100% Recycled Wool Waterproof Picnic Rug – Sustainable Outdoor Living
Product Description
Practical, sustainable and completely unique, our 100% Recycled Wool Waterproof Picnic Rugs are designed for adventurous souls who appreciate comfort, craftsmanship and thoughtful living. Building on the popularity of our much-loved recycled wool blankets, these beautifully rugged picnic rugs bring eco-conscious outdoor style to every occasion.
Lovingly made in the UK from 100% recycled wool, each rug is created through an innovative re-spinning process that gives discarded wool fibres a second life. The result is a wonderfully characterful picnic blanket where no two are ever the same. Rich in texture and individuality, every rug features its own unique blend of colours and pattern variations, making your blanket truly one of a kind.
Backed with a carefully selected waterproof backing and finished with practical coordinating webbing straps, these rugs are made for real outdoor living. Whether spread across damp grass during countryside picnics, wrapped around shoulders at festivals, kept in the boot for spontaneous adventures, or packed for coastal walks and camping trips, they offer warmth, practicality and durability in equal measure.
Naturally insulating, breathable and hardwearing, recycled wool is ideal for outdoor use and perfectly suited to modern sustainable lifestyles. Affordable, versatile and endlessly useful, this is the picnic rug you’ll find yourself reaching for again and again.
And if you enjoy a little surprise, even better as every rug is delightfully random in colour, adding to the charm and individuality of this eco-friendly collection.
Styling Tip / Pairs Well With
Perfect for pairing with wicker hampers, enamel mugs, hiking boots and relaxed countryside living. Keep one permanently in the car for impromptu outdoor moments or style indoors as a rustic floor rug beside a fire or reading chair. For a smaller walker and hiker version try the Random Recycled Wool Waterproof Backed Walker’s Companion.

FAQs
Where are the blankets made?
We are proud to say that all of our blankets are 100% British, being woven in traditional textile mills in all four home nations.
Every piece is crafted using time-honoured techniques by skilled makers and thoughtfully designed to blend beauty, heritage, and everyday comfort.
Can I order a blanket as a gift to be sent to the recipient direct?
Absolutely, we can send your chosen blanket directly to the recipient — simply enter their name, address and your gift message at checkout.
To make it extra special, you can add our luxury gift wrap option: your blanket will arrive in a white gift box, wrapped in tissue and ribbon, with a handwritten card — perfect for birthdays, weddings, or just-because moments.
Are the blankets sustainably made?
Yes — sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. All of our blankets are crafted in the UK using 100% natural wool, a renewable, biodegradable fibre. Most of our collection is made from mono-material yarns, which simplifies recycling and supports a circular approach to home textiles.
We’re also proud to offer a Recycled Wool Collection, made by re-weaving surplus and leftover yarns that would otherwise go to landfill. These blankets are not only eco-conscious, but full of character — each one is unique.
We work exclusively with mills that prioritise ethical sourcing and animal welfare, ensuring our blankets are as kind to the planet as they are to people.
Are they made from natural materials?
They are indeed — all of our blankets are made from wool, a natural and renewable material. Unlike synthetic fibres, wool is fully biodegradable and won’t release plastic microfibres into the environment.
We choose mono-material yarns wherever possible, meaning our blankets contain just one fibre type. This makes them not only gentler on the planet, but also easier to recycle at the end of their life.
Do you delivery internationally?
Yes, we’re delighted to welcome international customers — it means so much to us that our blankets are loved around the world.
International shipping rates are calculated at checkout based on destination and weight. Wherever possible, we use your country’s trusted national postal service to ensure safe and reliable delivery.
We always aim to keep shipping costs fair and transparent, if you have any questions before ordering, we’re just a message away. Whether it’s a gift for a loved one or a treat for yourself, we’ll make sure your blanket arrives beautifully wrapped and ready to enjoy — no matter where you are.
We offer luxury gifting
