The earliest known flooring is the humble rug. Indeed, an example still exists which dates from 8,000 BC.
Today the beauty of rugs has been rediscovered. Whether traditional hand knotted, hand-tufted or the modern machine made variety, a rug will set off any interior. The growing interest in wood, marble and terracotta is creating a new demand for rugs.
Here at The Old Mill we have a huge collection of rugs. Man made or pure wool, traditional or contemporary, plain or patterned, tight pile or luxurious long pile you’ll definitely be able to find the rug you’ve been looking for at exactly the right price too. If it’s not in stock don’t forget we can order it for you.
We stock well known brands such as Kathy Ireland Home, Calvin Klein, Nourison and Mastercraft; if we don’t have what you want in stock then we can order it for you. And you’ll also find a wonderful choice of children’s rugs.
Looking for a space-saving bed with storage to put in a smaller bedroom?
If the idea of a pull-down bed conjures up images of cramped bedsits, or if a bed with drawers makes you think of tired student divans, it’s time to rethink your preconceptions. Today’s clever bed designs manage to combine style and practicality with aplomb. There are now many multi-functional designs and canny under-bed storage solutions to help you make the most of your space.
Your bed is likely to be the most prominent piece of furniture in your bedroom, so choose a bed type that fits with the style and size of the room.
Make sure to measure your space then decide how large or small a bed you’d like – or can fit – in your bedroom.
Measure your bedroom if you’re moving into a new home, allowing ample space at either side of where the bed will fit to accommodate bedside tables or other furniture.
We carry a great range of space saving beds from Silent Night, Rest Assured, Burgess Beds and Sealy. You can choose from four options; two drawers, four drawers, four drawer continental (2 large and 2 half size drawers) and ottoman beds.
For beautifully made bedroom furniture, look no further than The Old Mill. We have over 30 different collections for you to choose from so you’re bound to find your perfect dream bedroom.
The bedroom is the one room in the house where you can be truly indulgent…it is your own space to relax and enjoy.
Furnishing and decorating your bedroom is without doubt one of the most personal forms of expression that you can undertake in your home. It’s is all about your own personal taste and discovering your particular individual style – therefore, it is almost impossible to offer a hard and fast set of rules.
What is important is that your bedroom reflects you and your personality that’s why we have made sure we have plenty of choice both in style and price.
Think about what you want from the bedroom – is it a cool, calm space or a more dynamic and sumptuous room? Once you know what type of environment you would like to create, you can then choose the right style for you.
Accessories are a wonderfully easy way of bringing colour and pattern into a space and can be changed seasonally to reflect the seasons. For the final touch perhaps add a silk quilt or wool throw in the cooler months and colourful cushions in the spring.

The Boho Collection from Ulster Carpets is the epitome of style. The vintage inspired
designs are an ode to all things retro, reworked to create contemporary, practical axminster for the
21st century home.
Each of the six designs offer their own quirky personality, brought together by the soft pastel
shades of the “heritage” colour palette to create a unique and stunning collection.
Choose between the playful leaf pattern of “Rhapsody”, the statement zigzag of “Tribe” or the
sophisticated houndstooth of “Chic”.
The distinctive chevrons of “Hemingway” add character to any stairway, while “Bloomsbury” brings a little bit of the outdoors in with its beautiful seedhead design.
The contemporary plaid design of Hamilton offers a fresh take on the classic pattern, incorporating
the stunning pastel shades of “Tea Rose”, “Summer Breeze” and “Apple Blossom” alongside the
neutral tones of “Moon Shimmer” and “Honesty”.
The result is a unique and eye catching floor covering, which is sure to make a style statement in any home.
Made from hardwearing 80% wool / 20% nylon mix, Boho Collection has been manufactured to
last as long as the iconic designs which inspired it. As you would expect from an Ulster carpet, this
combination ensures a luxurious feel which is suitable for heavy domestic wear.
All colourways are available in 4m, 3m, 2m and 1m colour-matching widths enabling a reduction in
waste and cost by using Ulster’s multi-width offering. Boho Collection is designed to coordinate

Did you know May Day has roots in pagan Anglo-Saxon customs and the pagan festival Beltane, which marks the beginning of summer.
Typically, on May Day villages and towns across the UK now mark the beginning of springtime fertility.
This would usually be celebrated with large gatherings of communities, villages holding fetes and other fun activities. The May Queen is also crowned on May Day, and often sees local schoolgirls compete for the crown in honour of Flora, the Roman goddess.
But where does maypole dancing come into all this?
Maypole dancing is another tradition celebrated on May Day, and is seen as a way of saying farewell to winter. Even though summer does not begin until June, May Day is a celebration of things coming to life.
Enjoy your weekend.
