Now, it may seem odd at the height of summer to be posting a Natter accompanied by a snowy picture of Marthrown of Mabie (Dumfries) Bunkhouse, but many groups have booked their New Year and Christmas accommodation already. So add the snowy sauna scene to the wood burning stoves, spring-water hot tub and peaceful forest setting and I think we’re getting close to an ideal place for alternative winter celebrations.
There is accommodation is in the Forest Bunkhouse , as well as a Tipi , two Yurts , and wild camping area with stunning views over to the Lake District. But what really grabs the attention is their famous Iron Age Roundhouse.
