I've tested my fair share of bedding brands over the years as a shopping writer, but Piglet in Bed is one I keep coming back to. From its laid-back linen sets to its cosy extras, it's a brand I genuinely rave about.

Known for its soft, breathable fabrics and charming cottagecore aesthetic, Piglet has built a loyal following - and for good reason. The only sticking point? It's never been the most budget-friendly.

But right now, Piglet in Bed is offering 25% off everything on site until May 5, 2026. And yes, that really does mean everything - from its coveted bedding bundles to its effortlessly chic loungewear and bathroom accessories.

So for anyone who has been eyeing up a set (or three), this is the moment to take the plunge. As someone who's spent a lot of time living with these pieces, I've pulled together a few recommendations to get shoppers started.

There's something undeniably satisfying about swapping out an old, tired towel for a fresh new one, and Piglet's striped cotton styles make it feel like a proper upgrade. The coastal-inspired design is understated but stylish, and it instantly elevates a bathroom without trying too hard.

I've had one of the bath towels on rotation at home for a while now, and it's a solid everyday staple: soft, absorbent, and genuinely good-looking. The range also includes face cloths, hand towels and larger bath sheets, all included in the current sale.

That said, for an ultra-plush, sink-into-it feel you'd expect from a five-star hotel, these might not quite hit the mark. For something a little more indulgent, Rise & Fall is a standout for its thicker, hotel-style towels that dial up the luxury factor.

Ok, so even with a discount, the brand's linen sheets are still an investment. However, after sleeping on these sheets for more than two years, I can vouch that they are worth every penny.

Despite constant use, they remain as pristine as the day they arrived; they wash beautifully, emerging soft and supple rather than limp or worn, and sliding into them at the end of a long day feels like a genuine luxury.

Plus, the aesthetic is just as impressive as the feel. Piglet in Bed has perfected that relaxed, lived-in look that makes a bedroom feel instantly more serene and inviting. And for extra peace of mind, the entire range is OEKO-TEX certified, ensuring the fabric is free from harmful chemicals.

As mentioned, though, not everyone will want to spend over £150 on bedding. For those seeking a more budget-friendly alternative, Dunelm's linen range offers a similar look for under £100.

Now that it's getting hot outside, Piglet's cotton boxer shorts are currently at the top of my wishlist. They are crafted from 100% prewashed cotton, giving them a breezy, lightweight feel, and are available in five muted shades, including dusty pink and a sunny buttercup yellow.

These are the ultimate throw-on staples, perfect for slow mornings at home or for pairing with an oversized shirt on a casual coffee run. I'm already planning to get my hands on a pair ASAP, though they're brand-new to the site, and if past launches are anything to go by, they won't stay in stock for long.

However, I'm curious to see how the cotton holds up compared to my linen trouser set. While I love linen's softness, it tends to crease heavily after washing, so these could be the lower-maintenance alternative I've been looking for.
