With high temperatures comes the high chance that many people will find getting to sleep in the hotter conditions a challenge - enough people struggle for bedding manufacturers to produce ranges of 'cooling bedding'.
Fogarty's range of cooling cotton bedding has become a popular choice with Dunelm customers, with duvet covers ranging in price from £11.50 to £40, fitted and flat sheets range from £7 to £28 both depending on the size required, plus a pair of pillowcases costing £10. The range also includes a bed valance, ranging in price from £10 to £28.
The range of duvet cover, pillowcases, flat or fitted sheets, and valances currently come in seven colours - mushroom, sage green, navy, silver, white, dark grey and blush pink. For more property stories sent to your inbox twice a week sign up to the property newsletter here

The Fogarty cooling bedding range is made from 70% cotton and 30% tencel with a 200 thread count and can be machine washed, tumble dried on a low setting and ironed on a high setting. The items are sold separately, not as a bedding set, offering you flexibility as to where you want the most 'cooling' impact.
The manufacturer states, 'naturally soft and cooling, this Fogarty Cooling Cotton Duvet Cover is essential for your home. Beautifully crafted from responsibly sourced cotton blended with TENCEL™, this duvet cover is a great addition to any bedroom. This duvet cover features lyocell fibres that are strong, wick moisture, and are gentle on the skin'.
Customers have been happily giving their feedback on Dunelm's site, with one saying, 'Perfect for warm weather! I originally had the bottom sheet, so glad we now have the quilt! Soft to touch, and during the night while it's been warm this has helped so much to go back to sleep! Fully recommend if you get too hot or struggle to sleep in heat. Worth every penny'.
Pretty in pink - but buyers need to realise the duvet cover, pillowcases and sheets are sold separately

Another buyer states, 'I'm happy to say I have found a new favourite with the Fogarty cooling products. Can't recommend them enough for a comfortable night's sleep. I bought white set of pillow cases, sheet, duvet etc. it looks nice and clean on the bed. Very happy'.
One customer admits to being a little confused by the bedding at first, but now loves it, saying, 'Definitely the cooling cotton works, they are cool to touch and to sleep on! I have found they are of good quality and quick drying. However because they are cooling cotton when drying I'm not used to this, and think the sheets are damp! 100% they're not, they're just cool!'.

One customer is blaming the rest of the family for over-heating, saying 'We often have multiple dogs and my very hot husband in the bed and so cool is king in our house - love these sheets so cool and feel like I'm on a lovely holiday every night - great quality, while another says, 'Incredible sheets, so cool and fresh and wonderful to get into for a nice clean feeling, nothing's better'.
But the Fogarty duvet cover and cooling bedding range is not just for summer according to one customer who comments, 'Absolutely love this, it's so luxurious and cosy you just can't wait to jump into bed'.

Of the sprinkling of more negative comments two themes emerge - that customers were hoping it came with pillowcases too, and that for some people the set creases and needs ironing in their view, with one saying, 'The material is quite cooling, but it's very thin and does crease a lot after a wash compared to my other 100% cotton bedsheets from Dunelm. It's ok overall, but wish it came with a pair of pillows instead of having to buy it separately'.
Alternatives to the Fogarty range of cooling bedding are the Habitat Cool Lyocell Cotton Dove Grey Bedding Set priced £23.50 in dove grey or white available from Argos and the White Cool Touch 200 Thread Count Duvet Cover and Pillowcase Set in sage green or white priced from £20 to £62 from Next.

