Is it right for you?
Who the British Fires Holbury Electric Suite suits best
The Holbury is the inset suite: rather than floating on the wall, it builds the New Forest fire into a marble-effect surround that meets the wall like traditional fireplace furniture. It suits rooms that want the classic fireplace composition, surround, opening, fire, in a modern electric package, with three widths to match the wall.
From the survey
Installation notes for the British Fires Holbury Electric Suite
The inset format means part of the depth sits into the wall or a built-out section, which we construct and make good as part of the job. Widths run from 1050mm to 1840mm with two heights, so the proportions can be matched to a chimney breast or a flat wall build-out. White or grey marbling, chosen from samples.
An honest steer
How it compares with similar models
Against the wall-hung Brockenhurst and Winchester, the Holbury reads more traditional and more built-in, less floating sculpture, more established fireplace. All three share the New Forest flame picture, so the frame is the whole decision. It also starts at the widest price spread, so the survey quote settles the practical question.
Fitting it locally
Fitting the British Fires Holbury Electric Suite in Yorkshire homes
The inset composition suits the corridor homes that had a fireplace once and lost it: we rebuild the focal point on the old chimney breast with the Holbury, and the room gets its centre back without a flue in sight.

Common questions
British Fires Holbury Electric Suite FAQs
What makes the Holbury different from the other suites?
It is the inset design: the fire and surround sit into the wall like a traditional fireplace, where the Brockenhurst and Winchester hang on it. Same New Forest fire inside, different presence in the room.
Can the Holbury go on a wall with no chimney breast?
Yes, we build a shallow framed section for the inset depth and finish it flush, so the suite reads as original to the room. On an existing breast the build is simpler still.
What sizes does the Holbury come in?
Three widths from 1050mm to 1840mm and two heights, which lets us match the suite to the wall and ceiling proportions properly on the survey.
Do the suites use the same fire as the New Forest insets?
Yes, the fire opening is built to your selected New Forest size, with the same LED flame system, log bed options and 1.5kW heater as the standalone fires.
