Quite right.  Having had a baby thermometer in the bedroom for much of the last few years, I've become quite an expert when it comes to room temperatures.  For a good night's sleep, 16 or 17 degrees is about perfect.  Above 20 degrees, it starts getting little warm, but I'm usually OK up to about 23 degrees.  Anything above that, and the duvet has to come off and I don't sleep anything like as soundly.

I've also noticed that while modern houses tend to be quite good at holding warmth in winter, they also do the same in summer...which is a real pain.  The temperature on the upper floor of our house is a good 4 to 5 degrees warmer at night that downstairs.  I'm guessing this must have something to do with the roof void radiating heat down from above.  Leaving windows open makes little difference and the room temperature at the end of the night is barely lower than at the start.

Anyone have any decent tips?  We only suffer like this for 8 weeks a year or so, so it's hardly worth investing in air con etc.

I edited my post before I saw this.  Believe it or not, it's been tried.  Doesn't work.  At all.

Get one of those desk fans. I have one at home and have it on me all night. Creates a lovely temperature and i quite like the sound and wind rushing over me as i go to sleep. Turn it off though and it feels like a sauna.

I like wearing flip-flops. Infinitely preferable to having sweaty feet.
