The Merry Mare Bar
​​After a hugely successful summer here in 2025, we’re delighted to say The Merry Mare is now a permanent partnership with Little Lodge Farm.
​
Born from long summer evenings, happy riders, and well-earned post-ride drinks, The Merry Mare has quickly become a favourite gathering spot for our guests. What started as a seasonal pop-up has grown into a full bar and food offering, adding even more comfort and character to your stay with us.
​
The Merry Mare offers a full bar service alongside a delicious, carefully curated menu, perfect for relaxed lunches, hearty evening meals, and celebratory drinks after a day exploring the forest. Whether you’re staying in one of our lodges, camping with your horse, or simply soaking up the atmosphere, the bar provides a welcoming space to unwind.
​
True to the spirit of Little Lodge Farm, The Merry Mare is informal, friendly, and horsey at heart — a place where muddy boots are welcome, stories are shared, and everyone feels at home.
