To struggle to sleep anywhere but my own house?

I always struggle in hotels etc. Dh and the kids sleep soundly and I toss and turn for hours, then I'm grumpy as hell the next day. Staying in someone else's house is way worse. Thoughts like "what if I need a wee in the night and wake everyone?!" make me overthink it and then bang, of course, I need a wee!

At the moment, we've got five nights in a random hired house with my bloody in-laws as well. They drive me beyond insane, especially mil. I need sleep for survival here. (The annoying small talk, her stupid comments, her babying of my 38year old husband. That's a whole other thread).

At home I sleep really soundly, 7-9 hours a night and I'm fine at my parents' because I grew up there.

I try playing on my phone but that's not going to help really is it?! I just can't relax in a strange bed.

Not really an aibu I know, but I need an outlet!
