<dc:title>Iron Age Roundhouse, Marthrown of Mabie</dc:title>
<dc:description>&lt;p&gt;Hidden from view in the depths of the beautiful Mabie Forest, is an extraordinary building.&amp;nbsp; An authentically reconstructed Iron Age Roundhouse stands in a clearing, its thatched roof smoking gently from the fire in the great central hearth inside.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Mike and Pam Hazelhurst run a multi-resource centre at Marthrown of Mabie, arranging outdoor education and training days on site, as well as a variety of accommodation (and yes, that includes the Roundhouse which is capable of sleeping sixteen people) which can be booked for holidays or short breaks.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Wildlife abounds through the ancient woodland and nearby lochans.&amp;nbsp; Red squirrels and woodpeckers come right down to the courtyard of cottages below the Roundhouse, and an unusual outdoor sauna, heated by a fierce woodburning stove, provides staying guests with birdsong in the bath.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;A warm welcome awaits you, as does the very helpful provision of a Criffel Coaches shuttle bus, from The Bike Shed up to Marthrown of Mabie itself, where you will be able to see the external construction of this wonderful piece of recreated history.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.marthrown.com/&quot;&gt;http://www.marthrown.com&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
