About This Stove
The Hobbit SE Stove is the DEFRA exempt version of the popular Hobbit Stove, designed for customers who need a small wood burning stove suitable for UK Smoke Control Areas. It keeps the same compact cast iron design as the standard Hobbit while adding smoke exempt approval, making it a strong option for urban homes, smaller fireplaces, shepherd huts, canal boats, cabins and garden rooms where clean, efficient heating is required.
The Hobbit Stove is a compact 4.1kW cast iron wood burning and multi-fuel stove, built for smaller spaces where a full-size stove would be too large. It's one of the UK's most sought-after compact wood burning and multi-fuel stoves, designed for customers who need dependable heat in smaller spaces. Despite its compact size, the Hobbit delivers the look and warmth of a traditional stove while offering modern efficiency and clean-burning performance.. Its compact footprint makes it a popular choice where larger appliances simply won't fit, while its impressive efficiency helps maximise heat output from every fuel load.

Further Details
The Hobbit SE is the best choice where the installation falls inside a Smoke Control Area or where the customer wants the added reassurance of a DEFRA exempt compact stove. It is visually very similar to the standard Hobbit but includes the required air control arrangement for smoke exemption. This makes it a useful upgrade for city homes, listed-style fireplaces, small cottages and compact living spaces.
