what the benefits of a conservatory over an extension are?
Yeah good question. Timely. As I understand it, conservatory is cheaper and the planning permission and BC requirements are less onerous.
To get one through now however there must be doors that open out to it so if done recently will feel very much like a separate bit of the house. They will be cold and they won't last as long and you'll have to clean them.
If you don't want one you might see it as a ball ache rather than a plus.

can someone explain what the benefits of a conservatory over an extension are? Seeing a few houses that we like that have conservatories and I'm not sure whether it should be thought of as feature or another thing to think about redoing/knocking down, if we have the money after the buying the house itself.
