**Cowhide Rug Size Guide**
One of the most common questions we receive is, "What size cowhide rug do I need?"
Cowhides come in a variety of sizes, and choosing the right size can make a big difference to the look of your room.
For larger rooms and open-plan living areas, our **Extra Large Deluxe Cowhides** are an excellent choice. These premium hides are approximately **2.4m long x 1.8m wide** and create a stunning focal point. As these larger hides are not always available, we generally stock cowhides measuring around **2.0m x 1.8m**, which comfortably suit most Australian lounge rooms.
There is no right or wrong way to position a cowhide rug. Some people tuck part of the hide under a sofa or coffee table to anchor the furniture setting, while others simply place it in front of the sofa as a feature piece. The best option depends on the size and shape of your room.
For smaller rooms, apartments, studies, or bedrooms, our **Small Cowhide Rugs** are an ideal solution. These hides are approximately **1.6m x 1.8m** and add warmth and character without overwhelming the space.
Not sure what size you need?
A simple trick is to use newspaper, cardboard, or masking tape to mark out the size of the rug on your floor before purchasing. Place it where you intend to position the cowhide and you'll quickly see whether the size works in your room.
