Outdoor SunSpaces News

Outdoor living structures extend the use of your garden and extend the period in which you can use it. If you have a garden that needs that extra wow-factor, an outdoor living structure would be perfect for you. Not only will an outdoor space entice you to go outside more, it will also give you that extra space to relax, unwind and appreciate the outdoor surroundings, whether rain or sun.

There are a range of outdoor living structures on the market and each type of structure has different values, so depending on your style, requirements and property type, there are specific structures we would recommend. Each of the structures we recommend can be externally styled to your choice, however, when it comes to internal décor, we think a table and chairs and maybe a relaxation area works best!

Awnings 

If you currently have a patio or garden area that you would like sheltering, Awnings are the perfect outdoor structure for you, suitable for rain or sun. These are great if you don’t have much space in the garden as they can be retracted when you don’t need them. Awnings are better suited to properties that get a lot of sun as they are good for protecting you from the summer heat-rays without adding that extra space that you may not desire or have. 

Compact Awnings 

Compact Awnings are suitable for canopying sun in the summer months! This structure would be best suited to someone who has a smaller-scaled patio/garden area they would like covered, and would be great for domestic customers.

Compact Awning

Lite Awnings 

Lite Awnings, however, are a larger outdoor living structure, suited to large verandas or patios. This outdoor structure comes integrated with LED lights so you really do get that wow-factor about your property. We recommend Lite Awnings to those who love being outdoors, especially in the evenings when you can really admire the aesthetic of this outdoor living structure. With their LED lights, this style is great for get-togethers, small parties, evening meals or even, reading and relaxing after a busy day.

Elite Awnings

Who knew there could be so many Awning types?  Elite Awnings are the perfect outdoor living structure if covering a very large parameter, perhaps a hotel/B&B or even someone with a very large home (jealous!!). What’s great about these Awning’s is that they use innovative technology that allows them to be opened and closed with a simple remote!

Verandas

Verandas are a fantastic outdoor living structure if you are after that Awning style but a little more protection against the elements. Verandas can be fit to almost any space and allow you to admire your garden even when it’s raining; is there any better feeling than listening to the rain? Well, you can listen to the rain from the outdoors and stay dry… perfect!  

Glass Verandas 

SunSpaces have an array of Veranda types to suit your preference, home, and design. Aspire Verandas add sophistication to your property, without taking up lots of space. The Glass roof of Aspire Verandas provides suitable protection, even in the nastiest of weather. Glass Verandas can also be detached, meaning you don’t have to have it directly next to your property. If you’d like a detached outdoor living space in another part of your garden, somewhere to relax other than in your home, then Glass Verandas are for you.

Infinity Verandas 

Infinity Verandas’ flexible structures mean they can be designed to directly suit your property and your needs. We acknowledge that each home is unique and different, that’s why the Infinity Verandas are customised – you can choose your roof material and the number of side panels you would like – giving you only the best Veranda with the greatest flexibility of design and structure.

Sky Line Verandas 

Outdoor living structures can be tricky to choose depending on the weather and your style. However, SkyLine Verandas can adapt to the weather types – meaning you don’t have to worry about getting wet or being too hot. These outdoor living structures are made with a canvas roof, you can protect yourself from the shade or sun and retract it when you’d like to catch some rays!

Garden Rooms 

Additionally, if you would like an extra room at the end of your property, where you can eat, sleep, relax and most importantly enjoy your surroundings, a Garden Room is for you. These structures protect you from every element and can even be designed to have heaters and surround sound systems - now that’s tailor-made! Garden Rooms can be made to any size and come in an array of colours; Grey, Aluminium, white and Cream.

Infinity Garden Room

Infinity Garden Rooms are one of the most luxurious outdoor living structures around as they are completely bespoke and tailored to your space. You get to choose the style; whether it be the roof, walls, doors and any other optional extras you can think of that will make your outdoor experience memorable. 

Infinity Garden Room

Serenity 

The Serenity outdoor structure is ideal for summer weathers – they look great at the edges of gardens or on patio areas and are a fantastic shelter for when it gets a little cooler in the evenings. We recommend this structure if you like spending a lot of time outdoors! The Serenity works perfect with some comfy chairs and a heater, giving you that ultimate summer garden experience.  

