Elegantly Connected

Vine Cottage’s orangery is a remarkable example of how thoughtful architectural design can enhance both a home and its connection with nature. Transforming an unloved patio area into a beautiful living space, this bespoke addition seamlessly blends with the original Cotswold stone cottage.

The careful use of materials brings modern refinement while respecting the home’s rustic charm, creating an inviting transition between indoors and outdoors.

Project Statement

Every aspect of Vine Cottage’s orangery reflects precision craftsmanship and sophisticated design, elevating the ordinary to something truly special.

Framed in Light

At the heart of the Vine Cottage orangery is the stunning glazed structure crafted with W20 steel window sections and finished in an elegant anodic bronze powder coating. These bespoke steel frames, carefully shaped to follow the roofline, provide maximum natural light and uninterrupted views of the lush Cotswold landscape. Inside, exposed timber beams further enrich the character of the space, offering warmth and authenticity.

Whether basking in sunlight or hosting under the stars, the orangery beautifully merges home and garden, creating an atmosphere of tranquillity and connection.

We are absolutely delighted with the garden room extension that CCG have built for us. Throughout we have always had good conversations with Nathan and when the inevitable hiccups occurred, we could have positive conversations to resolve.

CCG were always available at whatever time. We were also pleased that the project came in on budget.
