Summer Bedding: Find the best bedding for the warmer months

Struggling to get to sleep in the heat? Here are a few lightweight, breathable bed linen options to keep you cool and comfortable during summer.

There are so many great things about summer, but trying to get to sleep in the heat is not one of them. Tossing, turning, and kicking the covers off is one method, however we recommend an easier alternative: investing in lightweight summer bedding and bed linen.

Summer Sheets

When selecting bed sheets for summer, stick to lightweight, breathable fabrics and natural fibres. This will help regulate your temperature and keep you cool overnight, drawing heat away from your body. Materials such as cotton, linen, and bamboo are perfect for this, and all have their own unique benefits.

Cotton Sheets

The most popular choice for sheets, cotton is light, breathable, and absorbent, making it perfect for warm nights and hot sleepers. Cotton sheets are also soft, versatile, and an ideal choice for those looking for a cool and comfortable sleep.

They are also incredibly versatile when it comes to texture and weight. If you're someone who prefers a light, silky feel, sheets with a cotton sateen weave and a lower thread count may meet your requirements. If you're someone who prefers a thicker sheet set with that crisp hotel feel, a higher thread count sheet might work for you. For extra luxury and durability, Egyptian Cotton is long-wearing and breathable, making it great for year-round use.

COTTON SHEETS

Linen Sheets

Another great choice for summer nights is linen. Constructed with a looser weave than cotton, linen allows air to pass through easily and prevents you from overheating. This makes linen sheets highly breathable and great for keeping cool in summer.

Our linen sheet sets contain a flat sheet and fitted sheet crafted from French Flax Linen. With their lightweight and airy feel, these sheets sit gently over the body rather than clinging to the skin and causing discomfort.

LINEN SHEETS

Bamboo Sheets

Lightweight, silky-smooth, and resilient, bamboo bedding and bed linen is perfect for warm climates and hot sleepers. Bamboo sheets provide a light, comfortable layer that will keep you comfortable without causing you to overheat. Bamboo is also highly absorbent and moisture wicking, with the added benefit of being environmentally friendly.

Our bamboo cotton blends will help keep your temperature regulated, without compromising a luxurious look and silky-soft feel. Blending these fibres brings together the best properties of each to create a fabric that is both breathable and long-wearing.

BAMBOO SHEETS

Light Top Layers

Now that you’ve chosen light, breathable sheets, it’s time to consider the top layer. While sleeping with just a top sheet is an option, a lot of us still want that extra weight without the extra heat. Finish off your summer bed with our selection of light and cooling quilts, bedspreads, coverlets, and blankets.

Summer Quilts and Duvets

We all love a soft, fluffy quilt, to the point where it can be hard to sleep without one - even if you find yourself sweating through the night.

Thankfully, there are summer duvets and quilts out there that are light and breathable enough to get you through the summer.

SUMMER QUILTS

Like cotton sheets, cotton quilts are perfect for hot sleepers, being lofty and cosy yet airy and lightweight.

If you are looking for a more environmentally friendly option with slightly less loft, a bamboo quilt may be the right choice for you. Bamboo is great for allergy sufferers, super lightweight, and breathable, helping you sleep despite the heat.

Wool cotton blends and light goose down are also excellent fills for cool, summer quilts.

SUMMER QUILTS

Bedspreads and Coverlets

For that little bit of extra comfort, lightweight bedspreads and coverlets are a great option for summer. Our bedspreads and coverlets are breathable and made from high quality cotton, making them perfect for warmer nights. They also double as an extra layer when the weather gets colder.

Blankets can also be a great alternative to a duvet when the weather heats up. Our blankets are lighter than your standard duvet or quilt, while still offering softness and a touch of warmth when needed.

BEDSPREADS & COVERLETS

More Summer Bed Linen

Finish off your warm weather bedding with a beautiful quilt cover. Similar to summer sheets, our cotton and linen quilt covers are a popular choice for summer. We also offer quilted quilt covers that serve as a great trans-seasonal option - simply remove your inner quilt or duvet during the cooler months for a lightly padded layer.
