3 tips for sleeping well in a holiday home

What can I do to sleep well in the holiday home?

Well, let’s start at the beginning: how many people can claim that their daily routine brings them fun and joy every second of their lives?

Tip number 1 for sleeping well in a holiday home: leave everyday life at home if possible!

It can be assumed that the number of people mentioned above is in the per mille range, whereby perhaps even these ‘other’ per mille are helpful. What every person needs in order to maintain a reasonably good mood, not to mention fun and joy, are fixed points of reference. A holiday home is one such fixed point, whether it is your own or a rented holiday home. Just the thought of making it the centre of your long-awaited and certainly well-deserved holiday during the holiday weeks makes the hours between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. or 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. during the week a little brighter.

Tip number 2 for sleeping well in a holiday home: Let’s embrace the new surroundings!

Holiday homes also tend to be located in scenic surroundings, such as by the sea or in low mountain ranges like the Black Forest. This naturally leads to further pleasant thoughts. A day at the beach or a hike with a mountain panorama in view, and finally returning to the holiday home to sink into fresh linen bedding in the evening and encounter the local spirits and gods in your dreams, be it the sea god Poseidon or the forest spirit Rübezahl. or even mermaids or fairies, depending on which dream image seems more pleasant.

Tip number 3 for sleeping well in a holiday home: you sleep better in good bed linen!

But how does fresh bed linen get to the holiday home? Owners and tenants of holiday homes sometimes have a logistical problem when it comes to bed linen. It is either a problem of storage logistics or transport logistics. Storing last year’s bed linen in the cupboard of the holiday home, even if it has been freshly washed, is likely to result in a rather ‘musty’ sleeping experience, so the bed linen is brought along, which in turn means more luggage.

Nevertheless, the latter solution seems to be the better choice, because perhaps you have just spotted some new linen bed linen whose look and material properties seem ideal for the conditions in your holiday home. For example, bed linen made of linen or half-linen.

If the holiday home is the perfect base in the ideal holiday setting, then linen bedding is the perfect base for what will hopefully be the ideal bed in the holiday home. Cool on hot summer nights by the sea or pleasantly warm on cool mountain nights – linen bedding can do all this without air conditioning or heating. The trick is that linen can do something that other fabrics cannot, really cannot. Even modern functional fabrics are only as good as linen to a limited extent, which has been proven to have been processed into fabric around 30,000 years ago. Other fabrics store or repel moisture. Other fabrics conduct heat or cold through them or block them. Linen does things differently. Moisture is immediately conducted through the fabric according to its thickness, neither stored nor repelled. Body heat is retained or slowly released according to the thickness of the fabric. The result is a perfect microclimate under the duvet, regardless of the macroclimate around the bed.

So, before you take over your holiday home for the coming weeks, it’s worth taking a look at specialists in linen bed linen such as Libeco, Genix, Hoffmann or Schlitzer-Leinen, to name just a few examples from our collection. You’re sure to find the right bed linen design for your holiday home.
