Anne N said… “I’d just like to thank everyone at Lower Marsh Farm for a fantastic stay this weekend. I was really grateful to be able to come down on Thursday. It is a beautiful place, the food was amazing and everyone involved made it a perfect break.” May 2023

Kate S said…“I have now run two retreats at Lower Marsh Farm, and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough. As the facilitator, Olivia makes it all SO easy; arranging everything from catering to studio configuration. Her communication is prompt and helpful, and the farm is always immaculate. As for my guests, they leave having fallen in love with Lower Marsh Farm. This is because it feels like home as soon as you arrive; the rooms are clean and cosy, the food is out of this world, the scenery is peaceful and quiet, and Olivia and her team as so warm and helpful. We are always sad to leave, but drive away feeling relaxed, recharged and extremely full! I’m not sure any other venue could compete!” January 2023

Stephen S said…“Warm people, lovely rooms and delicious food. Ducks and every sort of activity you could ask for. The beds were comfy and the accommodation had everything we could have asked for. Olivia and Steph really looked after all of us. I had almost lost interest in food before I arrived at the farm. With a little love and care I feel like I was recalibrated back to enjoying eating with friends. Stay in a yurt! Become a yurt person , a yurtolian. Make friends with a tree, pick your favourite duck, jump in the river, Cautiously follow a peacock around. Enjoy life again.” October 2022
