Invest in fleece bedding

One way to keep your bed warm and comfortable during the winter months is to invest in fleece bedding.

Fleece is an excellent insulator, designed to trap heat and prevent it from escaping.

As a result, you'll be able to stay warm even on the coldest nights.

In addition, fleece bedding is extremely soft and cosy, making it the perfect option for snuggling up on a cold winter's night.

Heat your bedroom only

Many people think that heating their whole house is the only way to stay warm in the winter.

However, this can be very expensive, and it is not always necessary.

If you only need to heat one room, you can use a space heater.

Space heaters are relatively inexpensive, and they do a great job of heating up a small area.

You can also save money by turning down the radiators in rooms that you are not using.

This will help to reduce your overall energy consumption, whilst allowing you to stay warm and comfortable.

So next time you are feeling chilly, consider heating just your room instead of your whole house.


Use a hot water bottle

A hot water bottle is a great way to keep your bed warm and cosy.

The heat will radiate through the bed, keeping you warm all night long. You can also use a hot water bottle to preheat your sheets.

Simply place the bottle in your bed for a few minutes before getting in.

This will help to take the chill off of your sheets, making them more comfortable to sleep in.


Wear socks to bed

One simple way to keep your feet warm at night is to wear socks to bed.

This will help to trap heat in your feet, keeping them warm throughout the night.

In addition, wearing socks to bed can also prevent you from getting cold feet when you get out of bed in the morning.

So, if you often find your feet feeling cold at night, be sure to try wearing socks to bed.

Use a heated mattress pad or electric blanket

If you really want to keep your bed warm and cosy, then using an electric blanket or heated mattress pad is the way to go.

These products are designed to generate heat, which will then radiate through your bed, keeping you warm all night long.

Electric blankets and heated mattress pads are relatively inexpensive and are a great way to stay warm during the winter months.

If you find it difficult to stay warm in the night may be worth considering.


Get a thicker duvet

Another solution is to invest in a higher tog duvet. Tog is a measure of warmth, and a higher tog rating means that the duvet will provide more insulation.

As a result, you'll be able to keep your bedroom at a lower temperature without sacrificing comfort.

There’s a range of duvet fillings available, from down to synthetic, so you can choose the one that suits you best.

Layer your bedding

One way to make your bed cosier is to add an extra layer of bedding.

This could be a blanket, a quilt or even an extra duvet.

By adding an extra layer, you'll be able to trap heat more effectively, keeping you warm at night.

In addition, layering your bedding can also add a touch of luxury to your bedroom.

So, if you're looking for a way to make your bed more comfortable, be sure to try layering your bedding.


Use a draft excluder

A draft excluder is a simple but effective way to keep your bedroom warm.

Drafts can let cold air into your room, making it difficult to keep warm.

A draft excluder is designed to block drafts, trapping heat in your room and keeping you cosy at night.

You can buy draft excluders relatively cheaply, and they are easy to use.

Simply place them at the bottom of your door to keep drafts out.

So, there you have it, 8 ways to make your bed warm and cosy this winter.

By following these tips, you'll be able to stay comfortable and save money on your energy bills. So why not give them a try?
