Comby Hills
Ancient pasture below the main road with an unusual geological formation of “comby hills”
We’re lucky enough to live in one of Northumberland’s most scenic valleys, in a county renowned for its unspoilt rural and archaeological landscapes, beautiful beaches and unique heritage. Our luxurious self-catering holiday cottages enjoy a peaceful setting in the traditional farming village of Branton, with the magnificent Cheviot Hills and Northumberland National Park on the doorstep.
From purple heather on rolling hills to sweeping sandy beaches along a stunning coast, Northumberland really does offer some of the best walking and touring country in England.
Whether you’re looking for solitude in beautiful hill country studded with ancient hill forts, or interested in wildlife watching and beachcombing on spectacular seashores, or exploring the turbulent past of this historic border country through the prism of historic castles such as Alnwick, Bamburgh, Dunstanburgh and Warkworth, our self-catering holiday cottages are perfectly situated for all these and more.
Here are just a few of our favourite places, which you can get to quickly and easily by car:
Ingram Valley – 5 minutes
Alnwick Castle and Garden – 15 minutes
Northumbrian coast and beaches – 25 minutes
Cragside (National Trust) – 15 minutes
Chillingham Castle – 25 minutes

“Our first visit to Northumberland and now we wish we’d done it years ago! The cottage is everything we hoped for and more! Roaring fires every night, a very well-equipped kitchen for all our needs and very comfortable beds. The most perfect holiday cottage for families!” – The Burrages.
“Peace + contentment + happiness = HERE! Thank you to the talented team that create this haven!”
“We have been coming to Branton Cottages for over 20 years and this was our first visit to Comby Hills – we were not disappointed! Your new build is excellent. Everything is very tastefully furnished and equipped fully with everything we needed. A very enjoyable week.” – John & Brenda Watson
“We have had the most relaxing, lovely holiday – just exactly what we needed! We have enjoyed the simple pleasures of building castles at Newton-by-the-Sea, throwing stones in the river past Ingram and waving daily at the passengers at Stamford Level Crossing with our train mad little boy! Thank you for having us to stay!” – Jayne, Phil & Tom (4yrs)
“Breamish Valley is definitely worth of 5 stars! We will come back and would recommend to friends in a heartbeat.” – Janice, Paul, Lewis (6) & Alexander (2)
