    Hi,
    I've just gone sale agreed on a house with a North/West facing back garden. I know it isnt ideal but it was a compromise with other good aspects of the house. Can anyone out there tell me how much of an impact this will have on the light/sun/heat coming into the rear of the house i.e. is it that much of a big deal? I'd also love to hear some feedback from people with a similar aspect home who've managed to compensate for the lack of direct sunlight thru architectural design. Any ideas and feedback is much appreciated.

    It will be poor enough for daylight I would have thought but surely you have had a good look at it already.
    These situations can be quite interesting.
    Depending on surroundings, there should be options to get alot of light into the rear of the building if you are willing to do some building.
