Duvets

I'm thinking about taking a kingsize duvet with us (me and ds) rather than two sleeping bags. What size stuff/dry bag would you recommend- can't take vacuum bags as we have no electricity at the festival.

My gut instinct is saying no... you'll be cold, it will get dirty, it will be pain to wash afterwards.

We always take our king size down duvet camping, it's super snuggly and warm! We fold and roll it tightly & tie up with the washing line. It obviously depends where you're going & for how long, what your tent is like etc., but we don't find ours gets dirty or damp. We do put 2 duvet covers on and usually have a fleece blanket on top.
I don't like sleeping bags, always sleep well under my duvet! Grin

We've taken duvets camping before, but you also need something under you for extra insulation. We have blow up bed, 2 fleece blankets, fitted sheet them duvet on top (and full pjs plus bedsocks!)
Camping in the UK is always cold!

Thank you.

Just to add (incase anyone comes searching for similar answers) I bought an 80l dry bag from mountain warehouse (sports direct had no 70l bags in store which I was going to purchase). It easily fits my kingsize and will also take my pillows, sheets and blankets!
