The Heritage Breed carpet is inspired by some of Britain's oldest and rarest hill sheep — eight colourways, each named after the breed whose fleece tones inspired it. Made from 100% undyed British wool with a plastic-free pile, it is a soft, luxurious cut pile carpet that carries a provenance story unlike anything else in our range.

Description

Britain has been producing wool for centuries, and some of its most extraordinary fleece comes from breeds that most people have never heard of. The Heritage Breed carpet is a celebration of that quiet legacy — a carpet range inspired by eight rare and heritage British hill sheep breeds, each colourway carrying the name of the animal whose natural fleece tones shaped it.

Balwen. Cotswold. Kerry Hill. Manx. Moorit. Norfolk Horn. Ryeland. Soay.

These are not marketing names — they are real British sheep breeds, many of them rare, some of them endangered, all of them producing wool with a natural colour and character entirely their own. The palette of the Heritage Breed range is defined entirely by those natural fleece tones, blended by skilled manufacturers to produce colourways of extraordinary depth — warm moorland browns, soft greys, creamy naturals and rich earthy tones that no chemical dye could convincingly replicate.

The construction is a cut pile — softer and more yielding underfoot than a loop pile, with a velvet-like surface that responds to light in a way that makes the natural colour variations particularly visible and beautiful. The pile is 100% undyed British wool, entirely free from synthetic dyes, flame retardants and moth prevention treatments. The pile is plastic-free. The carpet uses a lightweight Envirobac backing that uses significantly less material than a standard carpet backing while maintaining full performance.

This is a carpet for someone who wants to know exactly where their floor came from — who values provenance, craft and natural beauty over trends. It suits period properties and contemporary interiors equally well, precisely because its palette is drawn from the landscape rather than from a designer's colour chart.

As with all natural fibre products, some variation between batches is inherent and expected — this is a feature of natural material rather than a defect, and contributes to the uniqueness of every installation. We strongly recommend ordering samples before purchasing, particularly as the cut pile surface and natural colour depth of the Heritage Breed is something that needs to be seen in person and in your own lighting conditions to be fully appreciated.

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.

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.
