Ironing mats?

I don't have a lot that requires ironing anymore so i was wondering wether ironing mats do actually protect the surface of whatever you are ironing on? Then I could get rid of the ironing board which at present resides upstairs as there is nowhere to keep it downstairs and I'd like to get rid.
So who has one and would my fairly new table be safe?

I have a table top ironing board no mat. I just use a towel on the worktop on holiday.
