meggles Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I am sure I once saw a single duvet cover with a single sheet attached as an alternative to sleeping bags for single beds in a motorhome or caravan Does anyone know of such a thing and where I can buy these please? Many thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randonneur Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I think someone on here made their own. We use single Feather and Down duvets from Dunelm on our singles in the van. Great normally but we have just come back from South of France and they were a bit too hot, should have taken 2 single sheets with us. On the mattress we use jersey stretch sheets, easy to put on. There are some specially made, I think they are Raskelf or Jonic can't remember which, but they have a good reputation but are pricey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthur49 Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 We use Raskelf Duvalay - memory foam base/mattress with duvet top. Pretty pricey at £100 each (single) but we find them excellent. http://www.raskelf.com/product_range.php?range_id=41 Arthur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 We stopped using sleeping bags many years ago, we have used duvets with sheets under as you would on a 'normal' bed, for tenting caravaning and motorhoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
747 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 I got an email this morning from MailLife, this is the online version of an offer I took up from the Daily Mail (and no, I am not a Daily Mail reader :$ ), I did a google for something and they had it at a very good price. Anyway, they have some very good offers on top quality duvets, including a 2 tier type, 9 tog + 4.5 tog. They are genuine duck down and I know that these are warm in winter and cool in Summer. I deleted the email so you just need to do a google on MailLife. They are on offer for half the normal price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest machra Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Although we use a double we are in the process of changing the van and we plan to use the new van as single beds, and will use our duvet method using singles. So at the moment we take an All Season duvet. One is 9.5 tog the other is 3.5 tog. These are both fitted with covers. One duvet goes on the van bed as a sheet the other you sleep under. The benefit we find is that at any one time we have a warm and a cool cover, so if weather is hot lie on the 9.5 tog and sleep under the 3.5. If weather is cold sleep on the 3.5 and lie under te 9.5. Downside is that you have to have 2x duvets with covers. Take this a stage further, which we intend to with the new van, and you use 4x single duvets - 2x each.
