A New Greenhouse for Lime Wood Hotel

Lime Wood Hotel and Herb House Spa were drawn to Alitex by the flexibility in the people and the employees that have remained within the company for a long time. This mattered to them, as they believe in the depth of Alitex’s experience and knowledge, which isn’t easy to find.

The greenhouse itself is bespoke, it is free standing and measures 20.2 metres by 5.16 metres.

Cruciform in shape, the greenhouse boasts an extended lobby, 2 wings and a rear lobby attached to a brick potting shed. A tree decorates the centre of the greenhouse, surrounded on all sides by a wooden table and chairs. The team at Lime Wood use the greenhouse to create a serene environment to compliment the herb house spa, as well as a growing space for Mediterranean fruit, veg and herbs for their onsite restaurant and cookery school.

The greenhouse is painted in Wood Sage to blend with its natural and beautiful surroundings at Lime Wood. They have chosen to include Cold Frames running along both sides of the front lobby. Inside, each wing has our Greenhouse Benching and Strawberry Boards for optimum growing space.

The greenhouse has also been accessorised with our external Greenhouse Shades, a hot water heating system and automatic controlled ventilation. Combined, the Lime Wood team have full control over the growing conditions of their Mediterranean crops.

Lime Wood were impressed by the quality of the engineering, the solidity of the structure and the craftsmanship we have at Alitex.
