Panda London are relatively new on our radar, but their offering is pretty timeless. We can’t recommend their Cloud Duvet more highly, so layering it between these two layers is sure to induce the most wonderful sleep.

The best feather-top mattresses
Puff toppers are often the thickest type of topper on the market. They offer a sense of luxury thanks to their fluffy, cloud-like texture. There are a number of fantastic down tops on the market and our top picks are from The White Company, John Lewis, Soak and sleep and Brinkhouse. Each one is worth the money, providing comfort and support is a huge measure.
For the highest end of fluff-filled cloud-like toppers, look to Brinkhaus. The German brand has been around since the 1800s, so it’s safe to say they know what they’re doing when it comes to crafting luxury sleep aids. The Twin Topper mattress topper is their highest-end mattress topper. It comes in two parts: first, the base layer, filled with feathers and down, is attached to the mattress with elastic straps. Then on top, the second layer (detachable and washable up to 60 degrees), is packed with 90% European goose down. Both layers are covered with a fine twill made of 100% Egyptian staple cotton. A gorgeous upgrade to any mattress.
