Fill a hot water bottle and put it in the freezer, then take it to bed (the bottle, not the freezer)

Old stone houses in Wales with thick walls tend to stay pretty cool in this hot weather. Mind you don’t think it has been as hot here during the day as in other parts of the country

I use a couple of dog cooling mats which I alternate, I find if I have a cool head I can sleep better. I’ve got an air blade too, I put a jug of cold water with ice cubes in front of it, so it cools the air down. The other thing that helps is if you can get a through draft through the upstairs in the evening before you go to bed.
I know some people also douse their house bricks in cold water, but I haven’t tried that!

Blimey paws my bedroom is never down to 14c even in winter, are you melting ice blocks in there!

I know it would not have made a difference when Paw was alive, but I can’t sleep with windows open around the house- it seems such a temptation to burglars. So locked “ajar” and a Dyson fan are my compromise.
It more or less wins, yesterday morning the temperature in my bedroom was 14C while it was 25C outside.

We have a breeze just starting here on south coast, and very refreshing it is to.

Our house is hotter upstairs on top floor (townhouse) but as long as we do as you do it’s cooled down by the evening, today there’s been a lovely breeze most of the day. Not had trouble sleeping at all.
