Misread my own title then as 'Conservatives' then... they are a waste of space too tbf but my AIBU is about the uselessness of conservatories of the glass room variety.
Went to view a house yesterday. It's perfect except for the fact that it has a conservatory. The sellers had the standard wicker type furniture in there and it looked nice enough but in my experience the space is only ever fleetingly useful in maybe spring and autumn.
My experiences of having a conservatory previously have been that it's either so hot in them that you can't sit for longer than 5 minutes without feeling like you are going to pass out, OR they are absolutely bloody freezing and any efforts to warm them with additional heating are completely fruitless as the warmth wastes zero time escaping through the glass.
What is the point?! Have I just been stuck with really shit conservatories and other people don't have these problems?
We'd like to put an offer on the house but the conservatory is bugging me already!
What do you do with yours? Do you actually use it all year?
I think I'm kind of wanting someone to tell me IABU and sell the idea that they aren't a waste of space as I really love this house!
