The Larches - Environmentally Friendly Lakeland Cottage

New windows, new warmth ..

windows1Yes it’s a cottage for all seasons but despite thick walls, we’ve always needed plenty of winter heating. Why? Draughty windows! Last month we had well-sealed double glazed windows installed. We’re already feeling the difference.

Moving towards carbon neutral homes requires retrofitting old traditional buildings like The Larches and we’ll be monitoring energy usage carefully over the coming months. If you have experience in this area, let us know in the comments section.
