Pillows & Comfort
After a long day tramping across British fells or setting up camp in less-than-ideal weather, there’s nothing quite like crawling into a properly comfortable sleeping setup. The difference between a restful night’s sleep and lying awake listening to every rustle in the undergrowth often comes down to having the right combination of sleeping bag, mat, and pillow. Whether you’re wild camping in the Lake District, tackling a multi-day trek across Scotland, or simply enjoying a weekend under canvas, your sleeping system is what transforms a potentially miserable night into the kind of restorative rest that has you eager for tomorrow’s adventures. From ultralight inflatable pillows that pack down to nothing, to luxurious camping mattresses that rival your bed at home, we’ve tested the gear that’ll help you wake up refreshed rather than resembling something the cat dragged in.
