Outwell Fir Supreme & Outwell Oak Supreme

It’s true that the majority of campervanners like to stick with traditional duvets when it comes to bedding options, but we don’t really care about that because we can’t offer much advice. It’s hardly rocket science – go to shop that sells duvets, buy duvet, put duvet in campervan. Just like at home, you might want to get summer and winter duvets, and we’d recommend buying a set specifically for your campervan rather than taking your ones from home because, one day, you’ll forget to pack them and have to make do with a beach towel. Been there, done that. Anyway, ignore our advice if you will, but the trouble with duvets is that they are huge and bulky, so we prefer bed rolls or sleeping bags, which can be packed away to nothing during the day. Like duvets, they come with different temperature ratings and, at this time of year, you’ll want something reasonably substantial. Whilst a campervan is better insulated than a tent the size of a teabag half-way up Everest, it can still get chilly. Outwell offers a range of sleeping bags for all occasions, and our first pick is the Fir Supreme, because it’s really soft and cosy, and features a spacious egg-shape design, which it said to be ideal for sleepers that toss and turn. We also like the design of the two-way zip, as it means you can open up the top section as much or as little as you like, and use it like a duvet/blanket. It’s available in standard and long lengths, too. The comfort rating is 1 degree Celsius for women and 6 for men but, if you want a more technical bag that will keep you comfortable down to -8/-2, our pick is the Oak Supreme. This has an hourglass shape and we like that it has dual zips, positioned on the outside. outwell.com
