We have several artisan makers in the town, including Discovery Glass where Irene makes jewellery and other pieces to order, Winnie Magee who makes designer linen rainwear and The Dog House creative gallery where Pamela makes her own range of jewellery. We have a lovely selection of different walks: Scrabo Country Park park and woodland, Castle Espie bird sanctuary, Nendrum monastic site and the town's Titanic Trail (the ill-fated ship's designer, who went down with the ship leaving behind his young wife and child, came from a prominent Comber family). Buses run regularly to Belfast City centre though outside peak hours the frequency isn't high. We are uniquely located on the outskirts of Belfast, 20 minutes by car from the city centre, Titanic Belfast, Belfast City Airport and more. But also 20 minutes from Mount Stewart (one of the National Trust's key properties), Lisburn and Bangor. With the whole of Strangford Lough and the Mourne Mountains within an hour and the Giants Causeway, Derry, Fermanagh and the beautiful Glens of Antrim all accessible in well under 2 hours, we are a good place to have as a touring base. Comber has it's own Farmers Market every 1st Thursday in the month with lots of local goodies. We have access to a number of activities. From golf to sailing, fishing to kayaking, cycling to Motorsport and flying (helicopters and small aircraft) it's all on our doorstep! And if this exhausts you there is some great shopping in the Belfast, Lisburn and Bangor areas! We also have 2 major Outlet Villages within 3/4 of an hour if you are looking for good bargains! There are several local multi screen cinemas and there are always live shows in Belfast with many international names. There is a lively nightlife culture especially at the weekends in Belfast and Dublin is an easy 2 hour drive away.
