Do you deliver kiln dried firewood throughout Devon?

Yes, Devon Logs supplies kiln dried hardwood firewood across Devon, from the coastal towns of North Devon to the South Hams, East Devon and the countryside around Dartmoor. Our delivery area includes Exeter, Plymouth, Barnstaple, Ilfracombe, Tiverton, Newton Abbot, Torquay, Totnes, Okehampton and many smaller villages and rural communities. Whether you live in a busy Devon town or a remote countryside property, we aim to make ordering quality firewood straightforward.

Can you deliver logs to remote farms and cottages on Dartmoor and Exmoor?

We can arrange firewood deliveries to many rural properties around Dartmoor and the Devon side of Exmoor, subject to suitable vehicle access. Devon's countryside has plenty of narrow lanes, steep driveways, cattle grids and isolated farm tracks, so please tell us about any access restrictions before ordering. Our distribution partner uses delivery vehicles that need sufficient space to approach and unload safely. If access is particularly challenging, contact us to discuss the most suitable delivery arrangements.

How should I store firewood in Devon's wet and windy climate?

Devon receives considerable rainfall, particularly across the higher ground of Dartmoor and Exmoor, so protecting your firewood from persistent wet weather is essential. Store kiln dried logs in a covered, well-ventilated log store with the wood raised off the ground. Open or slatted sides allow air to circulate, while a solid roof keeps off the rain. Avoid placing logs directly against damp stone walls or covering the entire stack with plastic, which can trap condensation. A little preparation will keep your logs ready to burn throughout the colder months.

Is kiln dried firewood suitable for homes near the Devon coast?

Kiln dried firewood is an excellent choice for homes along Devon's north and south coasts, including places such as Ilfracombe, Woolacombe, Sidmouth, Dartmouth and Salcombe. Coastal properties can experience high humidity, sea mist and wind-driven rain, all of which make careful firewood storage important. Keep your logs in a sheltered, ventilated location away from direct exposure to the weather. If your coastal cottage has limited outdoor storage space, smaller bags of logs may be easier to keep protected than a large outdoor stack.

Which hardwood logs are best for heating a Devon country cottage?

For traditional Devon cottages, farmhouses and rural homes heated by wood burning stoves, oak, birch and ash and beech are all popular hardwood options. Oak is particularly dense and can provide long-lasting heat, making it useful for extended evening fires. Birch lights readily and produces attractive flames, while ash and beech offer reliable all-round performance. Whatever species you choose, properly dried firewood is important for efficient burning, especially in older countryside properties where a stove may be used regularly throughout winter.

How much does it cost to have firewood delivered anywhere in Devon?

Our standard firewood delivery charge is £45 across Devon, whether you're ordering to Plymouth, Exeter, Barnstaple, Axminster or a rural village. Orders over £400 qualify for free standard delivery. Deliveries are handled by our distribution partner, Gregory Distribution, so suitable vehicle access is important. If your property is reached by a narrow Devon country lane, steep driveway or restricted entrance, please contact us before ordering so we can check the delivery arrangements.

When should I order firewood for winter in Devon?

We recommend stocking up before the colder autumn and winter weather arrives, particularly if you live in an exposed location on Dartmoor, Exmoor or in one of Devon's rural valleys. Higher-altitude properties can experience colder conditions and occasional icy roads, while heavy rain and winter storms can make countryside access more difficult. Ordering your kiln dried logs during the warmer months gives you time to organise suitable storage and prepare for the heating season. Because our firewood is kiln dried, you don't need to season it yourself before burning, provided it remains properly stored.
