Karpet Mills partner with Northumberland Wildlife Trust to support ‘Northumberlandia’ Visitor Centre renovation

Popular North-East tourist location ‘Northumberlandia, have recently undergone a full renovation at their visitor centre in Cramlington, with a helping hand from Karpet Mills and Northumberland Wildlife Trust

The visitor centre has been closed to members of the public whilst a team of volunteers from Northumberland Wildlife Trust worked round the clock to re-decorate the inside of the centre, revamp the outdoor seating area and toilets and upgrade the kitchen to enable staff to serve the increasing visitor numbers.
The centre now also sports brand new, high quality flooring that was donated and installed by Trust corporate members Karpet Mills.

Joel Dickinson, Karpet Mills Director said “As a long-time supporter of the Northumberland Wildlife Trust, we were delighted to get involved with the renovation work taking place at the Northumberlandia Visitor Centre. We hope that that the refurbishment project, including the new flooring, will ensure that the visitor centre remains as popular and successful as ever, into this summer and beyond.”

Speaking about the newly opened centre, Sheila Sharp, Northumberland Wildlife Trust Head of Marketing and Fundraising says: “Since Northumberlandia opened almost seven years ago, hundreds of thousands of people have walked through the gates and sat in the visitor centre, so it was time for a re-vamp.

“I am delighted with the tireless efforts of our volunteers who worked non-stop to ensure the Centre was only closed for three weeks to minimise inconvenience, and to Karpet Mills for the donation of the new flooring and its fitters for its speedy installation - such support is amazing.”

Karpet Mills Add Special Touch to Historic Country House in Northumberland

Karpet Mills, the North East’s leading quality carpet retailer, recently completed a special project for Hesleyside Hall, a 14th century stately home located in the heart of Northumberland.

With the assistance of world-famous carpet manufacturer Hugh Mackay, Karpet Mills were able to replace the current time-worn, antique stair carpet that had been part of the home for over a century, by creating a bespoke, produce-to-order, unique carpet runner that replicated the original design.

“We understand what our customers want and try to provide that in a simple and efficient way, no matter how big or small the job is” says Karpet Mills Director, Conrad Dickinson “We have a very simple philosophy – sell quality carpets at low, low prices – backed up by first rate customer service – the customer is key.” He adds, “We have buyers across Europe sourcing products at crazy prices, and due to our years of experience in the industry, we have strong connections that allow us to take on specialist projects like the bespoke stair carpet for Hesleyside. For customers who haven’t visited us before, we invite them to see why we have been successfully selling carpets for over a century – old fashioned service; modern day, competitive prices.”  

Located in the heart of the Northumberland National Park, Hesleyside has been the ancestral home of the Border Reiver Charlton family since 1343. The current mansion, which is a Grade II listed building, was built in 1719.
Hesleyside Hall is currently managed by William and Anna Charlton, who have carried out extensive conservation and upgrade work and diversified the estate to include bed and breakfast shepherd's huts in the grounds, and is now a popular spot for visiting tourists from all over the UK and abroad.

“It seems anything is possible at Karpet Mills.” Says Anna Charlton, owner of Hesleyside Hall. She added “We were very concerned about replacing a very worn and ornate antique stair carpet and had almost given up hope of finding anything similar.  Conrad and the team used their wealth of experience and contacts and found a manufacturer in the UK who could, not only copy the exact design but produce something of very high quality that was still affordable. The service at Karpet Mills was amazing and it was an absolutely pleasure working with them. The carpet is beautiful, in keeping and will last another generation.”

Karpet Mills combines the experience gleaned from over a century trading with the modern-day expectations of quality and service to provide the full package for every customer, with all three branches, Kingston Park, Hetton-le-Hole and Gateshead, trading 7 days a week.

Prince Charles Spearheads Campaign For Wool

HRH Prince Charles is leading a campaign to re-establish wool as the premier fibre. The five year project embraces fashion, upholstery and insulation as well as carpet and is designed to encourage greater use of wool.

The campaign already has global support from, among others, the Australian Wool Industry, New Zealand Wool, the British Wool Marketing Board, the American Wool Association and that of Canada.

Since 70% of all wool grown in the UK goes into carpet, the Carpet Foundation is an enthusiastic supporter of the initiative and is playing a key role on the steering committee. The highlight of the first year is a Wool Week which runs from October 11th – 17th and which will see major high street brands including Aquascutum, Debenhams, Jigsaw and John Lewis promoting wool in-store with POSM. There will also be an intensive PR campaign to thrust wool into the public consciousness.

Commenting on the initiative, Carpet Foundation Chief Executive Mike Hardiman said: “Prince Charles has long been concerned about the low prices that farmers receive for fleeces and indeed first came up with the idea on receipt of his wool cheque. 

The carpet industry consumes the most wool so naturally this is a move we welcome and we will be doing everything we can to ensure it is a success. We are looking at various ways of capitalising upon it and our manufacturers are right behind it – who wouldn’t be! We will be undertaking phase 2 of our Lifecycle Assessment soon and there are several other ideas in the pipeline. This has to be good news for UK based manufacturers who produce predominantly wool rich carpet.”

“Investing for the future, for our customers and our staff” - Major store refurbishment for Karpet Mills Durham branch

Karpet Mills, the North East’s leading quality carpet retailer, have continued to build on an already successful 2018, by undertaking a full showroom refurbishment at their branch in Hetton-le-Hole, County Durham.

The work undertaken has included brand new suspended ceiling with LED lighting throughout the two-floor premises, installation of multiple new premium carpet displays and brand-new staff kitchen for the Karpet Mills staff to use.
Joel Dickinson, Karpet Mills Director said “We are delighted with the recent refurbishment work at our Hetton-Le-Hole branch. We hope that the improvements will help enhance customer experience in store and have allowed us to maximise our display options, helping to provide even more choice to our customers and better working conditions for our staff.”


Karpet Mills already started the year positively, with the launch of new and exciting store in Hexham, Northumberland. The new venture marks a return to the family roots for the owners of Karpet Mills, with the family business starting in the Tyne Valley region in 1878.

With stores in Newcastle, Gateshead, Sunderland and now Hexham, the 6th generation family run business is able to offer even more quality carpet and flooring deals. “We offer consistently high-quality products at consistently low prices. Recent growth of our business has significantly boosted our buying power. We source ‘A-Grade’ stock from across Europe and buy in bulk to pass the savings directly to our customers” these are the words of Joel Dickinson, Operations Director of Karpet Mills, the North East’s biggest stockist of quality carpets. He adds, “We are able to sell famous branded products at prices not normally seen by the general public. We sell Axminsters, heavy weight 80/20 wool twists and stainfree saxonies to our customers at better than wholesale cost.”

Karpet Mills have recently launched their Big Winter Price Crash, with up to 75% off carpets and flooring in all stores, with huge savings available across all ranges, including carpets, remnants, vinyl, laminate and rugs.
Karpet Mills combines the experience gleaned from over a century trading with the modern-day expectations of quality and service to provide the full package for every customer. The new Hexham branch will follow the pattern set by the Kingston Park, Hetton-Le-Hole & Gateshead branches and trade 7 days a week.

Visit Karpet Mills, at Market Street, Hetton-Le-Hole (only 10 minutes from Sunderland and Durham), Airport Industrial Estate, Kingston Park, Newcastle Upon Tyne, Tyne Bridge Retail Park Gateshead (next to Matalan) and the NEW Hexham branch, located at Gilesgate Hexham (less than 5 minutes from Tesco).
