Cooling Pillow

You may wish to have a look at our bolster pillowcases here, as these are a little larger and may give the pillow more room:

Please note, the Cooling Pillow is still based around standard pillow dimensions, so a bolster pillowcase may not be an exact fit, but it could help reduce the bunching you are experiencing.

This is a firm pillow with a box edge construction, which means it holds its shape and height well rather than compressing flat. It's specifically designed for side sleepers and those with a larger frame who need their head and neck properly supported to stay aligned with the spine. If you prefer a softer, sinkable feel, this probably isn't the right choice, it's built for structure and support.

The cooling fabric gives you that immediate fresh feeling when you first rest your head, and the breathable construction helps disperse heat throughout the night rather than trapping it. It won't stay cold like an ice pack, but the moisture-wicking fibres and airflow design mean heat doesn't build up the way it does with a standard pillow. Most hot sleepers will notice a difference in how often they need to flip the pillow over.

The cooling effect has been independently tested and confirmed to deliver a measurable cool-to-touch sensation. It's not a gel pad or insert, the cooling property is in the fabric itself, so the surface feels noticeably fresh when you lie down. It won't feel ice-cold, but there is a genuine temperature difference compared to a standard polyester pillow.

The best pillow for hot sleepers is one designed to draw heat away from the head and encourage airflow during the night. The Belledorm Cooling Pillow is an excellent choice, as it uses cooling fabric technology and breathable construction to help reduce heat build-up and keep the sleep surface feeling fresh.

Its supportive box-edge design helps maintain comfortable head and neck alignment while the cooling material works to regulate temperature, making it particularly suitable for those who tend to overheat while sleeping.
