Open Fire
An open fire transforms the feeling inside the tents, creating a wonderful atmosphere and a delightful focal point. Our fireplaces are timber framed with a sheet metal firebox that sits on top so that the base of the fire is at hip height.

The fireplace has to sit in the centre of the tent, so that smoke can escape directly up and out through the smoke hole and the flames do not get anywhere near the canvas. When used sensibly an open fire is quite safe, but you must be happy to accept the responsibility to use it safely.

We’ll supply less-smoke (not smokeless) “heatlogs” to burn, firelighters and matches too if you wish.

External Heater
Whilst an open fire will provide some local heat, it is not enough to heat a tent on its own. For this purpose we provide external diesel powered heaters that sit outside the tent and duct warm air in under the bottom edge of the canvas. They are highly effective and will keep the tents warm on the coldest of days. They can run for at least 12 hours continuously without refueling.
