TV personality and hospitality expert selects luxury timber greenhouse as a space for growing, dining and entertaining.
Fred Sirieix has chosen Hampton‘s flagship greenhouse for his home garden, creating a unique ‘plant to plate’ space where ingredients can be grown, harvested and enjoyed in the very same setting.
Featuring Hampton’s signature projecting pavilion design, The Causeway greenhouse model will be used by Fred not only as a greenhouse but also as a destination within the garden, somewhere to enjoy morning coffee, host relaxed lunches and entertain family and friends. Complete with dining furniture, the space reflects Fred’s passion for great food, hospitality and bringing people together.
Hampton’s heritage
For more than 45 years, Hampton has been renowned for crafting exceptional timber structures, including bespoke orangeries and conservatories. The company recently expanded into the luxury greenhouse market with a collection of architecturally inspired timber greenhouses designed for discerning homeowners and gardening enthusiasts.
Commenting on his decision, Fred Sirieix said: “I wanted a greenhouse that was not only practical for growing plants and produce, but also a beautiful place to spend time, somewhere with real craftsmanship, character and elegance.
“As someone who has spent a lifetime working in hospitality, I’ve always appreciated where great food comes from. The idea of nurturing ingredients from seed to harvest and then enjoying them just moments later, surrounded by the plants that produced them, really appealed to me. There’s something wonderfully authentic about that connection from plant to plate.”
Mervyn Montgomery, founder and joint director of Hampton, said: “We are delighted that Fred chose The Causeway for his home garden. He immediately understood what makes this greenhouse different. While it provides exceptional growing conditions, it’s also a place to relax, entertain and enjoy the produce you’ve cultivated yourself.
“The Causeway was designed to be much more than a traditional greenhouse. It’s a beautiful garden retreat that combines horticulture, architecture and lifestyle in one space. Fred’s vision for using it as somewhere to grow, gather and dine perfectly reflects what we set out to achieve with the design.”
Sustainability at the heart of Hampton greenhouses
Every Hampton greenhouse is handcrafted from FSC-certified, high-performance modified timber, engineered for exceptional dimensional stability and long-term durability, ensuring genuine environmental accountability.
Mervyn Montgomery continued: “Sustainability was non-negotiable for us from the very beginning. It’s simply not justifiable to create a product designed to celebrate horticulture and connect people with nature if its manufacture comes at an unnecessary environmental cost.”
Alongside The Causeway, Hampton’s greenhouse collection includes The Balmoral, The Dunluce and The Strangford, each available in three different sizes and designed according to the company’s enduring principles of symmetry, proportion and architectural excellence.
Fred’s greenhouse installation and journey can be followed through a series of videos shared across Hampton’s social media channels.
