Double Brushed Cotton Flat Sheets

A fitted sheet has elasticated corners that wrap neatly around your mattress, creating a smooth, secure base layer. A flat sheet lies loosely over the fitted sheet and can be tucked in for a crisp finish. Both serve different purposes:

• Fitted sheet – protects your mattress and stays firmly in place.

• Flat sheet – adds comfort, improves hygiene, and reduces the need to wash your duvet cover as often.
  Belledorm offers both in matching collections—from easycare polycotton to luxurious Egyptian cotton—so you can create a perfectly coordinated bed.

A flat sheet is a lightweight, rectangular layer of fabric placed between you and your duvet. It adds an extra element of comfort, helps regulate temperature, and keeps your duvet cleaner for longer. Many Belledorm customers also use a flat sheet on its own during warmer months for a cooler, breathable night’s sleep. It’s a simple way to elevate your bedding routine and extend the life of your duvet cover.

You don’t have to use both, but many people enjoy the added comfort and luxury of layering. A fitted sheet keeps the base of your bed crisp and tidy, while a flat sheet offers a soft, breathable layer between your skin and duvet. It also reduces how often you need to wash your duvet cover—trusted by hotels for exactly this reason.

Choose the size that matches your mattress, Single, Double, King or Super King. Belledorm flat sheets are generously cut for easy tucking. If you love a hotel-style look with extra drape, you can size up for a more luxurious feel.

For a clean, hotel-inspired look, spread the sheet evenly over your mattress with equal overhang on each side. Tuck the foot end securely under the mattress first, then fold in each corner to create a crisp “hospital corner.” Belledorm’s high-quality cotton and polycotton weaves make this especially easy, thanks to their natural structure and drape.

Absolutely. A flat sheet adds a breathable, temperature-regulating layer that helps keep you cool in summer and comfortable year-round. High-quality fabrics, like Belledorm’s Egyptian Cotton and Pima Cotton, are naturally soft and gentle on the skin, creating a more inviting sleep environment and contributing to a better night’s rest. 

We recommend you wash our Brushed Cotton sheets before use and tumble dry if possible. This will remove excess loose fibres and lint that are left after the brushing process. Once used you should follow the recommended washing instructions on our wash care label. 

Brushed cotton is generally more suitable for colder seasons, such as autumn and winter. The brushing process used to create a soft and fuzzy surface on the fabric enhances its warmth and insulation properties, making it ideal for keeping you cosy during colder months. The brushed texture helps trap air and provides extra insulation, which can be particularly beneficial in cooler climates or if you tend to feel chilly at night. 

Cotton flannel identifies that the fabric is specifically made from cotton. Flannelette is a broader term for a brushed/ fuzzy fabric. 

Brushed cotton is cotton that has undergone a brushing process. Flannelette is brushed or fuzzy fabric that can be made from any fibre i.e wool, cotton or synthetic fibres.
