Look locally for places. Some places will deliver in bulk. Just make sure you have somewhere to store it to keep it dry as it will be seasoned and dried. Or you may be able to collect. We have a local place that we just collect from. There's no such thing as cheap wood now, gas prices have increased demand so wood has gone up too.

If you have a dual fuel burner using a little coal can help to keep the fire and heat going longer.

Buy in bulk from a local tree surgeon, get a mixed of hard and soft wood. Make sure it's been seasoned it doesn't need to be kiln dried just dried to a certain moisture level.

I pick up windfall logs, but know where I am £250 from a local farmer will get you enough logs for a winter. Just put a post on a local community Facebook group and sure people will suggest some local suppliers.
