For many people the word conservatory conjures up a picture of a glasshouse tacked onto the rear of a property, in which you can sit and read, surrounded by lush tropical plants. While this is certainly one possibility, conservatories have many more uses today and can represent a very attractive, and cost effective, improvement to your home.

Alternatively, it can be used as a dining room, an office, an additional bedroom, or simply as a much needed storage space. The use to which you can put a conservatory is constrained only by your imagination but, in all cases, it provides you with a way to increase the floor area of your property, perhaps to accommodate an increase in the size of your family, or a change in your family circumstances.

Building a conservatory can save you the expense and upheaval of moving to a bigger property, and can be a very cost effective way of both gaining additional space, and increasing the value of your property, at the same time.

One significant improvement seen when adding a conservatory is the amount of natural light that this brings into your home. Natural light is far more important than many people believe, and being able to sit and enjoy the sunshine, rather than having to switch on the electric light, can have a profound effect on both your mood and your health.

This is especially noticeable where your conservatory room is used regularly, for example, as a recreation room, dining room, or office.

Another great benefit of having a conservatory is the ability it gives you to enjoy your garden throughout the year. This particular benefit is most obvious in the summer when you can enjoy the flowers and blue cloudless skies. But you would be surprised by just how much more you can benefit from enjoying your garden in the winter. Even with a gray and overcast sky, there is often still plenty of natural light flooding into your conservatory, and there is always something to catch your attention in the garden, even in the depth of winter.

Conservatories come in all shapes, sizes and finishes these days and you can build a conservatory to meet just about any need you might have. Once you have your conservatory, if you are anything like most conservatory owners, you will find that you spend a significant amount of time in what is usually a warm, cozy and relaxing room, where you can even gain pleasure from listening to the rain falling onto the roof and running down the windows.
