About our firewood

Hard wood fire wood

Hardwoods burn longer than soft woods and work better for overnight heating. They will usually have coals left over in the morning so you can quickly restart your fire.

Hardwood fire wood is pre-split 100% hard wood, fully seasoned and ready to burn in handy (m3) bulk bags.

Soft wood fire wood

Hot burning, an ideal accompaniment to slower burning hardwood logs. Perfect for getting a fire hot quickly on cold winter evenings. Best in a wood burner and not recommended for open fires.

Kiln-dried hard wood

Our wood-fired boiler produces forced hot air which we use to dry our already-seasoned hard wood logs. This reduces moisture content even further for improved combustion.

Kiln-dried fire wood is the highest quality firewood available. It is easy to light and burns hotter and cleaner than other firewood.

Burning fire wood in Edinburgh

Edinburgh is a Smoke Control Area but appropriate fuels can be burned provided certain conditions are met.

From the Edinburgh Council Website “Some solid fuel stoves, ovens and boilers have been approved for use in smoke control areas. These appliances are exempt from the provisions of the Clean Air Act 1993 if they are installed and used properly.”

One of the most important things to consider when burning wood is its moisture content. Wood with a high moisture content burns poorly and produces a lot of smoke. All of our wood is seasoned in our heated barn for two years to reduce the moisture content well below required levels.
