Founded in 2009 and based in the beautiful countryside of Devon, England, Salamander Stoves is a family-run business specialising in the manufacturing and design of our high quality flagship stove, the Hobbit.
With over 20 years of experience in dealing with a wide range of antique, modern and contemporary stoves, we have carefully brought this knowledge to bear in the design of our own cast iron multi-fuel stove. Our aim is to provide you with a high quality stove that will give you years of long, trouble-free service, and every stove is hand-finished, fettled and inspected at our Devon workshop.
At Salamander Stoves, we recognised the need for a cast iron stove with a smaller footprint, and the demand for a small stove which offered the same benefits as a large, efficient wood burner. Our Hobbit multi-fuel stove achieves this, presenting itself as a high quality, compact, yet affordable stove, whilst being traditionally and elegantly styled to fit with every style of decor and interior design.
Designing stoves for over 15 years…
Although the Hobbit was originally designed to fit small household fireplaces in order to avoid removing original Victorian and Edwardian tiles or cast fire surrounds, due to the continued growth of the small spaces movement over the last 15 years, our stove has found its home in a diverse array of incredible small spaces.
We are extremely proud to now have over 20,000 of our little stoves installed in small household fireplaces, cabins, horse boxes, shepherds’ huts, canal boats, camper vans and more, providing light and warmth to thousands of tiny homes and dwellings! Our Hobbit stove is now Eco Design approved, which makes it suitable for any installation that’s going to take place after the 1st of January 2022. You can visit our Eco Design page to read more about this release.
To make the installation process easier, we’ve also designed a wide range of flue kits which are specifically tailored to each of these different structures. These installation kits include everything you will need to fit your small stove, and most of our flue parts are manufactured by Midtherm.
After the success of our Hobbit multi-fuel stove, we developed our larger Little Range Cook Stove, which offers the same benefits as our classic Hobbit stove combined with a substantially increased cooking potential.
Please feel free to contact us to discuss your unique project and to find out how you could include a Hobbit stove or Little Range Cook Stove in the design of your house or tiny home! We also offer a bespoke flue consultancy service free of charge, so you are more than welcome to get in touch if you would like any advice regarding what flue parts you will require or how your flue system should be arranged.
