Choosing bedding for your caravan is a little different to choosing bedding at home. Space matters, temperatures can change quickly and, of course, you still want your bed to look beautiful.
That’s exactly why we love a linen coverlet for a caravan bed. Lightweight, breathable and easy to layer, it’s one of those pieces of caravan bedding that looks good while being incredibly practical too.
1. They're lightweight without leaving the bed bare
A big, heavy doona isn't always what you want in a caravan, particularly through the warmer months.
A linen coverlet gives you a light layer over your caravan sheets, while still making the bed feel finished. Use it on its own when it’s warm or layer it over your doona when you need some extra warmth.
2. Linen is made for changing temperatures
One of the reasons we love 100% linen bedding is its breathability.
Caravans can go from cool mornings to warm afternoons depending on where you're travelling, so having bedding that can be easily layered makes a big difference.
3. They don't take up loads of space
Storage space is precious in a caravan.
A coverlet is less bulky than many traditional bedspreads and heavy blankets, making it easier to fold away when you’re not using it.
And when you are using it? It can double as an extra layer on the bed or something to curl up under on the couch.
4. They're an easy way to change the whole look of your caravan
Your bed takes up a pretty big chunk of the interior of most caravans, so changing the bedding can completely change how the space feels.
Our Linen Coverlet Sets come in colours designed to work back with the rest of the MeanderWild caravan bedding range, making it easy to mix, match and layer with your sheets, quilt covers and cushions.
5. Linen doesn't need to look perfect
Possibly our favourite part.
Linen is meant to have that relaxed, slightly lived-in look, which means you can forget about trying to achieve a perfectly ironed bed while you're travelling.
Wash it, dry it, throw it back on the bed and let the linen do its thing.
Coverlet or doona for your caravan?
You don't necessarily have to choose.
In warmer weather, a linen coverlet can be all you need over your sheets. When temperatures drop, use your doona for warmth and layer the coverlet over the top.
It gives you more flexibility as the seasons — and your destination — change.
