Longleat Forestry

Not sure if the increased demand this winter has lead them to rushing the drying process but my batch of kiln dried logs are presumably quite high in water content as they struggle to burn and audibly sizzle. Sent an email prior to writing this review and waited a week with no reply. Really disappointing and this will be my one-and-only visit

Not always reliable at times of peak demand in winter. Have spoken to them about it. Got a long response about DEFRA Regulations and Business models. However the problem is that in winter 2021/22 and 2022/23 Longleat failed to meet demand and periodically closed at short notice. Not great respect for customers in a fuel/ energy crisis in the midst of winter. Failing to meet demand does call their business model into question.

Arrived 2.30 on Thursday 20th october having called earlier to check they had stock but was shut. No notice online or on their answerphone message or by the telephone operator. Waste of time and car fuel.

Such a gorgeous and well kept forest, my friends and I have enjoyed many walks and hikes through the second largest Sequoia tree forest in the world. The staff is exceptionally helpful and always kind and courteous. The safari park is second to none and longeat house and park is a must see! We also buy our kiln dried hardwood for out heat and it is great quality wood.
