If you have special guests coming, if it's for one night or a week. You’ll want them to feel right at home. Make the room as comfortable as possible, creating a boutique piece of luxury that anyone will be jealous of. You want to make your guests feel as comfortable as possible. Everyone sleeps differently and some like to be super warm and cosy while some may like a lighter duvet with more air flow. One of the biggest things to remember when creating the perfect Guest room is layers. Creating a warm cosy bed is a must but you will need to give your guests the option to cool off, Here at the Linen we recommend a 5 layer bed. Wow I know 5 layers seems a lot, but here's why. 

Starting off with a topper, these are a game changer once you feel your body sink into one of these toppers you'll never look back. A Mattress Topper will transform your night's sleep forever! Why sleep on an unyielding mattress when you could sleep on a fluffy cloud? A mattress topper will add a touch of luxury to a new mattress and will dramatically revive an old one! Following on from a mattress topper we recommend a high quality thick protector. After investing in a good topper the last thing you want is to stain or damage it. A good quality mattress protector should be considered a bedding essential for every bed in your home and we stock them in nearly all our specialist sizes. Our quilted mattress protectors will not only protect your mattress and topper from spillages and stains, they will make your bed much warmer than it would otherwise be, will make your bed look and feel much more luxurious and will hugely extend the life of your mattress and topper. If allergies are a problem, then consider an encased mattress protector that seals off your mattress, preventing nasties from getting into and out of your mattress. 

On top of this we offer a wide range of luxurious fitted sheet that are smooth to the skin. Our extra deep fitted bed sheets are the ultimate in comfort and style. All our fitted sheets have a depth of 36cm, making them the perfect choice for a deep mattress, but as we've elasticated them all the way around, they'll fit snug on nearly any thickness (plus it makes popping them on a doodle!). Our fitted sheets also have pillowcases to match and mix well with any of our delightful bed linen designs.

Once you have the base sorted it will be like laying a cloud of marshmallows, we will move on to the duvet of choice. It's a tricky one because you would never want your guests to be too cold, but being too warm can be a deal breaker too. We recommend  a 10.5 tog duvet, this isn't too warm yet too cold. 10.5 tog duvets are a good bet as a duvet for most of the year. The most common duvet tog you'll find is the 10.5 tog duvet these should be warm enough all year-round if you've got a centrally heated house. Now as you'll remember we talked about how layers are key well if your guests are coming during the winter months you can add super soft cosy throws to trap in the heat, or even a high thread count duvet cover. We Offer a fantastic range of high quality High Tread Count Bed Linen.

Carrying on with the layers, placing a flat sheet in between the fitted sheet and duvet is a perfect layer for your guests in case they get a little too warm in bed. Turning the flat sheet back over the duvet at the top of the bed showing off the decorative hem can really finish the bed off nicely. During the night the guest can push the duvet down slightly and use the flat sheet if they get too warm. 

When it comes to pillows it can be a tricky one, some people like a ultra soft pillow while others may go for a firmer more supportive pillow. Here at the Linen Cupboard we recommend 4 pillows not only for the decorative appeal but it allows your guest to have a choice of pillow. you should leave two supportive/ firm pillows and two soft pillow this way your guests will use the pillow that best suits them. And finally dress your bed will cushions and a throw to create a bedroom that oozes luxury and style. 

A Bed That Will Send Them Off To Sleep In Seconds
