You have an internal part fixed to a wall and an external part with a heat pump. One big enough to heat your room would cost about £400, The modern ones have infra red controllers so that you can programme temperatures and on off times. Plus it can cool the room if you ever get a hot summer:o)
Beez, OK I can see why it would not be a goer for you. Any other kind of electric heater produces exactly the same amount of heat for your bucks as any other no matter how 'high tech' it is . What is important is how the heat is delivered. I rate underfloor heating as the best as it is gentle heat, low down where your feet are, produces minimum draughts and because of that you can have the room a couple of degrees cooler for the same comfort level, so you save on electricity.
