Add more natural light, usable space and a stronger connection to your garden with a bespoke sunroom designed around your home.
A sunroom can provide a bright and versatile addition to your property, whether you are planning an extra lounge, dining area, home office or a relaxing space overlooking the garden.
What Is a Sunroom?
A sunroom is a home extension designed to bring more natural light into your property while creating additional living space with a strong connection to the garden.
Designs can vary considerably. Some sunrooms use large areas of glazing, while others combine windows with solid walls, brickwork and different roof styles.
Why Choose a Sunroom?
A well-designed sunroom can provide additional usable space while bringing more daylight and garden views into your home.
More Natural Light
Generous glazing can help create a bright and welcoming room while making better use of available daylight.
Flexible Living Space
Use the room as an additional lounge, dining area, home office, reading space or family room.
Garden Views
Large windows and glazed doors can create a stronger visual connection between your home and garden.
Made to Measure
The size, layout, glazing, colours and finishes can all be selected around your property and requirements.
Sunroom Ideas for Your Home
Sunrooms can be designed in a variety of ways depending on the available space, style of your property and how you want to use the finished room.
Contemporary Glass Sunrooms
Clean lines and generous glazed areas can create a modern extension with plenty of daylight and wide views across the garden.
Brick-Based Sunrooms
Combine solid walls or a brick base with glazed sections to balance privacy, natural light and the appearance of the existing property.
Lean-To Sunroom Extensions
A lean-to style can be a practical option for properties with limited space or where a lower and simpler roofline is preferred.

Extend an existing kitchen or dining area to create a bright space for meals, entertaining and everyday family life.

What Is the Difference Between a Sunroom and a Conservatory?
The terms can sometimes overlap, but the appearance and construction of individual projects can vary considerably.
Sunroom Design
A sunroom is generally designed around bringing natural light into the home and creating a strong connection with the garden.
Depending on the project, it may combine large areas of glazing with solid walls, brickwork and different roof options.
Conservatory Design
Traditional conservatories are often more heavily glazed and commonly follow recognised styles such as Victorian, Edwardian, lean-to or P-shaped.
Explore our conservatory range to compare the available styles.
What Can You Use a Sunroom For?
One of the main advantages of a sunroom is its flexibility. The finished space can be designed around how you and your family want to use it.
Living Room
Create an additional lounge with natural light and views across the garden.
Dining Area
Create a bright space for everyday meals and entertaining friends or family.
Home Office
Add a dedicated workspace away from the main living areas of your home.
Relaxation Space
Create somewhere comfortable to read, relax and enjoy views across the garden.
How the Position of Your Sunroom Can Affect Natural Light
The orientation and position of a sunroom can influence the amount and direction of natural light entering the space.
Property Orientation
The direction your sunroom faces can affect when it receives direct sunlight during the day.
Nearby Buildings & Trees
Surrounding properties, structures and mature trees can all influence the amount of daylight reaching the room.
Amount of Glazing
Window sizes, glazed doors and the overall design can all influence how light enters and moves through the new space.
