Firewood delivery in Pearl Valley

Pearl Valley is laid out around a Jack Nicklaus Signature course, opened in 2003, between the Simonsberg and the Drakenstein mountains. In summer the light stays late, and after eighteen holes there’s still time to get a fire going on the stoep.

For coals that see a whole evening through, go for Kameeldoring: bone dry, exceptionally hot and very long-burning. Black Wattle is the economical choice for a smaller braai, with decent coals much like Rooikrans. See which braai wood suits your braai.

Ringed by the Simonsberg and the Drakenstein, the valley holds the cold on a winter night. Whether it’s an open fireplace or a closed-combustion stove, this is when you want a proper stack of firewood by the door.

Blue Gum is the one for most fireplaces and stoves: it burns hot and clean with minimal ash, so the glass and the grate stay easier to keep. If the stove has to hold heat until morning, Kameeldoring burns very long and very hot. Our fireplace and stove wood page explains which suits which.
