I have been scouring the Internet for a cheap 3 season down sleeping bag. I am willing to pay up to around £200. So far I have found only 2 around this price:

Alpkit Pipedream 400 at £199 which is a mummy style
Rab Outpost 500 at £207 which is rectangular style (this style being my preferred style)

I've also looked at Naturehike bags but at such a cheap price at £80 and no mention of comfort temperatures I am a bit dubious.

The reason I want a down sleeping bag is for bikepacking and the pack size of down bags are perfect

Does anyone know of any other down sleeping bags in the price range I am after?

I've been pleased with the OEX own brand down bags. They often come up on offer in Go Outdoors but below your budget.

Rab have a factory shop at their main offices close to J28 of the M1,their address is on their website but note they are now called EQUIP OUTDOOR TECNOLOGIES & they are located at the far end of an industrial estate. check also opening times, they are usually 60% of outdoor shop prices and sell theirs and LOWE stock, beware it is usually an expensive trip as you always find more than you bargained for, plus it isn't far to the ALPKIT HQ/shop where you can pickup bargains as well

Look at the Snugpak bags - I often have to sleep out in extreme weather for work, and use the SnugPak special forces system - if it's dry, it's all I need, if it's wet, I use a bivvy bag too.

They do a huge range, from quite cheap to very expensive, but I can thoroughly recomend them.
