Mendip Christon 550 Freestanding Wood Stove

The Mendip Christon 550 is a beautifully crafted freestanding wood-burning stove that brings both warmth and character to any living space. Its contemporary, minimalist silhouette suits modern interiors perfectly, while the large glass viewing window frames a mesmerising display of flickering flames — making it as much a focal point as it is a heat source.

Delivering a heat output of up to 5.5 kW, the Christon 550 is well suited to small and medium-sized rooms, providing a comfortable and consistent warmth throughout the colder months. An impressive efficiency rating of 79% means more of every log is converted into usable heat, helping to keep your energy costs down over time. The stove accepts wood logs up to 250 mm in length, supporting longer burn times and reducing how often you need to refuel.

Practicality is built in at every turn. The advanced air wash system keeps the glass clean and clear with minimal effort, while the integrated ash pan makes routine maintenance quick and straightforward. Built from premium cast iron using bespoke Mendip mouldings, the Christon 550 is designed to perform reliably for many years.

All Mendip stoves are independently tested to stringent European standards covering heating efficiency, safety, and emissions — exceeding British requirements across the board. Founded in 2008, Mendip has established a strong reputation for producing high-quality, affordable stoves engineered specifically for the UK market.

Every Mendip stove sold includes a £10 donation to the Woodland Trust, helping to plant native trees and protect ancient woodland across the UK — so your purchase does good well beyond your own four walls.
