This isn't just another piece of bedding; it's a statement of quality and comfort designed specifically for the demands of the UK's hospitality sector.

Expert Review and Insights
The Moorhouse Ruby pillowcase from Mitre is a fantastic example of balancing aesthetics with practicality. It moves away from the clinical feel of plain white linen, offering a warmth that's ideal for country inns or boutique B&Bs. The poly-cotton fabric is the real workhorse here, ensuring it looks the part long after others would have faded.

- Pros: The fabric holds up exceptionally well to industrial laundering, resisting shrinkage and creasing.
- Cons: Its specific floral design, while lovely, might not suit more contemporary or minimalist interiors.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Orchard B&B in Hereford needed to refresh their guest rooms to create a more premium, countryside feel, while also finding linens that could reduce laundry day workloads for their small team.
"We switched to the Moorhouse Ruby pillowcases and matching duvets, and the feedback has been wonderful. Guests love the charming look, and my team loves that they come out of the dryer looking fantastic with minimal ironing. They've been a brilliant investment in both guest satisfaction and our own efficiency."
Robert Davies – Owner, The Orchard B&B
The switch resulted in a noticeable improvement in guest reviews mentioning room comfort and a 20% reduction in time spent on ironing bedding.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Always perform a pre-wash before first use to soften the fabric and ensure maximum hygiene.
- Ensure you're using standard UK-sized pillows for a snug, professional fit inside the case.
- For the best presentation, pair with the matching Moorhouse Ruby duvet cover (HN749).
- Smooth down by hand when placing on the bed to minimise any minor creases from storage.
Keeping It Going
- Wash with similar colours on a standard commercial cycle to maintain the vibrant ruby pattern.
- Avoid using harsh chlorine bleaches, as this can weaken fibres and fade the design over time.
- Tumble dry on a medium heat setting; remove promptly to prevent deep-set wrinkles.
- Store folded flat in a dry, well-ventilated linen cupboard away from direct sunlight.

Ever wondered why 'poly cotton' is the go-to fabric for so many hotels and B&Bs? Think of it like a perfect partnership. You get the best of both worlds in one hardworking fabric. The 'cotton' part brings the softness, breathability, and comfort that guests expect for a good night's sleep. It feels natural and gentle against the skin.
Then, the 'poly' (polyester) part brings the muscle. Polyester is incredibly durable, meaning the pillowcase can handle the frequent, high-temperature washes of a commercial laundry without losing its shape or strength. It's also much more resistant to creasing than 100% cotton. This means less time and effort spent on ironing, getting rooms ready faster on busy changeover days. So, you get happy guests thanks to the comfort, and happy staff thanks to the easy maintenance.
Who Should Buy This?
- Boutique Hotels: Perfect for creating individually styled rooms with a memorable, high-quality touch that guests will appreciate.
- Country Pubs with Rooms: Complements a traditional, rustic aesthetic, adding to the cosy, getaway feel of your accommodation.
- Guest Houses & B&Bs: An excellent way to provide a welcoming, 'home-from-home' experience with durable, easy-care hospitality pillow covers.
