Now the sun has finally made an appearance, it's time to swap out the chunky blankets and autumnal hues for something lighter, brighter, and more spring-appropriate. And if you're looking for a perfect cheerful yet cosy upgrade, Dunelm's gingham bedding is worth a look — in fact, shoppers love it so much they're 'buying it in four colours'.
There's something about gingham that just feels like warm warmer — maybe it's the picnic blanket vibes or its cottage-core aesthetic, but it's the ideal print for spring and summer bedrooms. Dunelm's sheets come in nine dreamy colours, ranging from soft pastels to classic neutrals, so there's a shade to match your vibe.
The set is reversible, meaning you can flip it over for an instant refresh — handy when you fancy a change. It's made from 100% washed cotton, which makes it super soft and breathable and a great choice for warm nights ahead.

It's available in four sizes (single, double, king and super king), with prices ranging from £30 to £50. The set has a duvet cover and two pillowcases, although the single size only has one.
To style it, layer it with textured throws and cushions in complementary shades to add depth to your bed. Otherwise, gingham plays well with florals, stripes and solid colours, so you can mix and match however you like.
These cotton sheets are naturally soft and breathable, making them ideal for spring and summer.
Prices start from £30
DunelmAs mentioned, the majority of Dunelm shoppers love these sheets. Someone said, "Absolutely love the duvet and pillowcases. Such good quality and value for the money. I bought the bedding in pink, and it's perfect for spring and summer."
A second person said: "Cosy and comfortable, I purchased four sets in different colours." Meanwhile, another said, "This is a lovely bedding set that looks great. It washes well and has a naturally crinkly finish."
Not everyone was as impressed, though, with some reviewers complaining how creased it is: "Once washed, it becomes very creased. I liked gingham patterns, but it's not worth it as it creases badly."
In that case, you may prefer cotton blend or sateen weave, which are less prone to wrinkling. Dusk's cotton gingham sheets are a great alternative (and they're reduced to £34 from £75 in the sale), while Next's cotton blend set is another cute option with scalloped edges and a reversible pattern.
But another Dunelm shopper added: "I purchased the green in bedding and matching curtains for our guest room and loved it so much that I purchased the black for our bedroom, too. It looks amazing, washes well and is extremely comfortable to sleep in. Plus, gingham is always so welcoming to look at."
So, if you've been looking for a way to instantly makeover your bedroom, Dunelm's gingham bedding is an affordable option. You can shop it here.
