The Super Efficient Anevay Stove!

April 2015

Summer is so close we can almost taste it! 

One of the great things about living in Cornwall is that we can live our lives like we are on holiday-everyday!  Stunning coastline and landscapes surrounds us; there is literally always a new adventure on our doorsteps.

Unfortunately it is easy to get bogged down in the everyday.

Eat, sleep, work, repeat. 

Let’s break that cycle!

One really easy way to do this is to eat dinner Al Fresco! On your way home pick an exciting little spot to spend a few hours whilst you cook your dinner. One of my personal favourites is the secluded spot Trevellas Beach near St Agnes.

Now we all know BBQs aren't always the most portable of items. They also take a long time to heat up and then a long time to cool down when you want to leave, which can be frustrating if you don’t have much time to spare.

We recommend you take a Horizonstove with you.  The Horizon stove comes from another Cornish Company called Anevay. These little guys are great- lightweight, portable and they promote sustainability.

Horizon Stove

You can cook on them using only a handful of wood. You can take your Horizon Stove to the beach after work and cook on it using only the driftwood and twigs you find there. How amazing is that?

They come in a bag made from recycled inner tubes and are ready to cook on moments after lighting.  Perfect if you don’t have much time to spare. Oh and did we mention that they are smoke free? No more will you get a surprise face full of smoke when the wind suddenly changes!

So what are you waiting for? Don’t waste these lovely summer evenings. Get yourself a Horizon stove and get down to the beach!

Get involved and share some pictures of you enjoying your evenings in your favourite Cornish spot. 

We would love to hear from you.
