Collection: Fire Pits(15)

A bioethanol fire pit burns clean liquid fuel with no smoke, no ash, and no chimney required — ideal for terraces, pergolas, and enclosed outdoor spaces. A wood-burning fire pit produces the traditional crackle and smell but generates smoke and ash. Both give genuine flame; the choice depends on where you're using it and how much maintenance you want.

Bioethanol fire pits can be used under covered structures provided there's adequate ventilation — they produce no smoke and minimal combustion byproduct. Wood-burning fire pits should not be used directly under a pergola roof. Always check the manufacturer's clearance requirements before positioning any fire pit near overhead structures.

Entry-level bioethanol fire pits start from around £2,800. Mid-range designer models with larger burn chambers sit between £6,000–£14,000. Statement pieces and fire pit and seating combinations from premium brands can reach £20,000+. The price reflects materials, flame output, and design quality rather than just size.

Bioethanol — a clean-burning liquid fuel derived from plant material. It produces a real, visible flame with no smoke, no soot, and no smell beyond a faint warmth. It's sold in canisters and poured directly into the burner. Running costs vary by burner size and burn rate.

Some models are designed specifically for dual use. Fire pit and BBQ grill combinations — like the GlammFire Zarzuela or Stravaganza — incorporate a cooking grate over the flame. Standard decorative fire pits aren't designed for cooking and shouldn't be used as one, as it damages the burner and voids warranties.
