According to Jason Orme, editor of Homebuilding & Renovating Magazine, some conservatories are "notorious" for overheating during the summer but being too cold when winter comes.

He outlined that while modern conservatory design should take such problems into account, it is best to have contingency plans in place.

"[You can think about] heating systems to be installed, whether that is electric underfloor heating or even spot heaters," he explained.

"Also, to ensure that they don't get too hot in the summer, it is down to the use of blinds, air conditioning and other ventilation as well."
