The Cumbrian Herringbone Weave is a flatweave herringbone carpet made from 100% undyed wool — entirely free from synthetic dyes and chemical treatments. Its bold geometric pattern makes it a natural choice for stairs and landings, and its shared yarn and colourways with the Cumbrian Loop make the two products the ideal pairing for a coordinated whole-home scheme.

Description

The herringbone is one of the most enduring patterns in textile history — a bold, directional geometry that has suited everything from tweed suiting to parquet flooring for centuries. In the Cumbrian Herringbone Weave, that classic pattern is woven from 100% undyed wool sourced from Herdwick sheep, into a flatweave carpet that is as hardwearing as it is visually striking.

Herdwick sheep are native to the Lake District fells — a tough, hardy breed whose wool has been prized for its density and durability for generations. The Cumbrian Herringbone Weave draws directly on those qualities. The flatweave construction, combined with the inherent resilience of Herdwick wool, produces a carpet with a firm, flat surface that handles high-traffic areas exceptionally well. It is particularly well suited to stairs and landings, where its pattern makes a confident design statement and its construction stands up to the concentrated wear of a staircase.

The colour comes entirely from the natural variation of the wool fleece — no synthetic dyes, no chemical treatments of any kind. The pile is plastic-free. Six colourways carry the names of the Lake District fells that define the breed's home territory — Blencathra, Catbells, Helvellyn, Scafell, Skiddaw and Bowfell — spanning a range of naturally inspired tones from cool greys to deeper, earthier neutrals.

The Cumbrian Herringbone Weave and Cumbrian Loop are made from exactly the same yarn in the same six colourways — a deliberate design decision that makes the two products the ideal pairing for a coordinated whole-home scheme. Use the herringbone to make a feature of the stairs and landing, and carry the same colour through into living rooms and bedrooms in the softer loop construction. The colour continuity between the two creates a natural sense of flow through the home without the rooms feeling identical.

One thing to note on the backing: the flatweave construction of the Cumbrian Herringbone Weave requires a conventional carpet backing rather than the lightweight Envirobac backing used across the rest of the Cumbrian range. This is a straightforward requirement of the flatweave construction rather than a compromise on quality.

As with all natural fibre products, we recommend ordering samples before purchasing — the undyed colourways are best assessed in your own space and under your own lighting conditions, and natural variation between fleece batches means colour can shift subtly over time.

Delivery and Shipping

Orders to most mainland UK addresses will be free of charge for orders over £150. Surcharges may apply to Highlands & Islands addresses please contact us and we would be happy to provide confirmation.

To continue to reduce our environmental impact many of the products we sell are manufactured in small batches and shipped direct from the manufacturer, therefore delivery timescales may vary but generally cork flooring orders will be delivered within 2-3 days while carpets are usually delivered in approximately 2 weeks.

We use specialist flooring couriers that pool deliveries by geographical areas to ensure the most efficient delivery run. If you need your flooring in a hurry, please contact us and we will do our best to help.

Standard delivery is offered Monday – Friday and will be to the kerbside only. Drivers may need assistance to offload larger items such as carpet rolls. If this is not suitable we can arrange enhanced delivery options but these will usually incur extra costs and may delay your delivery. Please contact us if you need a custom delivery estimate.

If you would like to check the stock and timescales of a specific product, please use the contact us form.

Thank you for the three samples it was a difficult choice they are all beautiful. The bathroom renovation team will be placing their order for Breeze in due course

Peta J.

Useful sample, efficient service

Bob H.

So pleased with this product and will hopefully be using for another project too. Also cut up the offcuts for coasters which look amazing!!

Beth

Quality of the carpet sample is very good and looks nice.

Jason

The staff are very responsive, helpful and informative and I've only had good experiences with them. They know their stuff.

James R.

Joe at Flooring By Nature was extremely helpful & knowledgeable about their products. He was able to explain the relative environmental impact of a range of products, and his experience & assistance was essential in deciding exactly what items we needed for our job.

David Q.

Thank you so much to Joe at Natural flooring for making my bespoke herringbone Cumbrian weave rug. I am delighted with it I would highly recommend this company for service, value and delivery of a high quality product. Excellent!

Mandy

Fantastic

Emma A.

Very excited to receive my samples so promptly I love the quality and SO support our wonderful Cumbrian heritage breed sheep! I am researching a local fitter to get measured up for ordering- can’t wait!

Great service from this Company and my underlay was delivered very quickly 👍 Great quality product too 👍 We purchased the"Springbond underlay" as it was recommended by Allergy UK. It is made using hypo-allergenic fibres, without the use of additional toxic chemicals and solvents that give off V.O.C's. This was very important to me, as 2 weeks prior we had purchased underlay for our bedroom, from another provider and it DID give off toxic VOC's. I was almost hospitalised, as I awoke in the night struggling to breathe! This was the first time I had experienced this with my health. I would definitely recommend this Company, all round Great Service at a good price too 👍 My only recommendation, would be to include the following details in the product description: -the fact that it is anti-microbial, contains hypoallergenic fibres and that no additional toxic chemicals or solvents are used in its manufacture. -the product is innovative and has been awarded Allergy UK’s prestigious Seal of Approval after undergoing rigorous scientific testing. -SpringBond is the first floor covering underlay to achieve the Allergy UK Seal of Approval. This allows people who suffer from dust, dust mite allergies and struggle with harmful indoor pollution to confidently choose an underlay that helps them reduce allergens in their home. -this SpringBond product contains no polyurethane foam, so there are no harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds), meaning users also benefit from better air quality wherever it’s fitted. It's a lot to say! But when you suffer from these allergies it is so important, especially when it affects your health. Also, I initially found this product was hard to find for sale. If it's hypoallergenic benefits/ no VOC's had been detailed, that may have made it easier. Thanks again 😀

The cork planks make a fantastic new floor in our two bathrooms that are warm underfoot and look like marble or limestone flooring. It was easily laid in our Georgian townhouse over the existing timber boards with the separating cork layer and the overall product is not only great practically and visually but also environmentally. Flooring by Nature provided an excellent service and assisted in the suitable selection Will be using again in due course that is the ultimate recommendation.

Jeremy B.

Fantastic company - brilliant advice from Joe, who took time to answer all of my questions about the flooring, especially the carbon footprint and suitability for those with allergies. The flooring arrived promptly and is extremely high quality, and I would highly recommend this company who genuinely care about their customers and the environment - thanks Joe and team.

M S.

Very helpful company who went the extra mile, even on a remnant. Would certainly recommend to anyone looking for a natural carpet!

josh f.

Spoke with Joe, Very helpful and knowledgeable, We are a SEN School and need information on some flooring requirements, Joe talked me through what they could and couldn't do for which is very helpful and refreshing. We wanted to ensure we were being ethical in terms of carbon foot print and sustainability and Joe explained that as a company they try to provide options that such as natural fibres and products that do not cause problems in the environment. This was really good to know as some of our students have sensory needs as well as allergies. Thank you Joe for your time and professionality.
