From wipe-clean to cotton, browse our favourite festive styles

Set the scene this December with a Christmas tablecloth. From PVC wipe-clean styles to sustainable cotton tablecloths, they are the perfect way to jazz up your festive dining table — and impress guests on Christmas Day.

Not sure which one to choose? A crisp white tablecloth is timeless and can be used throughout the year, however it can be harder to conceal stains. Other Christmas tablecloths include classic tartan (they'll never go out of style), forest green, and printed designs adorned with cheerful prints (ideal for households with small children). Layering your Christmas table starts with the tablecloth, but can also be complemented with matching placemats, coasters, crackers, name tags, and sprigs of fresh foliage to bring the outdoors in.
