A wood burning stove can set off a room beautifully. The pile of logs next to it, the warm glow emanating from behind the glass door, the heat radiating out to the room and the cosiness of curling up in front of a fire. There really is nothing like it and there is a certain romance attached to the idea of building your own fire and roasting yourself by it.

In an age where we rely on central heating and gas fires, a place to stay with a log burner is an attractive option. It gives you something different. The experience of drinking a morning cup of tea next to a flaming fire can brighten even the greyest of days. And then there is the safety aspect too. No concerns about a stray ember falling from the fire after you’ve gone to bed, or being smoked out of the room by a poor drawing chimney, they are simple to maintain and use. Some newspaper, fire lighters and logs will quickly create a comforting blaze which provides heat even after the burner has gone out.

We have some wonderful properties that can keep you warm whilst you enjoy a winter break. All our properties with open fires or wood burners come with a supply of logs to get you started and we’ll show you how to get the burner working. A perfect way to get you ready for your time away.
