Frequently Asked Questions

What is an orangery?

Many people find it difficult to distinguish between conservatories and orangeries, but there are some crucial differences. Orangeries are generally brick-based structures. Most of the walls are brick, although large windows allow plenty of light to come into the orangery. An orangery’s roof may also include a flat roof and a roof lantern, or it may simply be a full lantern roof.

What is an orangery used for?

An orangery is an ideal place to work or relax. Full of calming natural light, they offer tranquillity and space to do whatever it is that you most enjoy.

Does an orangery add value?

Yes. Orangeries give a property both extra space and extra light. A good orangery will instantly add value to any property and make it even more attractive to any potential buyers.

Are orangeries cold in the winter?

No. Orangeries traditionally have brick walls, which helps significantly with insulation. Combine those brick walls with high-quality UPVC windows and a first-class roof lantern, and the temperature of an orangery is easy to maintain all year round.

Can I build an orangery without planning permission?

This is a complex area. The final answer depends on the size of the orangery you are planning to build. Under ‘permitted development’ rights, you are allowed to extend a house without applying for planning permission if specific limitations and conditions are met. View the full list of limitations.

Can you use an orangery all year round?

Yes, a good orangery built with good UPVC windows and roof lanterns will not get too hot in the summer and will not be too cold in the winter.
