How to Sleep in Hot Weather: Snug Interiors’ Summer Sleep Guide
Longer days and warmer nights can make truly restful sleep more elusive but the right comfort can transform your summer evenings. Our collection is designed to elevate how you rest, unwind, and recharge no matter the season.
This Summer invest in timeless pieces to help you feel your best at home, whether you're cooling down, or simply seeking a moment of calm
Here’s how to build your perfect warm-weather sleep sanctuary:
1. Let Your Bed Breathe: Invest in Breathable Bed Linen
The first step to cooler sleep starts with your sheets. Traditional synthetic bedding traps heat and moisture, making your summer nights even more uncomfortable. Instead, switch to natural, breathable fibres.
At Snug Interiors, our Bedding Collection is a summer favourite light, crisp, and wonderfully airy. The smooth, high thread-count fabric encourages airflow and wicks away moisture, so your bed stays fresh and dry, even on humid nights.
Discover our Most Popular Bed Linen - Brompton
- 100% Egyptian cotton
- Woven in Italy
- Cool and crisp after every wash
- Breathable all year round
Top Tip: Stick to lighter colours (such as white and Ivory) they reflect heat better than dark tones.
2. Switch to a Lightweight Summer Duvet
Clinging to a heavy winter duvet in summer is a recipe for restlessness. That’s why we recommend switching to a lightweight duvet - one designed specifically to balance comfort with breathability.
Snug Interiors offers a range of summer duvets, including the 300gsm Devon Duvets Lightweight Duvet, which delivers natural temperature regulation and luxury comfort without added weight. For allergy-sensitive sleepers or those preferring synthetic alternatives, our Breathe Duvets are another breathable, hypoallergenic solution.
Top Tips:
- Opt for wool fillings for natural body temperature regulation
- Lower togs are better suited for warmer months
Tossing off your duvet every night? Ask us about our range of lower tog duvets to prevent overheating throughout the night
3. Stay cool from the core: Choose the right Mattress
Some mattresses retain heat, especially memory foam models, making sleeping in hot weather even harder. That’s why our mattress collections at Snug Interiors include advanced temperature-regulating options designed for optimal airflow and moisture control, handcrafted by skilled experts using pocket springs and upholstery fillings.
One of our top summer picks is the Hypnos Wool Origins No 8 Mattress. It features naturally breathable materials such as 100% British wool with a row of mini adaptiv springs that sit either side of the main pocket springs, offering addtional body contouring throughout the night
Why you’ll love it:
- Moisture-wicking 100% wool upholstery
- Breathable natural fillings for luxury comfort
- Chemical-free, fire-resistant cover
- Supportive 8-Turn ReActivePro™ Pocket Spring System
- Mini Adaptiv™ Comfort Springs for surface responsiveness
Sleep better and longer without night sweats for a rejuvinating night of rest.
4. Upgrade Your Sleep Position
Sleeping on your back or side can help expose more skin to air and reduce heat buildup.
Pair your position with a supportive, breathable pillow like our Vispring English Duck Feather and Down pillow for optimal airflow and spinal alignment.
Key Features:
- Breathable 80% English Duck Down and 20% English Duck Feather filling
- Pure cotton cover with a 300 thread count
- Hypoallergenic & Chemical-Free
- Machine washable 40°C
Bonus: Each Vispring Pillow comes with a 2 year guarantee.
5. Don’t overlook this final Layer: The Importance of a Mattress Protector
Throughout the night, our bodies naturally perspire, a process that can intensify significantly during warmer months. This makes a high-quality mattress protector an even more essential component of your bedding, not just for hygiene but also for promoting a cooler, more comfortable sleep environment.
Investing in a good quality, breathable mattress protector is a simple yet effective step to enhance your comfort and hygiene during the warmer months, It wicks moisture away from the body and drawing moisture or spills into the protector rather than the mattress, to maintain the high quality of the fillings for years to come and contributes to a more restful and cooler night's sleep.
