Dunelm’s curtains ‘block out the heat’ and ‘shut out light’

As summer temperatures increase and daylight stretches well into the evening, many people find themselves battling two challenges: keeping the heat out, and blocking sunlight to get a good night’s sleep. Whether it’s trying to maintain a cool, comfortable living space or block out the early morning sun, finding an effective and stylish solution can make all the difference. 

Now, shoppers are in luck as they can grab the Luna Brushed Blackout Eyelet Curtains for between £28-£130 from Dunelm – depending on the size these choose.

Designed for both function and style, this pair of Luna curtains feature a soft, brushed wool-effect fabric that adds a touch of elegance to any room. With an eyelet header, they hang in neat, even folds, making them an easy choice for modern or classic interiors.

Whether it’s dressing up a lounge, bedroom or home office, these curtains bring a polished, cosy feel to spaces. What sets them apart is their blackout lining and temperature-smart design as the blackout coating helps shut out unwanted light – ideal for lazy weekends or uniterrupted movie nights – while the thermal layer works year-round to maintain a comfortable indoor climate.

In winter, they keep out the cold, and in summer, they reduce heat from direct sunlight, creating a more energy-efficient home. 

If these aren’t the ones for everyone, shoppers could instead try the Habitat Blackout Plain Eyelet Curtains in Dove Grey from Argos for £30 which are lined to keep light out and also have soft, wide folds and are easy to install. Another option is the Taylor Blackout Eyelet Curtains for £19.99 from The Range which have a modern eyelet header, effectively blocks out light and has a textured fabric.

The Luna curtains from Dunelm have been rated a high 4.6 out of 5 star rating from almost 5,000 reviews. One person said: “These are great curtains. Good blackout quality to shut out light in the bedroom. Lovely colour too.”

“Really pleased with these curtains. Exactly as described. Nice fabric, heavy, blackout curtains that have improved my bedroom and my sleep!” said another person.

Another shopper wrote: “Bought these for our teenage daughter’s room. They match her feature wall perfectly. Great price for a pair of blackout curtains. The brushed effect makes them soft and feminine for her room. We went for the Rose and it’s a great colour. Looks exactly like the photos online.”

Not everyone felt the same way however as one shopper said: “I thought for the price of the curtains they would be more plush.”

Another said: “They are OK, right colour but very rigid not supple and fluid material.”

The Luna Brushed Blackout Eyelet Curtains are available from Dunelm.
