Axminster Carpets
At Chris Davidson Carpets, we’re proud to supply and fit the renowned Axminster Carpets range here in Carlisle. With over 250 years of heritage, Axminster represents the finest in traditional British carpet manufacturing—combining timeless design with durability and exceptional quality.
Why Choose Axminster Carpets?
Axminster is a name synonymous with craftsmanship. Their carpets are made using traditional weaving techniques that lock the pile into place, creating incredibly resilient, hard-wearing flooring without compromising on comfort.
Here’s why Axminster remains a top choice:
- British-made using locally sourced wool
- Woven construction for enhanced durability
- Classic and contemporary designs
- Natural stain resistance and insulating properties
- Ideal for high-traffic areas or statement rooms
Looking for traditional elegance or a bold heritage pattern? Axminster delivers both—perfect for hallways, dining rooms, stair runners or living spaces that deserve a little extra detail.


Timeless designs for every home
From tartans and floral motifs to understated textures and border options, Axminster’s collections bring character to both period and modern homes. Their woven wool carpets not only stand the test of time but also age beautifully.
Many of their ranges are available in multiple widths and colourways, making it easier to find a tailored fit for your interior.
