Heating Your Home with Oil?

The UK Government is consulting on the future of clean heating, including renewable options for oil-heated homes. It’s important that people in rural areas have a say in how they want to heat their homes in the future.

Submit your thoughts to the government by 10th February to make sure they consider oil heating users and take your views into account. ✅

On Friday, we said goodbye to John, who has been with us for just under 49 years!

He has entered the next chapter in his life and a well-deserved retirement. We hope his days are filled with peace, relaxation and new memories.

From everyone at Tincknells, a massive thank you to John for his dedication over the past 49 years. You will be truly missed. 💙

Do you own an oil-heated home? ✅

There’s a government consultation about how homes that use oil heating could be treated in future energy plans. The current focus includes options like heat pumps, which can be expensive and disruptive for older rural homes.

Industry groups like UKIFDA are encouraging renewable fuels like HVO to be included as a practical, low‑disruption way to reduce emissions without replacing your boiler.

You can read more and share your views before 10 Feb 2026, it only takes a few minutes and helps make sure rural households are listened to: https://futurereadyfuel.info/consultation/

You may see our poor flag sitting a little lower than usual today. 🇬🇧

Please do not fear, we are not in distress! As our flag was being hoisted up, the weather had other plans and tangled it up on the line.

Please bear with us while our team (and the flag) fight to get it back to normal! 😂

Our calendars have now all been sent out, and we have been enjoying hearing all of your feedback on the photos and theme for this year.

We will be posting a photo each month to show a little bit of our history around Wells. Pictured below for January is a photo taken around 1940, which shows Robert Tincknell Senior shoeing a horse in Stoberry Park. 📸

At our Wells and Congresbury Country Store, open 7 days a week, we stock 20‑litre emergency home heating oil cans.

We know how worrying it can be to run low on oil, especially in the current weather. These cans give you peace of mind and ensure your home stays warm and you are never caught short. 🏠
