What is a good alternative to wooden floorboards?

I have what used to be lovely original wooden floorboards all through the ground floor of my house.

But in the dining room, they are minging. I got them re-sanded five years ago and after 5 years of the kids dropping food on them, all the varnish is coming off, they are filthy and I can never clean them properly even when I polish them.

So what should I do? You can only sand them so often before they get too thin apparantly so I was thinking of putting some of that modern lino type flooring over them so that when the kids are older we can take it off and re-do them. But would that be terribly naff? Can anyone recommend anything that will actually look nice?
