A rug can transform a bedroom. It adds warmth to hard flooring, gives you something soft to step onto first thing in the morning, and helps to soften sound so the room feels calmer and quieter. A rug also helps to anchor your bed and bring the whole room together, tying in your bedding, curtains and furniture. Because the bedroom is a place for rest, comfort is usually the priority, which is why plush shaggy and faux fur rugs are such popular choices, though a patterned rug can add personality and style too.

How to choose a bedroom rug

Start with where the rug will go. Many people place a large rug under the bed so that it extends out on both sides and at the foot, giving you something soft to step onto from every direction. As a guide, a 160x230cm rug can sit under the lower two-thirds of a double bed, while larger beds such as king and super king often suit a rug up to 200x290cm. If you prefer something smaller, a pair of smaller rugs, such as 60x120cm or 80x150cm, placed on either side of the bed works well and costs less. Next, think about the feel and the look. Soft shaggy and faux fur rugs give a deep, cosy finish, while low-pile patterned rugs are easier to vacuum and suit busy bedrooms. Soft neutrals and gentle blues or greens help a bedroom feel calm, and you can browse by colour, including our natural rugs, grey rugs and pink rugs. Shoppers often ask how to look after a shaggy rug. Vacuum it gently, brush it with a hand brush to keep the pile looking full, and trim any loose thread with scissors rather than pulling it, and always check the care instructions on the product page, as some designs should be wiped clean with a cloth. If your floors are hard, look for a rug with a non-slip backing, or use a suitable underlay to keep it in place.

To complete the room, our duvet covers & sets and throws & blankets are designed to layer beautifully with a soft rug.

Common questions shoppers ask:

• How far should a rug go under the bed? Many people place the rug under the lower two-thirds of the bed, so it extends out at both sides and the foot. This gives you a soft surface to step onto from every side.
• What is the best rug for a bedroom? A soft, plush rug such as a shaggy or faux fur design is a popular choice, as comfort underfoot matters most. A low-pile patterned rug is a good alternative if you prefer something easier to clean.
• How do I clean a shaggy rug? Vacuum it gently, brush the pile with a hand brush and trim any loose thread with scissors. Always follow the care instructions on the product page, as some designs should be wiped clean with a cloth.
