Delivery times depend on our time of year but are typically 2-4 working days unless specified elsewhere, we also offer a next day delivery service. We will always give you a call or text to arrange a date and time as we want to make sure it is convenient for you.

Logs need to be dried before they are burnt; if they aren’t, the extra moisture must be dried off by the fire, wasting precious heat energy. Additionally, wet firewood releases harmful toxins that can build up in your appliance increasing the risk of a fire. These toxins also escape into the atmosphere and are detrimental to environmental and human health. Kiln-dried logs are far more efficient, burning hotter and longer while producing less smoke. Ours are guaranteed below 18% moisture and carry the Woodsure ‘Ready to Burn’ certification – ideal for homes with log burners or open fireplaces.

We are delighted to be certified by the Woodsure ‘Ready to Burn’ scheme. They are the only certification scheme in the UK that rigorously checks that wood fuel producers produce and supply wood fuel to the correct standard. Not only do their rigorous standards contribute to the reduction of air pollution, they also act to protect your appliance from unnecessary damage. To learn more about this worthwhile scheme, visit https://woodsure.co.uk/.

This depends on the size of your burner. Our standard size is 10 inch, but we offer a range of sizes from small to large in length, as well as chunky or skinny logs so you have five sizes to choose from. If unsure, check your stove manual or give our friendly team a call and we’ll help you choose the right size.

The vast majority of our wood comes from within the UK. Many of our logs are sourced from managed woodland across Gloucesterhire and other surrounding counties and dried on our local site. Your logs could have come from just a few miles outside of Bourton on the Water! By sourcing and drying our logs locally, we reduce unnecessary transport and support responsible forestry, helping to preserve the local countryside.

Yes, Bourton-on-the-Water is not currently in a smoke control zone, so you can use a log burner or open fire.

Fun Facts…. Bourton-on-the-Water’s Historic Connection to Wood and Fire

Wood: From Timber Churches to Stone Architecture

Early Timber Origins
The site where St Lawrence’s Church stands today originally hosted a wooden (timber) church around 708 AD, reflecting early Saxon use of wood in religious buildings. This was eventually replaced with a stone Norman church in 1110.

Transition from Wood to Stone
Historically, many buildings in Bourton were timber-framed with thatched or wooden-shingle roofs. However, by the late 16th century, stone began to dominate, partly due to dwindling timber supplies in the parish. By the early 17th century, stone roofs and walls had become standard, with extensive local quarrying underpinning this architectural shift.

Archaeological Evidence
Excavations suggest that medieval homes often had timber roofs fixed with wooden pegs and covered in thatch or wooden shingles. Scorch marks on floors hint at internal fires, despite only one formal hearth being identified.

Fire: Hearths, Mills & Historical Safety Practices

Signs of Internal Fires
The archaeological finds, such as scorch marks in medieval homes, suggest fires were common inside dwellings, perhaps due to cooking or heating practices within primarily wooden structures.

Mill Power & Potential Fire Risk
By the 12th century, the River Windrush had been channelled through the village to power three mills. While vital for local industry, mills often posed fire risks, especially where grain dust or wooden milling equipment was involved.
