Workshop heaven is good for small quantities of specialist wood, just don't let the tool pron drag you in!
Alternatively most Axminsterhttps://www.axminster.co.uk/stores/ stores sell a small selection of decent rough sawn hardwood but it's got and miss as to what they have in stock.
For larger quantities these are good:
Moss and co
Surrey timber
I've been re-directed here from the 'any question' thread:
Does anyone know a trustworthy source of high-quality (!) hardwood in small quantities? Needs to be fine-grained and dense, well-aged preferred; Swiss pear, chequers, boxwood (possibly Castello), maybe cherry. Purpose: scale model building.
Obviously this can be relatively expensive, which is fine, as long as the wood is actually what it's supposed to be. I see some online sources (even on ebay), but I'm not sure yet which ones might be trustworthy.
