Mummy bags are snug, but you can't move legs very well, we prefer kingsize square, although our 11year old daughter loves her mummy - its very warm.

We just got a couple of these Vango 3 season bags use on there own or zip together

make sure u get a left hand zip & right hand zip if getting 2 bags to zip together

 Me and OH use these

Vango x-lite 450

 We zip them up together too and they are fine. When we are together, we open the zip at the bottom slightly to let the air flow,  as we both get hot feet. We find these bags are perfect in size, weather initiating anything or not,! I have never felt cold, or overheated. I would always vote for a Mummy bag, the design suits me to a T.

Even my kid's have mummy bags, and my son is like a windmill, yet he has never complained of a restricted space.

Don't forget you can get different lengths aswell.

We had mummy bags originally but OH has quite broad shoulders and he couldn't get them into the bag!  So we ditched those and bought Vango 350 2/3 season and they're brilliant!  Good and long and plenty of room to move around and only about £35 each.  We haven't put them through their paces in the winter yet, but we will be this year.

Another vote for Vango Astrals here! I tried a mummy bag as I am sure they are the warmer design but I just couldn't get on with it. Partly to do with getting all tangled when you want to turn over and partly to do with the dog. He normally sleeps on the bottom of my bag next to my feet, but with the restricted footarea of the mummy bag he was commandeering the whole of the bottom of the bag during the night and pushing me out of the top in my sleep, like toothpaste out of a tube.

OK, slight exaggeration but you get my gist! MT
