Cork floor in a bathroom - nice or naff ?

[didireallysaythat]

Don't want tiles, won't have carpet, won't have ufh, meh about vinyl. So what about cork ?

[milkysmum]

Im thinking no but link a decent picture to see if you can convince me?

Ooh Cork... Yes a link please.

I'm in the market for a bathroom floor and don't want cold tiles. I hadn't thought of cork. Old school.

As long as you don't get the nasty orange glue down tiles!

You can get lovely cork floors now. We have Wicanders in all our upstairs rooms. I love it! it's a soft hard floor if you get what I mean! There are lots of other companies doing it now as well.

mother I'm allergic to orange so that won't be happening. I'm thinking the regular cork floor light brown to give the room a bit of warmth (everything else will probably be white as I've not imagination). If I'm feeling brave maybe a red bath mat.

I can't find good pictures online. I've got samples from the cork floor company - lot of choice including some that don't look like cork to me... I'm on a mission to find pictures now !

We have Karndean flooring which is lovely - soft, warm, really hard wearing, waterproof, but is expensive.

Cork doesn't seem top expensive. I like the idea of karndean but the price plus fitting price puts me off. I'm thinking cork should be OK for us to fit ourselves and if we hate it after a year or two it's not too much of a financial outlay...
