Review of Little Thurlow stove
Highly delighted and an excellent investment which will pay dividends
Town and Country were recommended to us by a friend who came across one of their stoves in a hotel near Whitby. She says it is the best she has ever seen. Obviously the Little Thurlow is smaller than the one at the hotel but it certainly performs just as well as the bigger brothers in the family.
We wanted a stove to help heat our bungalow as we have access to unlimited amounts of unwanted fallen timber on our friends large farm estate. Just as everyone says it is very easy to light and control. We have only tried to keep it in overnight once by shutting it down after completely filling it with a variety of logs, larger on the bottom and smaller on top. It did just stay in but the glass was pretty dirty which was only to be expected. It managed to relight when we put a few sticks on despite it being almost out. We will have to get some briquettes in and try with those to see if it will burn a bit longer and retain some more heat, which will be welcome when the weather turns a lot colder as it is forecast to do. The glass cleans up very easily, especially by using a damp cloth dipped in the old ash, which is something we learned when we stayed in a cottage fitted with a wood burner. To summarise it is a good looking stove, works well, has a good capacity, is extremely well made and our dogs love it! One last point to mention and it is something which surprised us, but we managed to buy our stove much, much cheaper from a stockist in Castleford rather than us driving across to Pickering to collect it.Stove expert replied: All round fair review for this model.
