Every summer, my husband, the kids, and I fly to London to visit my mum for a couple of weeks to spend some much-needed quality time together, which is absolutely glorious and I cannot wait. The only thing that can be tricky is the summer heat in the bedroom that we sleep in when we come to stay. And it is hot in London right now.
Our bedroom is in a gorgeous, converted loft — a gorgeous, converted south-facing loft. It can get seriously hot up there, and we have had to learn a few tricks to cool down the room to make it more manageable to sleep in it at night (and we've learned some of them the hard way).
