We stayed in a holiday home which had the Secret Linen Store bedding in so got to feel the benefits of linen bed linen before buying and when we got home I was straight on the web to find this elusive brand of linen, I found it, bought it and so far in what has been a weird summer of hot, chilly, wet, humid, cold it has been fab, we have the duvet cover on without a duvet in on warm nights and then pop a duvet in for the chillier ones and it has been great at making a more breathable environment (if that makes sense) equally for a woman going through the delights of the hot flush stage of menopause the move to linen has been a godsend not one hot flush has resulted in the level of sweating I was having with cotton sheets. Can't recommend linen bedlinen enough bought from the Secret Linen Store where quality is excellent, delivery efficient and end product absolutely brilliant.
