Getting a good night's sleep is important for our mental and physical wellbeing and tired, puffy skin is a sure sign of lack of sleep. We sometimes forget that skin is the largest organ of our body and, just like the rest of our body, it needs sleep to regenerate, as well as to look and feel healthy. Our blog explains why.

At Devon Duvets, we created the UK’s original British wool duvet over 14 years ago, because we wanted to find a way to help people sleep better. This was swiftly followed by our British wool toppers and pillows. Wool has many beneficial properties when it comes to bedding. It’s breathable and temperature regulating, helping to keep your core body temperate in balance whilst you sleep. It has moisture wicking abilities, keeping humidity levels down in your bedding, thereby making it naturally resistant to dust mites and the build-up of micro bacteria. This means that wool is also hypoallergenic and more hygienic.
Our British wool filled pillows are amongst our top selling items and many of our customers have been asking if we can make cushion pads. Our seamstresses set to work and now we’re delighted to offer our gorgeous, individually handcrafted, wool filled cushion pads.
Spring is here and there are lambs in fields around Devon and on Dartmoor. If that isn’t enough to make you smile, then the lengthening hours of sunlight are always welcome and gives us a sense of wellbeing.
Our entire focus is on how we can make products that help people to sleep better. We often talk about Wool Wellbeing, amongst the Devon Duvets team at our workshops, as well as on our website – and it’s something that is deeply ingrained in everything that we do.
Our duvets, toppers and pillows are Beautifully British because they are 100% made in Britain. What’s more, nobody else makes them for us. We individually handcraft every single one, here in our own workshops at the edge of Dartmoor.
