When the winter chill sets in there’s nothing better than cozying up in front of a fire. Gas or wood-burning, whatever your preference, there is something comforting beyond just the warmth - watching the flames can be calming and almost hypnotic, better than any movie. That’s why the hearth is often considered the heart of the home, a place to gather, relax and unwind. A fireplace in the bedroom? The ultimate luxury!
