How to revamp textured laminate benchtops?

Question

Hi, 🙂

We've recently moved into an older home and are working our way through updating, we plan to paint the cupboard doors or re cover them but the kitchen benches are a ... bit of an eye sore and we have no idea where to start, I'm fairy certain they're laminate but they are textured which is making finding a solution rather tricky, we only plan to live in this home for another year or so, so not really wanting to spend lots of money, just wanting it a bit more easy on the eyes, PLEASE help us get rid of the blue !!
