Nope, that's perfectly legal, as far as Google rankings rules go. The only caveat is that you should really issue a redirect permanent code (HTTP code 301). That way google knows that the eventual destination is the proper location, and will account for it in your rankings (and not ding you for spammy behavior).
The correct way to do a permanent redirect is in an Apache virtual server configuration. Here's an example:
Code:
<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName fireplaces2you.co.uk
ServerAlias *.fireplaces2you.co.uk
ServerAlias fire2u.co.uk
ServerAlias *.fire2u.co.uk
Redirect permanent ^/$ http://www.fire2you.co.uk
Redirect permanent ^/(.+)$ http://www.fire2you.co.uk/$1
</VirtualHost>
If you're not sure what you're looking at there, some google searches will clear it up.
