Weve always just used duvets as a couple when camping, but they are big to cart about. what everyones feeling about double sleeping bags???

we used to use a double sleep bag, there a bit cramped plus cant kick a leg out if to warm! We now use a tesco value duvet (if gets damaged cheap enought to bin!) we then roll it up and it fits in the old double sleep bag's bag!

Just un zip it. I always do as I can't stand having my feet covered up unless it's -8

Or use one of those vacum bags to compress the duvet...

Kinda depends who you're sleeping with.

Thanks Colin!!! My wife who sleeps like a spacially unaware starfish...

btw - Rack looks ace really pleased with it!!

We bough the Tesco value extra large single sleeping bags and then zipped them together to provide an ultra King size. It's great loads of room for two star fish.

Weve always used double sleeping bag in our vans, you might not be able to get a leg out but atleast the wife cant pull it all off and cocoon herself like a giant cabbage white!

I still have to have my feet out

Duvet. We don't sleep in a sleeping bag at home, why would we in the van?

Good down duvet or sleeping bag unzipped and lay flat used as a duvet. By good down I mean all down, no feather. Not cheap, but take up very little space when packed away and have a wide comfort range so you won't overheat on warm nights or wake up cold on those cold nights.
