The conservatory is a room made of windows. It is sometimes a freestanding building separate from the house and other times it is attached to the house. The freestanding building can give a full view all around the garden, while the attached room may have views blocked on one or more sides of the room.

There are many times that the weather may not be suitable for a walk in your garden. A conservatory is designed so that you can at least have a view through the windows and see the garden.

Traditionally, the windows of the conservatory were mad out of glass; however, today, they can be made of other materials. Some of the other options are much more energy efficient than glass. These materials can filter out the heat from the sun but still allow the light to enter into the room. This helps to keep the room comfortable even on warmer days.

In addition to the clear walls, the rooms often have clear roofs as well. Windows are designed to open in order to provide the necessary ventilation for the room.

Currently there are certain types of conservatories that can be built without requiring planning action. If your plans exceed certain maximums you may have to seek the permission of the planning division of your city however. Most of the better contractors that build conservatories are well versed in these rules and will be able to let you know if your plans are within the codes that require permission or if they can simply be built.
