Lower House Farm is a regenerative farm and venue in the Olchon Valley. It’s set amongst 70 acres of unspoilt landscapes, with ancient woodlands, narrow streams, wildflower meadows and a waterfall. 

From the moment you and your guests arrive, the team will help you make the most of your stay. They’ll help you plan your itinerary, find opportunities to gather together at a table and reconnect with the outdoors, as well as find time to relax and make memories that will last a lifetime.  

Lower House Farm recommends using Old Great Marlborough as a base for your stay. The nearby farmhouse accommodation can comfortably sleep up to 22 of your nearest and dearest. While the cosy mountain pub, The Bull’s Head, is just down the road from the farm and has four cabins that each sleep two people. It’s the ideal place to gather the evening before the main day or to unwind and reconnect with your guests for lunch the day after. 

On the farm, there are plenty of spaces inside and out for you to plan your day. At the heart of the farm stands a stone and oak-framed barn, a wonderful space accommodating up to 100 people for feasting and celebrating. Outside, you’ll find the covered yard, large open meadows with a 600-year-old oak tree (a favourite for ceremonies), communal patios and orchards. If you need some 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.

Something borrowed, something blue’ is out – but 1 in 4 Brits still value wedding cards

New research from Moonpig reveals the top wedding card writing confessions. A whopping 30% of Brits admit to defaulting to a safe "congratulations!" because they simply can't think of anything else to say.

What's more, when stuck for words, one in 10 (8%) admit to turning to AI for inspiration - this rises to one in seven (14%) among 25–34-year-olds. Brits are not alone in facing this wedding card conundrum. More than half of Brits (55%) admit they have struggled with at least one aspect of wedding message writing. Nearly one in four find wedding cards (23%) or guest-book messages (24%) difficult, while one in five (20%) hit writer's block when preparing the all-important wedding speech.
