Award winning cosy cottage with private hot tub & log burner
Multi-award winning Lower Marsh Farm, Landulph, is set within an Area of Outstanding National Beauty on the River Tamar. A former Duchy of Cornwall renowned daffodil farm, Lower Marsh Farm is on the outskirts of the pretty village of Landulph benefiting from the secluded feel of being a million miles from City life but with the convenience of being striking distance of modern amenities.
Orchard Cottage (named after its private garden which overlooks the Orchard across to the Woods) is a Victorian Gothic style attached property which provides romantic cosy accommodation for 2-3 people staying at Lower Marsh Farm. Set all on the ground floor with a modern eat-in kitchen, stylish bathroom, comfortable living and sleeping area with oak flooring and a wood burner.

After a day of exploring the Farm and nearby areas, relax with a drink in front of the roaring log burner – there is an ample supply of logs provided.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage hosted by Olivia. The place was spotless, cozy, and exactly as described. It had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay, and the peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind. Olivia was a fantastic host: friendly, responsive, and thoughtful, making sure everything was perfect from check-in to check-out. We truly felt at home and would absolutely recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. We’d love to stay here again!
Very nice welcome from owner, everything exactly like they say on website,we had very nice time kids was enjoying the hot tub the most, played tennis all
Lovely surroundings, gorgeous property . Plenty of amenities to keep children occupied. We had lovely family of peacocks visiting us every morning waiting for us to come and greet them. Our downfall was that we weren’t at the property for long enough to use them we would have loved a day in to explore but our stay was too short and we had lots planned in cornwall. Would definitely return. Thank you Olivia
Lovely property within fantastic quiet surroundings. We stayed in orchard cottage with hot tub which was great, also secluded garden for our dog, plenty to do including tennis and table tennis. Lovely walks directly from the property and so peaceful, only thing we heard was the farm peacocks and ducks on a morning at feeding time. We loved the log fire and cottage was so cosy. Only thing I could recommend is new mattress which would have made the stay even more comfortable than it already was but minor detail really.
We enjoyed every minute x the cottage was absolutely perfect x we loved the welcome gift x the apple juice and homemade jam was wonderful x thankyou so much for the loan of the wellies we walked for miles with our dog x tbh there is nothing we could have moaned about at lower marsh farm it was just perfect x thanks x
Yet again an amazing time here
This place is heaven, quiet, private, clean, comfortable, friendly & beautiful animals in surrounding area
to look at, Hot tub perfect, beautiful private garden, everything you need is there, I could live here its that nice
See you next year xx
We absolutely loved the consistent level of tranquility throughout our stay. The host, Olivia, was attentive whenever we required anything or had any queries. The property is very comfortable, cosy and has an air of warmth that leaves you feeling relaxed and refreshed when you leave. Being surrounded by ducks, peacocks and birdsong made our experience that much more special. The grounds are expansive and really taken care of by the owners. We had so much fun on the tennis court, which made for the perfect entertainment during our stay. We just wish that we had stayed there for longer than a week. In the future, we would very much love to return with our dog. It's definitely a place that will leave guests inspired by all the work that the owners have done with the property and land. Thank you for having us.

Beautiful relaxing location with access to stunning estuary views
Compact cottage ideal for one or two people. It had everything I needed for a relaxing stay tucked away in the countryside with access to local walks and stunning views. The owners were really friendly and helpful, and the pre-prepared meals you can order were delicious. All I needed for a short getaway.

Saltash stay
Overall we enjoyed our stay, the location was very good and the cottage was lovely. Our only feedback is that when we arrived there was a little bit of cleaning to be done in the kitchen and while we were a little bit late we were not shown around. The hot tub was great albeit we lost 1 day usage due to the control panel it didn’t fail but it was a bit tricky to work. The main attraction to the property for us was the private beach which was very different to what we expected from the rental description. It was a bit boggy, no water and very difficult to walk on and slippy.
From arrival to leaving, the cottage was an idyllic get away from noise and cars and super to come back to after we went out for a day when the weather allowed. Comfy, warm, everything you need. A superb bathroom and a great hot tub which was used across the stay whilst watching the ducks go by! Great local eggs from the ducks and hens. There’s also a beautiful peacock and peahen, to sit and admire!
We order food for our arrival and some extras, it was all superb and every detail taken care of.
Thank you Olivia, a special birthday weekend indeed.
Stayed at the cottage for our 25th wedding anniversary, when we arrived we had a card and a cake left for us also milk so we could have a cuppa. Beautiful cottage with everything you would need for your stay with beautiful views and walks to go on. Hot tub was amazing just lovely early evening with a glass of wine. Would recommend this place for any romantic get away. Had a wonderful time and hopefully book the bigger cottage to bring the children with us.
Overall we really enjoyed our stay on Lower Marsh Farm - it was beautiful and so lovely to be able to walk around and see the other animals.
We personally drove to other places during our stay as there isn't a huge amount to do in the immediate area, but it was lovely coming back to the peace of the cottage and sitting in the afternoon sun in the hot tub.
