More often than not, the open fire will be contained within a wood burner but it is possible to open the doors wide to watch the fire dance.
An open fire can help the festive spirit along at Christmas
Christmas is one time when lighting a fire seems the seasonal thing to do. We all appreciate cosy rooms in the depths of winter but do remember that the ashes need emptying in the morning. People have time to deal with the extra work an open fire demands when they are on holiday and often there is one enthusiast in a group of people who is happy to take responsibility.
The Cornish holiday cottages shown on this particular list all have an open fire of some kind. A starter pack of logs is usually provided but more can be purchased from the property owner or at petrol stations.
