Lower Marsh Farm Business & Conferencing

Full information

Award winning location in the stunning Tamar Valley on the Cornwall / Devon border with over 40 acres of peaceful seclusion including an orchard, private woodland, shingle river beach (tidal) and Salt Marsh Nature Reserve (a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest). The venue is conveniently located just 15 minutes from Plymouth and easy to find but benefits from the secluded feel of being a million miles from City life. It is a magical location with wildlife everywhere including deer, badgers, kingfishers, owls and bats nesting on the farm and regularly visible.

The farm is sustainably managed in a gentle and environmentally friendly manner.

The venue is ideal for those who want a special experience for their clients or team members where there is plenty to do once the training or work has finished; nature, walking, tennis, well-being and self-care opportunities.

Owned and operated by an experienced customer-service focused team, you can relax knowing that your clients will be well looked after at this gorgeous training venue.
