Hi Thursdays Child - yes, thanks very much, that was the one - or very similar anyway. I googled Moroccan Matting after seeing your post (would never have thought to look for Moroccan matting before that - I'd tried everything else!!!!!). I found the website, and it looks just what we are looking for. I think we will order some, but I would like to see it - and feel it, if you know what I mean! On the website the ends look rather unfinished, where the one we saw had proper binding all round, but I supposed they may have done that themselves. It beats plain old awning carpet, though, any day.
We have a sunshade in France, rather than a proper awning, so the 'carpet' is on show all the time, and at the moment we've been using a very large old woollen mat - which holds the dust at bay, but doesn't look nice! This will be a 1,000 per cent improvement!

Hi Val and TC. The morrocan matting we bought at the nec looked similar to the website in pattern but it was sold in 2.5m wide pieces in 3 different lengths. I can't remember the name of the stall but it was in the accessories hall. TBH, we had both had a drink from the CAMRA stall, (honestly just one) of ridiculously strong real ale so the afternoon is a bit hazy!

. Its too dark just now but I will look at it tomorrow as it is still in the bag to see if there is a label.

Thanks Mel - I'm going to contact the company and ask for a small sample to see how it feels - and if it's OK I'd be quite happy to order from the internet as we've no plans to go to any more caravan shows this year!

sorry Val, there isn't a label or anything on the bag.

OH doesn't think he has the receipt either but if I find it I will let you know.
