Location South London Woods provides an accessible yet secluded woodland environment ideal for learning firelighting techniques. The mix of open spaces and dense coppice allows for practice with different fire lays while remaining safe and controlled.

Private courses can also be booked at the South Wales woodland in the Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons) National Park.
