Among the various benefits of their quirky accommodations, the views are definitely one of the best in Wales. All of their accommodation have access to open views of the landscape, which is especially great at night.

Top of the Woods & Certainly Wood

We stock Top of the Woods with Flaming Firewood, Flamers firelighters, and kiln dried kindling.

Flaming Firewood

Flaming Firewood logs are the perfect logs for outdoor cooking and campsites. The logs are smaller and of different shapes and sizes, therefore it is quicker to get a good bed of coals and easier to control the heat output.

Top of the Woods uses our Flaming Firewood for all their guests' BBQs and campfires, as even beginner firestarters will be able to light a fire in no time with these logs. They are kiln dried, meaning that most of the water is removed down to below an average of 20% moisture content. This means that you are sure to be provided with ultimate burn quality with maximum heat output.

Kindling & Flamers

Our kindling is used on their campsites, alongside our Flamers, to make sure all of their guests can easily start the perfect campfire. Like all of our logs, our kindling is also kiln dried (below 12% moisture content).

With the addition of one single flamer, you should have the perfect fire going in no time. Flamers, in particular, are perfect for campsite enthusiasts as they are light to carry, easy to store, natural, and will even light when wet.

Using both of these incredible products, outdoor cooking has never been easier.
