3' x 6'3" Single Fitted Sheets

Choosing the Right Bed Sheets

The best bed sheet depends on your mattress size, mattress depth and how you prefer your bed to feel. A fitted sheet gives a neat, secure fit around the mattress, while a flat sheet can be used as a traditional top sheet or as an extra layer between you and your duvet.

Fitted Sheets

Fitted sheets are the most popular choice for everyday bedding. Elasticated corners help the sheet stay in place, giving a smooth sleeping surface. We offer fitted sheets for standard UK sizes as well as harder-to-find sizes including small double, long single, large single, emperor, Caesar and IKEA beds.

Deep Fitted Sheets

If your mattress is deeper than average, or you use a mattress topper, a standard fitted sheet may pull off the corners. Our deep fitted sheets are designed for thicker mattresses and are available in a choice of depths, helping the sheet tuck properly underneath the mattress.

Flat Sheets

Flat sheets are ideal if you prefer a traditional top sheet, want an extra layer in summer, or need a generous sheet for a non-standard bed. They are also useful for guest rooms, hotels, care homes and anyone who likes bedding that is easy to fold, wash and rotate.

Semi Fitted Sheets

Semi fitted sheets combine the easy handling of a flat sheet with the grip of a fitted sheet. The sheet is fitted with elastic at one end to fit around the fit of the bed. They are especially useful as top sheets because they stay neater at the bottom of the bed while still being easy to turn back. They are also perfect for adjustable and electric beds.

Bed Sheet Sets

Bed sheet sets are a simple way to buy matching bedding. Depending on the range, sets may include a fitted or flat sheet with matching pillowcases, giving your bed a coordinated look without having to order each item separately.

Sheets Made for Standard and Unusual Bed Sizes

Because many of our sheets are cut and sewn in-house, we can supply bedding for both standard and non-standard beds. This includes small double beds in different lengths, long single beds, large single beds, emperor beds, Caesar beds, adjustable beds, caravan beds, round beds and European or IKEA mattress sizes.

If your mattress is an unusual size or depth, it is worth choosing a sheet made to fit rather than forcing a standard size. A better-fitting sheet looks neater, feels more comfortable and is less likely to come loose during the night.

Which Fabric Should You Choose?

For easy everyday care, poly cotton percale is a practical choice. For a cooler natural feel, cotton percale and bamboo are popular options. If you prefer a smoother, more luxurious finish, cotton sateen, satin stripe and high thread count Egyptian cotton ranges offer a softer hotel-style feel.

Bed Sheets FAQs

What is the difference between fitted sheets and deep fitted sheets?

A fitted sheet is made to cover the mattress with elasticated corners. A deep fitted sheet is made with extra depth, so it can fit thicker mattresses or mattresses with toppers.

Do I need a flat sheet?

A flat sheet is optional, but many people like using one as a top sheet. It adds an extra layer, helps keep the duvet cover cleaner and can be useful in warmer weather.

What are semi fitted sheets used for?

Semi fitted sheets are often used as top sheets. They have a shaped or fitted foot end, helping the sheet stay neater on the bed.

Can you make sheets for non-standard beds?

Yes, many of our bed sheets are made in-house, allowing us to supply standard and unusual sizes, including extra long, extra deep and bespoke bed sizes.

Which sheets are best for deep mattresses?

Deep fitted sheets are usually the best choice for deep mattresses, pillow top mattresses or beds with mattress toppers, as they provide more fabric to tuck underneath the mattress.
