Soak & Sleep Bed Linen - Affordable Luxury

I don't know about you, but I love a little bit of luxury in my life. This is especially true when it comes to bed linen.  Nothing beats slipping between clean, fresh sheets at the end of a hard day, and when those sheets have a touch of opulence about them, the experience feels even better.  Soak & Sleep (the new name for DAPW) is a company that specialises in selling luxurious bed linen, towels, pillows, mattresses, duvets and bedspreads at affordable prices.  You get to enjoy the finer things in life without the hefty price tag.

I received a Tuxedo Striped Bed Linen Bundle in Stone, which consists of a king size duvet cover, fitted sheet and two pillowcases.

The bed linen is made from 400 thread count cotton satin, which is thick, silky soft and smooth.  The duvet cover and pillowcases have a lovely subtle tuxedo stripe pattern woven into the top fabric. It is a very classic design which both myself and Ian really like - it's neither too girlie nor too masculine. The material is very absorbent and breathable and feels absolutely lovely on the skin.  It has a lovely sheen to it which catches the light.

The 400 TC cotton is an excellent standard with a fine drape, silky feel and good strength.  It is quite an easy-care fabric, which gets softer with each wash and which isn't too tough to iron.  Higher thread counts result in even more luxurious fabrics, but they take more effort to iron. 

Soak & Sleep are so confident of their exclusive products that they guarantee them for 365 days and also offer a price promise against other similar products if you can find better for less.

The duvet has fabric tie-ups to secure the cover in place.  The pillowcases have attractive edging and come in an Oxford design.  The fitted sheet is deep and fits perfectly on my mattress without riding up or pinging off at the corners.  The finish on all products is superb.

Sleeping under the silky, satin feel cotton sheets is glorious.  They are so soft, but not at all slippy so they stay put really nicely, cocooning you in their satiny softness. They are a real touch of everyday luxury and are such great quality.  Definitely one of the nicest feeling cotton bed linen sets I have ever used!

I am totally loving snuggling up in my bed with my new sheets.  The classic stone colour suits my bedroom decor perfectly, creating a peaceful and relaxing environment. The duvet cover is reversible so you can opt for a plain pattern over the tuxedo stripes for a change.

The king size set I have cost £61.60 for the duvet cover, pillowcase and fitted sheet bundle (with free UK delivery).  You can find discounts of up to 50% across the site, so it's a great time to give your bedroom or bathroom a touch of opulence for the summer.