Serenity Garden Room

Haven

The name says it all really. The Haven Garden Rooms are great if you would like some peace and quiet, whilst still enjoying the view of the outdoors. This style would be a perfect extra for any home and with its lockable doors, you really can shut off to the world and relax.

Why add a garden office?

The British climate can be challenging. Take the last two weeks as a prime example – Easter half-term has come and gone and the weather has not exactly been warm and welcoming!  Even when it's not windy, it may be showery. When it's not sunny, it may be windy. And when the temperature drops just that little more, basking in the sunlight is but a desire.   The solution to this is to add a glass room or veranda to your home.

The solution: A Glass Room

Glass rooms are exactly that, an additional room made of glass. Protected from the rain, wind and marginal temperatures, you can relax and be in your garden for many more months each year.

The rooms are designed to your exact needs, and many people choose to have the ability to open up the glass walls on all sides. This allows you to shield yourself from the predominant wind direction while the sun is making you nice and warm. Or perhaps the sun is doing too good a job! Open the windward side and have a nice cool breeze to keep you just at the right temperature.

Verandas and glass rooms extend your living space by making the garden part of your home. The immediate transition of inside-to-outside now has a zone. You can either  sit inside your SunSpace and be protected from the elements, or you  can open up the sides and enjoy the sweet fragrances from the flowers and enjoy listening the sounds of nature coming from your garden space.

Another reason to sit back and relax is that these glass rooms add genuine resale value to your home. These high-quality extensions are very low maintenance. You will spend more time relaxing!

A Mediterranean  Lifestyle

Grab a book, a drink, and sink back into a comfy couch. Enjoy the sound of the rain tapping on the glass. Get sleepy as the sun warms you. Your glass room turns another spring or autumn day into a day in your garden.

Some people bring the garden into their glass room. Container vegetable gardening, ferns, or flowers, there are many ways to make the space even more pleasant. The transition from your home into your garden will be even more successful.

Because these rooms are designed specifically for your home, they can take advantage of any kind of space. Space you might have considered unusable because of its shape, size, or location becomes your favourite spot to sit back and let the worries of the day fade away.

Bring Luxury to your Home Today

Arrange for someone from SunSpaces to come and see you and discuss your requirements.   From a modern veranda through to a fully insulated glass room with automated lighting, shade, and climate control – we can cater for all your needs.

So, next time you feel trapped in your own home because of inclement weather, think about how nice it would be to have a glass room of your own.

Perhaps you’ve toyed with the idea of adding a sunspace to your home. Perhaps, to get some ideas you’ve been looking online, at magazines or even at other people’s houses. You like what you see, but you have trouble deciding what would be best. Something in white, something in black, or grey? A sunspace with a solid roof or a glass roof? 

At SunSpaces we take the worry out of your plans. We have a team of design experts who are also CAD specialists, a nifty computer program that allows them to create lifelike 3D designs of sunspaces. You can call us at 029-2080-3756, send an email to info@sunspaces.co.uk or fill in the form on our website. What we need from you is your name, your email address, phone number, the dimensions of the projects and any comments you might have. With this information, our designers get to work. When they have something set up, one of them will contact you to finalize the design.

If this or that needs changing, this will be done in a jiffy. After all, this is your design and you need to be happy with it. If you are satisfied with what you see we supply the materials and you can build the sunspace yourself, or if you’re not the youngest or the handiest of people, we will build it for you.

The creators of a 3D design of a sunspace do more than just present you with a structure though. Creative as this team is, they can include furniture and greenery for the sunspace. That way you get a clear idea of what you can do to turn this space into an addition of your home. 

Just think about it, British weather is unpredictable and if you can enjoy your garden from May to September, you’re lucky. With a sunspace, you can enjoy it from March to October. 

Once you have a sunspace, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it. It’s a place where you can send the kids when they get too noisy, where you can get together with friends without disturbing the rest of the house, or where you can sit and gaze at the moon and the stars with a loved one. Do you crave solitude? A sunspace can be a retreat for you to sit and relax, read a book, or work on your craft in peace and quiet. 

If you need inspiration, visit our gallery and see what’s available. There are cozy garden rooms, beautiful verandas, and luxurious glass extensions. You look, you decide, you let us know the dimensions, and we build your dream sunspace. First in 3D, then for real.
