Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Bay View Guesthouse in Whitby needed a fast and effective way to update its ten single rooms for the summer season. Their divan bases were still in great condition but looked tired, and a full replacement wasn't in the budget.
"We wanted a fresh, coordinated look that screamed quality but didn't break the bank. These green bed skirts were the perfect solution. They fit perfectly, the colour is lovely, and our rooms instantly look so much smarter and more modern."
Robert Davies – Proprietor
The simple addition improved their online review scores for 'room presentation and comfort' within the first month of use.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- For best results, give the valance a quick wash before first use to soften the fabric.
- Simply lift the mattress completely off the bed base.
- Lay the valance's flat sheet section smoothly over the base, ensuring it's centred.
- Align the pleated corners with the corners of the base, then carefully place the mattress back on top.
Keeping It Going
- Wash with similar colours at 60°C to maintain colour and ensure a hygienic clean.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting and remove promptly to minimise creasing.
- For an extra crisp finish, iron on a medium 'cotton' setting.
- Avoid using chlorine bleach, as it can weaken the fibres and cause the colour to fade.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is this valance for a standard single bed?
A: Yes, it's precisely designed to fit a standard UK single bed, which measures 900mm in width and 1900mm in length.
Q: What exactly is a 'kick pleat'?
A: A kick pleat is a smart, flat fold of fabric at each corner. It gives the valance a neat, tailored look, as opposed to a gathered or frilly finish.
Q: What is the drop length of the skirt?
A: The drop, which is the length from the top of the bed base to the floor, is 35cm (350mm). This is designed to cover most standard divan bases.
Q: Can I tumble dry this bed skirt?
A: Absolutely. You can tumble dry it on a low heat setting. Removing it as soon as the cycle finishes will help reduce the need for ironing.
Q: What material is it made from?
A: It's made from a durable and easy-care blend of 50% cotton and 50% polyester.
Q: Will the green colour fade after washing?
A: The polycotton blend is chosen for its excellent colour retention. To keep it looking its best, wash with similar colours and avoid harsh chlorine bleaches.
Q: How does this attach to the bed?
A: This is a platform valance. You place the flat sheet part directly onto your bed base, and the mattress sits on top, holding it securely in place.
Q: Do I need to iron it after every wash?
A: Thanks to the polyester content, it's crease-resistant. If you remove it from the dryer promptly, you may find it doesn't need ironing at all, saving valuable time.

Explore more from Mitre EssentialsWhy a Polycotton Blend is a Smarter Choice for Hospitality
Ever wondered why so many professional linens use a polycotton blend? It’s all about balancing performance with practicality. Think of it like this: 100% cotton is wonderfully soft, but it creases easily and can take an age to dry – a real headache for a busy housekeeping team with a fast turnaround. On the other hand, 100% polyester is incredibly tough but can sometimes feel a bit synthetic. By blending them 50/50, you get the best of both worlds. The cotton provides a soft, natural feel, while the polyester adds strength, helps it resist creasing, and drastically speeds up drying time. It's the secret formula for linen that looks sharp and feels great, day after day, without the high-maintenance hassle.
Who Should Buy This?
