Rugs to protect your floor and give your home a cosy feel

Give your hardwood floors a pillowy soft upgrade by adding rugs that bring a warmer, more homely feel to your space. Whether you’re a renter looking to cover tired carpets and protect your flooring from furniture scratches or a parent creating a cushioned play area, a well-placed rug can transform your room. It also helps define open-plan spaces, creating clear zones while making larger rooms with tall ceilings feel more intimate and quieter.

Choose the right rug: thick pile to flatweave

Place a shaggy rug over wood or laminate floors to help retain heat and create a cosy surface during winter. Position them beside the bed for a soft and comfortable start to your day. Thicker piles can also help absorb footstep noise and reduce echo in busy homes. Flatweave rugs are ideal under dining tables, helping catch crumbs while protecting the floor from sliding chairs. Heat-set polypropylene rugs feel soft under your feet and are easy to clean, making them great for busy areas in your home like hallways and living rooms. Durable runners protect your landings from anything that gets brought in from the day muddy shoes or pet paws.

How to find the right rug for your home

When choosing the right rug for your room, make sure it’s large enough for the entire area of your furniture to sit on. In dining areas, the rug should extend far enough so that chairs stay on it even when pulled out. Many rugs from the range come with anti-slip backing to help keep them in place on smooth surfaces. For added stability, using a rug grip or non-slip underlay can provide extra security on hard floors.
