Sleeping in Skyrim seems to be a more interesting problem. There is snowfall in the snowy areas and obviously it would be very cold and you could freeze to death. I doubt they will permit sleeping in these areas if they wish to promote an ounce of realism, without some form of proper sleeping arrangement. Perhaps you can buy tents now. And erect your tent, which will expand as soon as you place it into a tall structure you can actually go into, with a minimal fire, and a small opening above it to let the smoke out, and blanket to lie on next to that.
Or perhaps you have a shovel and a huge bear skin rug rolled up in your pack. And when you go to sleep you have to dig a hole and line the hole with the bear skin and then crawl down into it and seal yourself like a makeshift igloo. Man vs. Wild, the TV show, has a guy showing how to survive in snow by digging a small cave in the snow and by fortifying yourself down inside it from the harsh wind-sheer that virtually robs you of all warmth in hours.
So it must be one of the two, I would guess.
