If you have a free or very cheap source of firewood, go for a slow combustion fire.
If you have 2 pay for wood, I would look at connecting up to N .Gas if possible.

Hey all. Just signed a rental lease for a place with slow combustion. Been stationed in Adelaide and literally had 2 days to get to Mount Gambier and find a home to live in when we start work there in June.
Anyway... what prices am I looking at if i have to by firewood? What quantities would i need? I want to have a load waiting ready when we get there. After that I can shop around and possible even look for my own wood.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
not sure on pricing in SA, but here in Sydney its around the the $300 mark for 2.2 cubic meters of Ironbark.
Price varies depending on quality of firewood also
2.2cu is probably a good start and i would go for a 50/50 mix of hard and soft.
Can check out these websites local 2 me in Sydney, it should give you an idea of prices, sorry haven't found any websites for SA but if i do i'll post them up for you
www.federationfirewood.com.au
www.bettaburnfirewood.com.au
just found an SA website but no pricing

Try your best to get your own wood to burn during the day too and use the good hard wood at night to burn hot all night and save money.
