Fire up the BBQ June is on the horizon and the countdown to the longest day begins. Now the weather is warming up, it’s time to fire up the bbq. From charcoal to chairs, we’ve got everything you need to get that summer party started. Charcoal. Make it sustainable Our charcoal is locally sourced from Ben, a woodsman at Eggardon, West Dorset. Each bag is a blend of oak, ash, hazel, beech, maple and thorn that heats up quickly and lights easily. A match, some newspaper and you’re ready to cook. Pull up a chair Whether it’s watching the sunset or chilling over the weekend, a comfy (and stylish) outdoor chair is your summertime best buddy.
