Quiet and pictureesque location, good breakfast. A most enjoyable stay. More

Myself and my partner have just come back from a weekend at the Briers and the first thing we had to do was write a review. This place is fabulous.

Really enjoyed my short stay in The Briers just outside Newcastle County Down. Service excellent, room, really nice, location, out of this world. Wonderful views over Mourne Country. Loved it. Thanks you Susan. More

Susan, our warm and friendly hostess looked after our needs in a relaxed and efficient "No bother" way. The inn is spotless, comfortable and homey, surrounded by gardens.

Lovely entrance, swift check in, but sadly, for us, thats where it started to go wrong. We were shown to our room by Susan, who was very nice and gave us advice on where to... More
