Marthrown is set in the heart of Mabie Forest, about 6 miles south of Dumfries. It has a traditional sauna, a wood burning spring water hot tub, a large BBQ, garden areas and plenty of room for groups. The forest itself has newly developed mountain bike routes, ranging in length and difficulty. Bike hire is nearby as is the 7 Stanes mountain bike trails. Although we are a self-catering hostel meals are available to order.
Marthrown is suitable for all age groups. Facilities include secure dry store for bikes and equipment and a large dining area suitable for meetings. For something a little different why not try staying in the Roundhouse or Yurt.
