Lean-to Conservatories

The Lean-to, or Sunroom conservatory, is the simplest style of conservatory, originating from greenhouses that were built to face the southern sun. These days, the lean-to, Mediterranean style conservatory is number one on the list for people wanting to improve their homes. with clean lines that can give it a contemporary or a more traditional look.

Whether traditional or contemporary, the Lean-to style is perfect for properties that have restricted space under the eaves, like a bungalow, or have an area that's too awkward to accommodate a conservatory. This is because the pitch of the roof on lean-to conservatories can vary – so a shallow pitch can fit under a low bungalow roof and a steeper one would be ideal for a terraced house.

Lean-to conservatories can also be called sunrooms or garden rooms, and they bring a flavour of the Mediterranean into your home, trapping the winter sunlight and converting it into heat through the glass. The simple shape of the lean-to conservatory gives you the maximum space in a highly economical style.
