial and stands up well to regular washing.

Choose your duvet cover to match your duvet rather than your mattress. Our standard sizes are single (140 x 200cm), double (200 x 200cm), king (230 x 220cm), super king (260 x 220cm) and emperor (290 x 235cm). If you have a king size bed and would like a more generous drape over the sides, a super king duvet and cover is a good option. Check each product for available sizes and see our size guide.

Both make beautiful bedding, so choose based on feel and values. Egyptian cotton is known for its long fibres, which spin into a smooth, strong yarn with a soft handle, as in our 300TC sateen ranges. Organic cotton is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, and our organic cotton is GOTS approved. Learn more on our materials and certifications page.

Yes. Our Lexington 300TC sateen bedding has a twin row of satin stitch embroidery in a contrasting colour, including olive green and white, navy and white, black, pale blue, pale pink, fuchsia pink, silver grey and latte, as well as an all-white version. Matching Oxford pillowcases are available with the same two-line detail, so you can mix colours across the bed.

Our cotton duvet covers are machine washable, but always follow the care label on each product. Use a mild detergent, avoid overloading the drum and remove the cover promptly to reduce creasing. Sateen is easier to iron than percale, while percale looks its crispest when ironed slightly damp. Our guide to caring for your bed linen has more tips.
