The Hobbit SE
£765.00 (standard price)
The Hobbit SE is a small cast iron multi-fuel stove that is able to burn wood, coal or eco logs, and it’s specifically designed for installations where the space for a stove might be more limited. This makes our stove the ideal choice for small fireplaces where larger stoves simply won’t fit.
The Hobbit SE is a DEFRA exempt appliance, it’s Eco Design approved for 2022, and it has passed the HETAS Cleaner Choice Scheme. You will need to purchase the SE model if you live in a Smoke Control Area.
The Hobbit SE is a 4.1kW stove and it comes with a 5 year warranty when you register your stove with us. The lead time for any new orders for a Hobbit SE is currently 10-12 weeks. The Hobbit and the Hobbit SE are finished in a flat black colour as standard.

The Hobbit SE is a small cast iron multi-fuel stove that is able to burn wood, coal, or eco logs, and it fully complies with the new Eco Design 2022 regulations, which makes it suitable for any installations after the 1st January 2022. Our Hobbit SE is specifically designed for installations where the space for a stove might be more limited, and this makes our stove the ideal choice for small fireplaces where larger stoves simply won’t fit.
The Hobbit stove is available either as a standard version or the SE, DEFRA exempt model. You will need to purchase the SE if you live in a smoke control area. This is an area where you cannot emit smoke from a chimney unless you are burning smokeless fuels and wood or if you are using an exempt appliance, such as the Hobbit SE. If you’re unsure as to whether you live in a smoke control area or not, then it’s worth contacting your local council to find out more.
The compact size of the Hobbit SE also allows for any ornate period features of an older cast iron fire surround to be retained, enabling an inefficient open fire to be replaced with ease. Our small stove continues to provide the unmistakable warmth and glow of a crackling fire, which sits at the heart of every home. This can be viewed through the Hobbit SE’s clear glass pane thanks to our Airwash and clean burning technology.
The Hobbit SE’s excellent performance combined with its traditional, yet elegant styling, and its superb value for money, has led to our little stove finding its home in countless amazing small spaces and tiny homes. Our small stoves have provided light and warmth to canal boats, treehouses, yurts, bell tents, glamping pods, campervan conversions, horse boxes, shepherds’ huts, garden rooms, summer houses, luxury cabins and retreats, workshops, caravans, vardo wagons and more! We’ve also designed a range of different flue kits which make it easy to install our small stoves in almost any of these spaces, and almost all of our high quality flue parts are manufactured by Midtherm.
The Hobbit SE comes in a matte black colour as standard. However, our stove is sure to compliment any style of decor or interior design, as we offer a broad range of additional stove options as well as the unique ability to customise your stove with your own choice of colours.
