We've got a hole in the wall fireplace in our new house.I'd love to make it feel more cosy in there and also warm the room up a little in the evening without over-heating the house.
It's a fairly small living room so I think a wood burner would be overkill and obviously expensive to install. Don't think I want to open up the fireplace either.
We're thinking about gel fires - maybe something
