Hi
Can anyone recommend a decent, cotton lined single sleeping bag please. Needs to be warm and reasonable pack up size.
Thank you

Hi, I'm not sure if it's cotton but it feels like it and I love it - the Vango Starlight Cocoon is lovely, soft and warm

The Czech Army Sleeping Roll has a 100% cotton liner. Can be got here here

You can get them slightly cheaper elsewhere, but these are un-used.

I have the double version of this.

Vango Aurora Grande

It's definitely warm, I slept like a baby in Wensleydale when the temp dropped well below freezing. The pack side is not small, however, it does have compression straps. It would be a bit big for backpacking though.

We have that double one too, moneypeni, well worth every single penny, love it! Pack size is an issue, but we split it in half and put each half in its own compression sack- much easier :)

Another vote for the vango aurora. We have the Grand version - very big. The Good lady wife loves hers - I found mine too warm (even at Easter).

We've just bought the vango Aurora, not used it yet but it feels lovely. You get what you pay for, buy a cheap sleeping bag and you'll probably be in for a chilly night.
