About

The Setting

Lower House Farm is a regenerative farm and venue in the Olchon Valley, Herefordshire. Set amongst seventy acres of unspoilt landscapes, ancient woodlands, narrow streams, wildflower meadows and even their own waterfall!

On the farm, there are plenty of spaces inside and out for you to plan your day. At the heart of the farm stands their stone and oak-framed barn, a wonderful space for feasting and celebrating. Outside, you’ll find their covered yard, large open meadows with a 600-year-old oak tree (a favourite for ceremonies), communal patios, and orchards. If you need time for an intimate moment, escape into the wilderness for a while.

However you want to celebrate, the farm is yours. A beautiful blank canvas to plan your perfect day.

The Vibe

Lower House Farm believes in your vision. This family-run team offers a flexible approach, allowing you to personalise the venue and bring your dream wedding to life. With a dedicated wedding coordinator, they can provide as much or as little support as you desire, putting you in the driver’s seat of your wedding planning journey.

Exclusive to you, the beautifully restored 17th-century barn with vaulted ceilings, flagstone floors, and oak timber beams can accommodate to feast on long wooden tables with sheepskin-adorned benches. Once transformed for the evening, it can accommodate 120 guests for feasting and 150 guests to party the night away.

Your wedding feast will be cooked in the wood-fired outdoor kitchen using home-raised meat and in-house veg from the farm’s allotment. While your guests mingle, they can watch the kitchen magic happen and enjoy wafts of succulent joints of meat and charred seasonal veg being prepared.

Take a stroll to the secret waterfall, play lawn games in the huge field bordering the Olchon River, have photos with the dramatic mountain backdrop, and even toast marshmallows around the firepit come sunset-a wildly beautiful space to host a day to remember.

Camp near the river (sleeps 50) or book a stay at their nearby country farmhouse, Old Great Marlborough, sleeping 22.

My husband and I got married here in September 2023. We initially found the venue whilst trawling through Google, and it immediately caught our eye. Upon our initial viewing, we fell in love with the gorgeous farm and surrounding landscape. Natalie, our wedding coordinator, was beyond helpful and made the whole process as easy and as stress-free as possible. The food tasting we went to a few months after choosing the venue made for some very difficult decisions. All of the food was amazing

Rebecca & Scott

We booked our wedding at Lower House Farm two years in advance (during the pandemic), and throughout the whole lead-up to our big day, the Wild By Nature team remained attentive, accommodating, thoughtful and supportive in every way you could ask for! Their venue absolutely sang in the Autumn sunshine and we were so thrilled to be able to have our ceremony under their stunning oak tree. Having the wedding breakfast in the restored barn on their long feasting tables gave it exactly the convivial,

We cannot recommend Lower House Farm enough. We first viewed the venue in August 2021 and were so happy to finally get married in June 2023. The location is simply breathtaking, and the venue and setting complement each other perfectly, a beautifully cared for collection of barns and spaces which feel relaxed and welcoming. The team at Lower House Farm were so attentive, both in the lead-up to our wedding and on the day itself, delivering a brilliant service whilst remaining discrete

We literally can’t express how grateful we are to you for making our BIG day soooo special, but we’re going to try… We came here for Anna’s birthday last year and as we drove down the drive, we looked at each other, grinned and said ‘let’s get married here’. This is such a unique location and you have all worked so hard to make a fantastic, homemade and relaxing place where friends and family can meet to celebrate with each other. So many of our friends told us that the food was the best wedding meal they had ever had. Your enthusiasm, has been great, and has made me feel so calm in the lead up to the day. Thank you so, so, so much for helping this be the best day of our lives. P.S. We can’t wait to come again.

A great venue with amazing food. We got married here, so it’s very special to us, the setting and staff were great. We’ve also been to another wedding here, and another ‘feast’ in the autumn. You can’t beat the food, locally sourced meat on their, and other local farms. There’s a beautiful, big Oak tree at the bottom of the field, with a little stream below. And post the farm house is a little waterfall that’s worth the 5 minute walk

We had the most fabulous wedding day at Lower House Farm, it was perfect. As soon as we arrived at the top of the drive and saw the beautiful hills and the farm nestled in the valley – we just knew that this was the perfect place for us. Fran, Ed and the rest of the team were so welcoming and helpful and nothing was ever too much trouble. The food was delicious – we had so many compliments from our guests. The waiting staff were friendly and helpful and made everyone feel at ease. You will be in very safe hands with Fran, Ed and team and we wholeheartedly recommend celebrating your special day here.
