Oh, that's much bigger than I thought it was. What a lovely place to sit in the colder weather now that it's insulated; I know the cats must love it .....

Re: Conservatory....


Makes it almost like a proper room rather than a conservatory. Still, if it makes it a usable space in all seasons I guess the slight loss of light is a small price to pay.
