The South Lakes is an area where solid fuel heating is a part of daily life, especially through long, cold winters. The performance of your firewood has a direct impact on comfort, efficiency and energy use. Kiln dried logs burn hotter and more consistently than air dried alternatives, providing steady heat and reducing the build up of soot in stoves and flues. Every load we supply is ready to burn immediately, making it ideal for modern wood burners, open fires and outdoor log burners.
We deliver across towns, villages, rural lanes and lakeside properties within the South Lakes region. Our customers include local residents, guest houses, holiday cottages, restaurants, campsites and rural businesses.

We aim to make every part of the ordering process smooth and hassle free, from first enquiry through to delivery.
Lakes Kiln Dried Logs supplies hardwood logs that are ideal for achieving strong, consistent heat. Hardwood burns for longer and maintains an even flame, which is especially important for homes that rely on their stove as a primary heat source. We also provide kindling to make lighting your fire quick and easy. All logs are cut to a size that fits standard stoves, ensuring easy stacking and efficient storage.
Sustainability is central to the way we operate. Our logs are sourced from responsible forestry suppliers who follow careful woodland management practices. The kiln drying process removes excess moisture evenly across each log, resulting in a cleaner and more efficient burn. This helps reduce emissions, improve stove performance and create a more enjoyable heating experience for our customers.

Why are kiln dried logs environmentally friendly?
The key reason log burning is more environmentally friendly is due to the timescales it takes to create the fuel.
Trees take in carbon as they grow and release it to the atmosphere when they are burned, or die. Managed in a sustainable way, the trees that grow take up the carbon released when wood fuel is burnt. This is called a ‘closed carbon cycle’ and means there is no net increase in atmospheric CO2.
This is not true for fossil fuels as there is no replenishment of oil, gas or coal when these fuels are burnt. Plus it takes millions of years to produce fossil fuels.
Although wood burning is a ‘green’ choice, burning ‘green’ wood is not. When trees are freshly felled they are known as ‘green’. The moisture content of freshly felled green wood varies by species but can account for as much as 67% of the total weight of the wood. Generally softwoods have a higher green moisture content than hardwoods. Ash has only around 33% moisture content when felled – making one of the best species for seasoning as it dries relatively quickly.
The heat generated when wood is burned is directly linked to the moisture content of the woodfuel. The higher the moisture content the lower the usable energy, or calorific value. This is simply because more energy is used to displace the water in the wood, through evaporation, before the wood generates heat.
For example burning high quality wood at around 20% moisture content generates more than twice as much heat as burning ‘wet’ firewood with a 50% moisture content. Looking at it another way… you would need to burn twice as many logs to get the same amount of heat.
Dry wood also gives off less smoke and emissions, making it a cleaner, greener fuel.
