There’s truly nothing like stepping out of your shower and into the embrace of a warm towel, especially while we’re in the throes of winter! But much like most other homewares and furniture, there’s a style, texture, material, size, and palette for every preference, and finding your perfect fit can become quickly overwhelming.

If you’re looking to avoid hours spent scrolling various websites looking for the best set to suit, you’ve come to the right place.

Bath towels vs bath sheets

First things first, the age-old debate: bath towel, or bath sheet? If you’re unsure of the difference, it comes down to size. While a bath towel is generally 70cm x 140cm, a bath sheet tends to sit around the 90cm x 160cm mark, giving you quite a bit extra to wrap yourself up in. If you don’t have a lot of space to hang laundry, opt for a bath towel – it’s also worth considering that bath sheets can take up quite a bit of room in the wash. However, if you have the space for it, a bath sheet is a luxury you can definitely afford!

We’ve put together our favourite bath towel and sheet ranges for every palette and style. All that’s left to do is add to cart!
