Last couple of years I've had two cheapo plastic sleeve "greenhouses" on a patio wall (East facing I think)
The wind has shredded then, and am thinking of replacing with something slightly more substantial - saw an ad in one of the weekend papers a couple of weeks back for 6 ft wide polycarb for £135 or so, but can't find anything similar (except halls for 300, don't think so)
* update - what I saw was green with a V roof
Any ideas where to look ?
Thanks !
You could try www.Argos.co.uk as they have some on there website.
Alternatively ebay or Amazon as well as B&Q and Wickes.

you can replace the plastic covers for about £9.99 and I am in the same boat the wind has completely shredded my plastic greenhouses too. I find the frames are okay for a few years as long as you don't try to dismantle them - the plastic gets brittle in the sun and snaps and the poles get rusted into the plastic.
I have had one lightweight greenhouse for about 7 years this will be it's third cover and once it has finally gone I will recycle the poles on the allotments so it may be disposable but I will get A lot of life from it..

There are a few choices. This (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/POLYTUNNEL-GREENHOUSE-POLY-TUNNEL-POLLYTUNNEL-GALVANISED-FRAME-WITH-COVER-GARDEN-/310637085335?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&var=&hash=item485369c297) is cheap and will proabably fall apart in a year or so but new covers are available - there are loads of these on ebay from various people.
These (http://www.robinsonpolytunnels.co.uk/acatalog/6ft_Polytunnels.html) are a step up but not so cheap - I would get one of these next time..
Gardman do a range of plastic tunnel type things (PDF (http://www.gardman.co.uk/sites/default/files/products/brochures/27348_B_Greenhouses_AW_27348_REF_AW_LoRes_100dpi.pdf)) - I have one but once again the covers dont last
