I've always liked the look of these...

I don't 'do' camping, my idea of rough sleeping is a Travelodge or similar so I've never bought one but they do seem to be quality kit.

Have a look at Alpkit (you can normally get a good discount and further money off if you sign up to their newsletters):

They are not that great if you're tall (I'm 6ft 5 and find the Alpkit bags a bit short).

Rab also do good bags, but you'll pay for a really warm one:

I've got a couple of Mountain Equipment XXL sleeping bags and I really love them... not the cheapest, but buy once/cry once:

Some of the above might be a bit extreme for the OPs potential usage, but a decent night's sleep in a good sleeping bag is one of life's little joys IMO. Shivering the whole night through in a crappy thin sleeping bag is not fun.

OP: in your shoes, I'd be looking at a decent synthetic bag as the filling will be a bit more robust/require less careful handling than a high end down bag.

Not sure it's a recommendation for current kit but I have two Rab bags. The summer one is 34 years old and still going strong despite the abuse, the winter one is less abused and 27 years old.
