Greenhouses
If you have a close relative or friend that is a keen gardener or is looking for a new hobby, greenhouse kits are a great option. Is there a little corner of the garden which they’ve been meaning to get around to working on for ages, where nothing ever seems to work out as planned? Clearing it to make space for a greenhouse could give them the gardening treat they’ve always dreamed of – and with so many different greenhouse types available today it’s easy to find the perfect fit, no matter the style of their garden.
- Modern greenhouses: can be assembled quickly
- Kits: with a friend you could assemble them overnight
- Opportunities and pleasures which are otherwise out of reach in most climates, grow exotic flowers or to cultivate delicious fruit or herbs for the dinner table.

- Timber-framed structures: add a charming rural quality to your home and its surroundings
