If that's possible (and skirting can be a pig to remove and refit,
especially in older houses!), then that would be best- if you can, put the
cable in and run a piece of plastic conduit with a string in it (but no
cables!) for later additions.

As Stuart said, and I forgot, don't compromise any damproofing (DPMs/DPCs)
if you are going for burial in a solid floor.

idea of the

1mm T&E is quite small, and available in white... and you can even get
figure-8 bell wire without a stripe (it usually has a ridge on one wire
instead for polarity)

I'm assuming in all this that it's a solid wood floor with no carpet, if
not, there's an obvious cable route (under the carpet!)
