Description
Tall and slim, the Dovre Bold 300 is a cast iron wood fireplace for rooms where floor space is tight but winters still bite. Its upright shape puts the fire at a good height, and the 7kW output is a comfortable match for an average Cape Town lounge. Searchers often look for it as the bold 300, and it remains one of the most asked about stoves in the Dovre range.
Dovre Bold 300 Fireplace Features
Cast iron that holds heat
Cast iron warms steadily and keeps releasing heat long after the last log has burnt down. That gives you a calm, even warmth instead of hot and cold swings, and it means less wood over a cold evening. For daily winter use, a cast iron wood fireplace is hard to beat.
Upright design
At 42 x 49 x 101 cm, the Bold 300 is narrow and tall. It fits into a corner, beside a TV unit or in a smaller lounge without crowding the room, and the raised firebox is easy to load without bending down.
Solid and simple
The unit weighs 130 kg, burns wood and connects to a 150 mm flue. Simple controls make it easy to light and easy to keep going, even for first time stove owners.
Is the Bold 300 right for your home?
We do not have a maker heating figure for this model, so here is a rough guide: a 7kW fireplace usually heats a small to medium lounge of around 40 to 70 m2 with a normal ceiling. If your room is larger or has lots of glass, a bigger unit may be better. Compare other freestanding fireplaces or the wider fireplaces range.
Installation in Cape Town

Dovre Bold 300 FAQs
How much space does the Dovre Bold 300 need?
The body is 42 x 49 cm at the base and 101 cm tall. You also need safe clearances to walls and furniture and a non-combustible hearth plate, which we measure and plan during the site visit.
Is a 7kW fireplace enough for my lounge?
As a rough guide, 7kW suits a small to medium lounge of about 40 to 70 m2. Open plan spaces, high ceilings and older homes with draughts need more. Send us your room size and we will confirm.
