Choose the perfect cottage flooring solution

By Wilson Sunderland


If you own a cottage or period property, then you can't really beat solid wood flooring as a floor covering solution. This is because it not only looks beautiful, but also feels wonderful too. There are plenty of options to choose from when you go to a wood specialist.

A wide range of wood flooring types are available for you as you consider the style that would work best in your cottage setting. The wood choices you can select from when you turn to a UK manufacturer include oak, walnut, ash and red cherry, with each offering their own benefits.

Solid wood flooring is great for any traditional home and it brings a certain warmth and appeal that no other floor covering, be it a carpet, rug or laminate floor, can give. Check out the advantages of each type of wood to find the grade that suits your dcor.

Out of the three main grades people select from, solid oak is probably the most popular. Your cottage will benefit from a distinctive look whether you opt for prime oak, rustic or tavern. Walnut is the most preferred choice if you want a floor that is a bit darker.

Alternatively, you may like to consider two other flooring choices, which come in the form of red cherry and ash. Each has its own benefits so it might be worthwhile to research both of them to see which would make the most difference in your home environment.

To provide the perfect finish, once the wood flooring has been fitted in your cottage, you might wish to go for solid skirting and architrave. And something else which would really compliment your wood floor are oak doors, which would certainly add to its appearance.
