Asbestos free Artex has been around since the 1970s, outlawed in the UK 1999.
If it was me, I'd get it tested first so that you know what you are dealing with.
Covering up won't rid you of the problem by either skimming or overboarding.
Plus a house that is asbestos free has more value and less residual risk, same applies to existing paint with lead content. Either choose to deal with it, or make it someone else's problem once you has sold the property.

a) child labour
b) exposure to potentially deadly material
