Tucked away on Brownley Lane in Brandon, Ashtree Hideaway is a beautifully self-built retreat designed for two. Renovated to an exceptionally high standard, this stylish one-bedroom hideaway is perfect for couples seeking a romantic break, with the added bonus of being dog friendly. Primarily designed as a retreat for two, it also offers a sofa bed in the living room suitable for up to two additional guests or two children if needed. Inside, the property offers a bright open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge space with a Smart TV and patio doors leading out to the private garden area. Outside, there is a large patio with a BBQ and a hot tub for up to five guests, ideal for relaxing after a day of exploring. The garden is fenced, although it is worth noting there is open side access leading to the property, so it is not fully enclosed. The elegant bedroom features a super-king-size bed and Smart TV, while a mirrored wardrobe cleverly hides a secret sliding door into the en-suite, where you’ll find a double-ended bath and a spacious cubicle shower.

Ashtree Hideaway is well placed for discovering the best of County Durham. Brandon itself has handy local places to eat and drink, including The Brawn’s Den and The Pub & Kitchen Brandon Village, both popular options for an easy meal out close to home. For wider choice, Durham City is nearby, where you can enjoy everything from cosy pubs and cocktail bars to independent cafés and well-known restaurants.
For days by the sea, the Durham Heritage Coast makes a fantastic trip out. This striking stretch of coastline is known for its dramatic cliffs, wildlife, wildflowers and scenic walking routes, and forms part of the King Charles III England Coast Path. Seaham Beach is one of the nearest and most popular spots, with its dog-friendly shoreline, rock pools and attractive promenade, while the wider Seaham area is full of coastal views and seaside charm.

Walkers will also be spoiled for choice, whether you prefer gentle local rambles, coastal paths or bigger adventures into the Durham countryside. County Durham is celebrated for its beautiful landscape, rich heritage and guided walking opportunities, making it ideal for guests who love the outdoors. A stay here also puts you within easy reach of Durham’s historic attractions, beautiful countryside and memorable day trips, giving you the best of both town and coast.
Whether you’re planning lazy mornings in the hot tub, evenings dining under the stars, beach days with the dog, or scenic walks followed by a long soak in the bath, Ashtree Hideaway is a luxurious base for a relaxing couple’s escape.
