British Fires New Forest 1200 – Built-In Electric Fireplace with Striking Wide Design

The New Forest 1200 built-in electric fireplace is designed to make a statement. With its 120 cm width and award-winning flame technology, it becomes the centrepiece of any room. Modern design, advanced controls, and flexible installation options make the 1200 one of the most versatile models in the New Forest range.

Flexible Installation Options

Like all New Forest fireplaces, the 1200 offers unique adaptability. It can be fitted as a front-facing fire, a corner fireplace (right or left), or a three-sided fire. This means you can tailor the installation to your interior design, whether you want a discreet built-in look or a panoramic flame view.

Choose Your Perfect Style: Signature, Deluxe or Black Edition

The New Forest 1200 is available in three editions, each crafted to provide a different aesthetic and flame experience:

  • Signature – Includes a rear mirrored glass panel for enhanced depth. Supplied with Signature Logs, bark, husk, slate, and diamond crystals, it allows you to customise your fuel bed with three layout styles: Forest View, Slate View, and Diamond Light.
  • Deluxe – Retains the mirrored glass but upgrades the fuel bed to Deluxe Real Logs, made from authentic British oak. The Deluxe edition combines natural realism with impressive flame visuals, creating an incredibly lifelike fireplace experience.
  • Black Edition – The premium model, pairing Deluxe Real Logs with a dark rear glass panel. This reduces reflections and sharpens the flame contrast, giving you the clearest, most immersive fire view in the New Forest collection.

Deluxe Real Logs – Authentic Natural Detail

The Deluxe Real Logs are hand-crafted from sustainably sourced British oak, chosen for their unique grain, knots, and bark. They provide the true character of a wood-burning fire, while the award-winning flame technology enhances their natural textures. The result is a fireplace that feels close to nature, with all the convenience of electric heating.

  • Absolutely fantastic service from Bioethanol Fireplace.co.uk. From our first online enquiry this company have been extremely helpful and informative. Casper answered all of the questions that we had and also sent us a video comparing the two fires that we were interested in as we were not able to visit the showroom. Delivery was very quick and we absolutely love our fire. It has made a lovely addition to our conservatory making it much more useable during the colder winter months. Would definitely recommend this company - 5 massive stars from us!

  • I recently purchased a bioethanol fire and I’m extremely pleased with it. It looks great, works beautifully, and has an impressively long burning time. It’s easy to use and adds a lovely atmosphere to the room. I would definitely recommend it to anyone considering a clean, stylish heating option! The fire was packed extremely well for transport, and my husband put it together with ease.

  • I was pleased to have find this company as its products are superior to what is on sale in all the other vendors i researched. I am very happy with my purchase a Victoria cast iron electric stove it looks great in my kitchen - and it warms up my kitchen really quickly. The stove was expensive but worth the investment as i think this stove will be with me for a long time.

  • I purchased a Bioethanol Fireplace from Bio Fireplace Group and I couldn’t be happier. The service couldn’t have been better from start to finish. The fire arrived quicker than expected, the customer service is second to none and well the fire itself is stunning. I can’t wait to purchase another fire for my orangey.

  • Order arrived quickly and in perfect condition due to the care taken in wrapping and packaging. The Columbus fireplace is excellent. It is surprisingly good at warming the room and I've particularly enjoyed lighting in first thing to cheer up a grey start to the day.
