About this property

Bramble Cottage, hidden gem in Comber, 20 mins from Belfast

Bramble Cottage is our recently renovated 200 year old Irish Barn conversion.

This hidden gem is just two miles from the market town of Comber and ten miles from Belfast. Our cottage has been designed to the highest standards with warm underfloor heating, a cosy wood burner for relaxing on colder evenings and a BBQ for long summer evenings.

Locally there's country walks, golf, sailing, forests, lough walks, country market, cycling and small villages. We love to accept dogs and have an enclosed garden.

Bramble Cottage is in the country and a car would be helpful, although there is safe walking and cycling for miles.

We are a few miles from Strangford Lough, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, offering breathtaking views and a variety of outdoor activities such as birdwatching, sailing, and kayaking.

Beautiful, Charming and spacious cottage

This cottage is a real gem of a find. We had a lovely relaxing week in November in this impeccably renovated and decorated 200 year old cottage which has original features blended with all the modern comforts you could need including underfloor heating and a cosy stove for evenings around the fire. The cottage itself is set in the rolling County Down hills with glimpses of the Mourne Mountains in the distance on winding walks around the quiet roads. We also enjoyed star gazing on the terrace with minimal light pollution in this countryside location. Our hosts Karen and Alistair couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful with any requests or advice. We would highly recommend this cottage for couples, families, or friends.

A gem of a place

We had a fantastic time at Bramble Cottage and hope to stay here another time. It's beautifully renovated and your heart lifts when you walk in. Spotlessly clean too. Set in beautiful countryside and it's so lovely and quiet. Delighted to have found it!
