Is it right for you?
Who the The Caistor Oak Fireplace Surround suits best
The Caistor is particularly well suited to rooms that need a more traditional timber fireplace, where Georgian-inspired moulding, fluted legs and carved capitals can sit comfortably with period joinery or classic furniture.
It works well around woodburning, multi-fuel or electric stove installations, especially when paired with a granite or stone hearth and a brick, stone or porcelain-lined chamber.
