Insulation in 30's houses!

We have a solid well built thirties house which for some reason seems to specialise in freezing cold external walls. I've lived in similar houses before but never had this problem. Just wondering if anyone else has suffered from this and found a way of dealing with it? Insulation companies can't suggest anything as they aren't cavity walls. I've been resorting to moving bookcases and sofas against the external walls, and filling corner cupboards with clothes, but still the walls are freezing to the touch and horrible to sit near even with the central heating on, and of course a lot of valuable heat is being lost... any suggestions gratefully received.