Dreamiest bedding sets to refresh your room for summer

Wake up happy with our top picks, from Dusk, Dunelm, The White Company and more It's been spring for a while now, and summer isn't far off - which means it's the perfect time to give your bedding a seasonal refresh. If you've still got dark hues and chunky layers clinging to your bed, don't worry - there's still plenty of time to swap them out for lighter tones, breathable fabrics and pretty patterns. I've rounded up a selection of gorgeous spring/summer bedding sets from some of my favourite retailers - think high street heroes like Dunelm and Habitat, as well as luxurious finds from Piglet in Bed, The White Company and Feather & Black. And when it comes to warmer nights, fabric matters. So, I've prioritised moisture-wicking, breathable fabrics like cotton and linen - because no one wants to wake up in a sweaty huff at 3am. So, whether you're into soft florals, minimalist neutrals or something bold and bright, these bedding sets are sure to help you sleep cooler and more stylishly this season. Without further ado, here are my top picks for spring and summer bedding. The best bedding sets for spring/summer Dunelm Striped Bedding - from £24 Dunelm boasts an impressive selection in a variety of colours and patterns, and I've been particularly taken with this reversible striped set, costing £34 for a double in the sale. It's soft to the touch, looks far more luxurious than its price tag suggests, and boasts a 144-thread count - a respectable figure that strikes a balance between comfort and durability without inflating the cost. The reversible design is a delightful feature as well. It allows me to give my bed a fresh look with a simple flip, which is perfect for a low-effort bedroom makeover. This is an excellent purchase if you're looking for budget-friendly bedding that doesn't compromise on quality. Sizes: Single, double, king, super king Material: Cotton Pillowcases included? Yes Dusk Gabriella Gingham Bedding Set - from £34 Ask anyone, they'll tell you that I'm a Dusk obsessive. From my lampshade and bedroom furniture to my bath towels and even glassware - half my home could double up as a Dusk showroom. I love the brand for its high-quality pieces that look far more expensive than they are, making it an easy (and affordable) way to give your home that elevated aesthetic without breaking the bank. I've got a couple of bedding sets from Dusk already, but this neutral gingham combo might just be my favourite. The soft gingham print feels classic - something I know I'll keep coming back to season after season. Even better, it's currently on sale, down from £75 to £34 for a double. If you're after a light and lovely bedding upgrade with timeless appeal, this set is hard to beat. Sizes: Double, king, super king Material: Cotton Pillowcases included? Yes Habitat Cotton Paper Cut Leaf Pink Bedding Set - from £14 When it comes to stylish, affordable homeware, Habitat rarely misses - and its bedding range is no exception. If you're looking to update your bedroom without breaking the bank, this pink bedding set is a total steal at £18 for a double size. There's a lot to rave about this set. For starters, it's made from 100% breathable cotton, which keeps things cool and comfortable. It's also reversible for a quick style refresh - ideal if you like to mix things up without investing in a second set. Design-wise, the vibrant pink detailing is ideal for summer, adding an instant pop of colour to any space. The playful leaf motif has a relaxed, almost tropical feel, reminding me of a holiday villa. It's cheerful, bright and full of personality without being overwhelming. The majority of shoppers love it, with one stating: "This didn't disappoint, great quality and value, it washes, and tumble dries well, and the print is bright and cheery." But another complained: "I ordered a super king, but the sizing does not match a super king size duvet." Sizes: Single, double, king, super king Material: Cotton Pillowcases included? Yes Multi Tufted Check Bedding Set - from £45 When you hear multi-coloured bedding, your mind might jump to something loud or overwhelming - but Next's set is proof that colour can be done with subtlety and style. It's bright, yes, but in a most laid-back, texture-rich way. The design features a soft, tufted grid pattern in a rainbow of playful, bright colours, all set against a crisp, white background that keeps things feeling fresh and airy. The effect is joyful without being chaotic - it's the kind of bedding that lifts a room without overwhelming the entire scheme. The gentle pops of colour will bring life to neutral or muted bedrooms, while the textured detailing will add depth and a bit of tactile interest. It's a brilliant option for those who want something a little more fun but still grown-up. There aren't many online reviews of this set, although one person said: "Brilliant quality, looks amazing and absolutely worth the money." However, it's unfortunate the super king size is already out of stock. Material: Cotton Pillowcases included? Yes The White Company Savoy Bedding - from £100 White bedding is always a classic - crisp, clean and effortlessly elegant, no matter the season. And if you're after a set that feels as luxurious as it looks, The White Company has you covered. The brand's Savoy Egyptian Cotton Bedding is the perfect example of timeless style with a modern update. At first glance, the set fits the bill for hotel-inspired minimalism. But look closer, and you'll spot a soft blush pink trim running along the edges of the duvet and pillowcases - a barely-there detail that adds just the right amount of interest without overpowering the serene white base. Meanwhile, the pillowcases (sold separately) bring that tailored, high-end finish with neat Oxford borders. Made from 400-thread-count Egyptian cotton, the Savoy set will feel incredible. Egyptian cotton is renowned for its exceptionally long fibres, which yield a smoother, more durable fabric that only becomes softer with each wash. Most shoppers love this set, with one saying: "Lovely bedding with a smooth finish, looks fab and feels gorgeous to sleep in.." However, another chimed in: "The fabric feels quite thin." Sizes: Single, double, king, super king Material: Egyptian cotton Pillowcases included? No Feather & Black Cotton Jacquard Duvet Cover - from £119 Another luxe bedding pick is from Feather & Black, a British brand known for its elegant, timeless bedroom furniture and beautifully crafted linens. The pieces lean into quality materials, thoughtful design and a soft, understated colour palette that feels like a natural fit for tranquil spaces. For my spring/summer refresh, I've gone for the Jacquard Set, and it's an instant favourite. Woven in Portugal, a country celebrated for its textile craftsmanship, the fabric feels lightweight yet high-quality, striking that balance between being breathable and cosy. The cotton is super soft to the touch, and the subtle jacquard weave features delicate white dot stitching that runs across a gentle sage green background. My only concern is that the dotted pattern is quite difficult to see on the website, so please double-check if it's the right choice for you before making a purchase. It looks especially good paired with my light wood Dusk bedside tables and a scalloped-edge rug from Dunelm I picked up earlier in the year - think soft, soothing tones and a bit of tonal layering. Material: Cotton Pillowcases included? No Piglet in Bed Linen Bedding - from £39 Linen bedding is always a wise choice - it's not only temperature-regulating but also durable, breathable, and moisture-wicking, becoming softer with each wash. As a shopping writer, I've tried numerous linen sets, but I always return to one brand: Piglet in Bed. Indeed, these sheets are an investment (a linen bundle starts from £237), but in my experience, the quality is unparalleled. Made in Portugal, Piglet's bedding is woven from a luxurious blend of European flax linen and long-staple cotton, providing that perfect balance of softness and structure. Thoughtful details, such as coconut shell button fastenings, add charm, while the fabric feels soft, breathable, and incredibly comforting against the skin. They also wash beautifully - no shrinking, no stiffness, just increasingly lived-in luxury. Every colour is beautifully muted and effortlessly stylish, too. The soothing Elderberry Stripe set is currently adorning my bed, adding a subtle statement to my room.
