I'd just go to a couple of irl shops. Carpetright and whatever else is near you. Get the most premium underlay, and consider underfloor insulation while you're at it.
And is self installing a stupid idea?
Zero experience, but having watched people fit them it doesn't look hard. Obvs I can imagine that like a lot of trades they make it look easy. But if pros can knock a bedroom out in 10mins or wherever, I struggle to believe you couldn't do it in a day with some throught and YouTube. You're not dealing with something like stairs or funny shaped halls - that at a guess is where more skill comes in.
However, when we did it about 5yrs ago install was free over a certain amount, and wasn't expensive even if you didn't make the weekend deal.
The faff of getting the bits, cost of buying any specialist stuff and lugging a carpet upstairs makes me question whether one bedroom is the place to save this money.

Where's good for bedroom carpets? Is there somewhere like Colour Flooring but for high pile stuff? And is self installing a stupid idea?
