Exercise mat for pilates recommendations

There is a new pilates class starting which I'd like to go to but you have to bring your own mat.

So far, I've been using a camping mat for strength and conditioning sessions, but I'd like to get a proper pilates mat ideally with a carry strap or bag.

I know that Argos does one, and I have seen some in Lidl too, but not sure about the quality or thickness I need.

Can anyone recommend please?

TIA

My extra thick argos one is going strong with 3.5 years use. Its definately worth having a thick one.

Its the pink opti one £22. Though the price is a shock - it was under a tenner when I bought it

Thicker the better. Mine is from decathlon after a yoga mat was just too thin. Has been chewed by the dog but still just fine otherwise. Bought pre DS so over 6 years ago

Thank you both. I actually managed to find a decent sized one in start Fitness in town for £14.95.

Although it already has carry straps, I also bought a mat bag from Amazon which is roomy enough to accommodate it.
