A 'fairytale cottagecore' bedspread now available for just £28 is receiving rave reviews from shoppers who say it makes their bed look beautiful. The Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread from Dusk is a standout piece in the cottagecore trend that has become one of 2026's most beloved homeware styles.
Cottagecore Trend Embraces Lived-In Spaces
Cottagecore has moved beyond whiter, more sterile looks, towards spaces that feel lived-in, loved, and more personal. This style is a complete turn away from sleek minimalism and is committed to making a home feel like it has a 'heartbeat'. However, achieving a cottagecore aesthetic does not require repainting rooms or making expensive permanent changes. A simple change in bedding can have a huge impact on your room, and Dusk's bedspread does exactly that.
Product Details and Design
Priced at £28, the Bordeaux Contrast Floral Matelasse Bedspread features a mustard base with a contrasting white floral pattern that is perfect for spring and summer. The matelassé weave gives it a tactile finish and a lightweight feel, making it ideal for layering across seasons. Generously sized at 250x260cm, this bedspread is designed to drape beautifully across a king or super king bed, offering full coverage with an elegant drop on either side. On a double bed, it creates a more relaxed, oversized look.
Style it over crisp white bedding to let the pattern pop, or complete the look with the matching cushion for an effortlessly put-together finish. For comparison, Dunelm's Pippa Quilted Bedspread is available in five colours for £45, while Next's Sage Green Crinkle Textured Bedspread costs between £35 and £65 depending on size.
Customer Reviews Praise Quality and Value
The bedspread has accumulated glowing reviews from satisfied shoppers. One customer said: 'Very good quality, lovely colour. Value for money.' Another wrote: 'I have been looking for some time for a colour match for my duvet cover. When I saw this I had no hesitation in buying it. I also purchased the cushion covers to match. My bed looks beautiful.'
A third reviewer commented: 'Since moving to my new home and having more rooms to furnish I was delighted to find Dusk. Really amazing quality at affordable prices. The bedspread and cushion covers are absolutely stunning. Soft material and so pretty. I'm very happy, thank you.'
Considerations Before Purchase
It is important to note that the bedspread is made from a polyester and cotton blend. While this makes it soft, durable, and easy to wash, it has some drawbacks. This fabric can be prone to pilling over time, creating tiny balls of tangled fuzz. It also traps heat, making it perfect for colder rooms but less suitable during warm weather.
Nevertheless, another delighted shopper added: 'Just love this. I keep walking in to my bedroom and smiling. I'm so very happy with the throw and cushions.' A five-star review reads: 'I love this bedspread and it goes well with the colour of my bedroom décor. Was a good price and is good quality.'
