What Is An Orangery?
Orangeries originated in Italy during the 16th century as structures designed to protect and sustain exotic fruit trees like oranges during harsh European winters. They were symbols of wealth and luxury due to their high cost and later became architectural structures enhancing the beauty of estate gardens.
Unlike conservatories, which have a fully glazed roof, orangeries have a solid, perimeter flat roof with one or more roof lanterns. This design allows for a blend of luxury and year-round usage. They have played a significant role in British architecture and culture, adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to homes. We’ve partnered with industry experts Ultraframe to provide their incredible orangeries to the people of Wiltshire.
One of the significant advantages of these structures is their flexibility in terms of design and customisation. Homeowners in Wiltshire can customise their extension to suit their desired needs and preferences. Whether you prefer a traditional design or a modern, minimalist style, you can create a space that reflects your personal taste and complements your home’s architecture.
Modern Designs
Modern orangeries are crafted using advanced technologies and premium materials, offering both added space and value to homes. Their appeal has been enhanced by innovative designs and high-quality construction, typically featuring stone, brick, and hardwood. Unlike conservatories, orangeries have less than 75% of the roof glazed, ensuring a well-insulated, comfortable living space that is beautifully filled with natural light.
Security is a crucial aspect of any home addition, and orangeries are no exception. They’re equipped with various security features to enhance the safety and value of your home, including robust locks, reinforced glass, and strengthened structures. These security features not only protect your home from potential intruders but also add to the overall value of your property. A secure extension is a worthwhile investment that offers peace of mind and a safe space for you and your family to enjoy.
Orangeries are known for their robustness and longevity. They are built using durable materials like stone, brick, and hardwood, which can withstand the elements and last for many years. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning the glass and checking the seals, can further its durability.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Difference Between An Orangery and A Conservatories?
The main difference lies in the construction and design. An orangery typically has a solid, perimeter flat roof with one or more roof lanterns, while a conservatory has a fully glazed roof. This design difference results in orangeries having less glass than conservatories, providing better insulation and making them suitable for year-round use.
