Personally I would stick with carpet, wood floors are only a gimmick thanks in most part to the DIY shoes on telly. And if you have to cover it up with rugs then I see even less point in it.
I would not have it in my house. I have one tiled floor in the conservatory and that is it, even my kitchen and bathroom are carpeted.

I have real wood floor in my flat, not the nasty laminate stuff, in the late summer it was excellent nice and cool, but in cold weather, it was very, very cold under  foot.



That looks a bit clean and tidy. Have you been doing "pink jobs"? :o

Get some reclaimed Parquet flooring. It took me ages to clean the old bitumin off the back of the stuff I bought and ages to lay it because wifey wanted a herringbone effect but once done I think it looks the dogs and it didn't cost that much to do our 18ft X 21ft sitting room

Actually no, I've been doing Pink jobs  :o

That was just before my flat warming party, although the day after it looked a bit different!  ::)
