For me the beauty of having a van is that u can sleep under a duvet with ur own pillows instead of a sleeping bag, then just chuck in a bag like an IKEA blue bag to stop it getting dirty

When living in a van space is always at a premium. If it can be packed away. Pack it away !! Van has three modes. Driving. Living. Sleeping. The better you can use all your space between these modes. (I spent 5 weeks 3 summers in a row living in a T5 with the Mrs and our 2 kids)

It's a full sized, double bed. I'd prefer a duvet/pillows - and of course have some in the house that I could use. I'm just a bit worried about storage, and getting them mucky, in a way that I don't think I'd be concerned about a sleeping bag.
My intended use case is using the van as a base when racing the Southern Enduro series (and others which I can get to), so the bike will be in the van with me as I don't want to wake up on race day to find I have to run the course as someone has made off with my wheels.
Pulling a double sleeping bag out of a stuff sack and throwing it onto the mattress strikes me as easier than getting a fitted sheet and a duvet out, but maybe I'm overthinking this.
