Review This ProductSwallow Raven 8 x 16 ft ThermoWood Greenhouse with 8 x 4 ft Shed
We are committed to Low Prices.
If you find any of our products on the price promise pages advertised, and in stock and immediately available, at any of our competitors we will endeavour to match the price.
The Raven 8 x 16 ft ThermoWood Greenhouse with 8 x 4 ft Shed has been uniquely crafted and features a very useful shed extension that will be built directly onto the rear of the greenhouse, giving you extra storage and working space.
The unique construction of this greenhouse involves the use of ThermoWood® to construct the frame. ThermoWood® is an extremely durable and long-lasting timber, has a more consistent finish when compared to other timbers, and won't succumb to the effects of warp and rot with a massive life expectancy of up to 50 years. These effects are achieved by putting the sustainably sourced Scandinavian timber through a special kind of heat-treatment whereby any excess moisture and resin is removed from the wood.
Your greenhouse will come with many included features, not to mention the 8 x 4 ft shed extension complete with shelving that will be installed to its rear end, including 4 automatic roof vents to provide air circulation and temperature control inside the shed, a PVC damp barrier that gets installed underneath the greenhouse, full-length staging down one side of the greenhouse providing you with crucial working space and 3mm toughened safety glass that, using high-quality silicone, gets installed directly into the sides of the greenhouse along pre-cut grooves.
Optional Extras for your Swallow Greenhouse
A wide range of extras are available to add to your order below. Staging along one side is included as standard in your Swallow GB Greenhouse, however, an additional High Level Shelf and Extra Staging is an option. The Hunter Gutter and Downpipe Kit allows you to collect and re-use rainwater - the best water for all plants - this is available as an optional extra below.
Please Note: Imagery may show Raven greenhouses of a different size and with optional extras that must be purchased separately. A suitable flat, level and sturdy base must be prepared before the delivery / Installation date to ensure a hassle free installation.

Fast Free Delivery within Mainland England and Wales.
Inclusive delivery and installation are limited to mainland England, Wales and Scotland up to a maximum of 15 miles further North of Glasgow.
Unfortunately, Swallow greenhouses cannot be delivered and installed to areas of Scotland above 15 miles North of Glasgow or the Scottish Highlands free of charge, so additional costs would apply as detailed in the options above. Delivery and installation can't be carried out to Offshore Islands and Isles, Northern Ireland, or the Republic of Ireland.
Delivery Period
Delivery will typically be made within 5 - 8 weeks for standard Thermowood, Oiled frames, and Painted greenhouses frames to the majority of locations upon ordering, and after confirming that your base area is prepared and ready for installation of your new greenhouse.
*Note: Some delivery locations such as Scotland, Devon, and Cornwall, as well as Ilfracombe, Exeter and anything West off unfortunately currently have extended delivery timeframes due to the additional distance required for the delivery and for our installation team to travel. This can be up to an additional 4 weeks on top of the standard quoted lead times.
All Swallow greenhouses are crafted to order, so maybe extended during busy times of the year.
Bespoke Product Procedure
This product range is made to order on an order-by-order basis, therefore is exempt from our usual cancellation and returns policy. Any cancellations after your order has started production may not be able to be cancelled or may be subject to cancellation charges. Although a very rare occurrence, this does not affect any orders that arrive damaged or faulty, whereby our normal terms on receiving a faulty product will apply.
Vehicles We Use
Items will be delivered on larger lorries which can get to most places it's typically, a 7.5-ton lorry which is about the size of a dustbin lorry, this will depend on the item that is being delivered and should you have any concerns with restricted access to your property we ask you to contact us prior to placing an order.
Unloading Of Your Delivery
Back garden access is required from the front of the property, as due to the size of the product and the large sections that they are delivered in, the installation/delivery team are unable to carry these items inside your home as the sections are unlikely to pass through standard indoor door sizes. When the item is delivered on a pallet, the pallet and packaging are non-returnable. Goods can only be maneuvered on a flat and level surface (i.e. not a gravel driveway) by a pallet truck. If the installation/delivery team is unable to gain access to the installation area from the front of the property, they may not be able to complete the installation, and a cancellation or rebooking charge may apply.
Base Preparation
A suitable, flat, and level base must be prepared prior to the arrangement of delivery and installation, which can affect the delivery and installation timeframe - so please ensure that this is pre-prepared as soon as possible so that your greenhouse can begin production. The installation team will contact you approx 3 weeks in advance and will request a photo of the proposed installation area before being able to confirm a delivery and installation date. This is to ensure that the area is ready and suitable, ensuring successful installation on the day.
