Dunelm's cosy fleece duvet set from £20 keeps shoppers in bed

Dunelm has launched a new fleece bedding set in time for autumn, with the Bellamere Burnout Fleece Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set priced from £20 for a single size and rising to £35 for a super kingsize.

The set is made from a soft and snuggly fleece teddy material and features an all-over pattern in a versatile cream colour that works well with most existing interiors. The fleece fabric and textured print give the bedding a refined and elegant appearance that is as attractive as it is functional.

Why shoppers are buying it

Household energy bills are set to climb following Ofgem's price cap increase this month. With this in mind, many families are seeking ways to stay warm without having to switch the heating on, and swapping summer bedding for a cosier alternative is one popular suggestion.

The bedding is only available in one light colour, which may not be ideal for households with children or pets. That said, the set is machine washable, making it suitable for frequent cleaning when necessary.

What shoppers say

As the Bellamere Burnout Fleece Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set is a recent addition to the website, it has yet to accumulate many reviews, though one shopper awarded it five stars. The customer wrote: "Lovely duvet set which will be ideal for the coming winter as its really warm and snuggly, I would definitely recommend buying this and at such a good price for the quality you'll get."

A second person noted: "Lovely design and quality only fault is too cosy so find it difficult to get out of bed in the morning."

Alternative options

Looking at other options, Dusk also offers a soft bedding set with their Soft Touch Microfibre Duvet Cover Set. Priced at £30 for a double, it comes in two colour options - stone and white.

For a comparable textured bedding set in a khaki green shade, the Next Green Stripe Textured Fleece Bedding Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set is priced at £35 for a double. One satisfied customer left a glowing review stating: "It is a beautiful luxurious fabric, very soft and tactile and really rich colour."
