We went into Rugmart having seen hundreds of rugs online and couldn't find one anywhere. Then we searched for a rug shop in Guildford, where we live, and to our surprise, discovered Rugmart! If only we'd found them earlier. We left after 20 minutes with a rug! Romin was brilliant! Our words as we left were: 'All that time spent searching online!'

We arrived not much longer than half hour before closing time and were provided with great service and advice. We didn't feel rushed and our children were very well accommodated. We came away with a hand made large rug which is now looking good in our front room.

I couldn't believe that they had over 10,000 rugs in stock, but after visiting I would say that was a low estimate! The place has 3 floors, filled with rolls and piles of rugs everywhere you look. It's absolutely full but very well organised. If you have a good idea of what you are looking for, just describe it and they will take you round showing you everything similar. They knew all the sizes they came in, and whether they had anything out back if it wasn't on display. Highly recommended if you are looking for a rug!
