We had a great stay in this comfortable hotel. The bedrooms were large and comfortable. The garden was nice and guests were allowed access to it. Rita was especially helpful to us and enabled us to change rooms to a downstairs bedroom as my wife is disabled.

The Briers is a lovely Country House surrounded with beautiful views just outside of Newcastle. We stayed in room 8 which had a very comfortable bed, great shower and large TV. The continental breakfast was very good and the host Rita, was very friendly and extremely helpful. We will definitely be back! Thank you.

I had the most amazing stay here. Marty greeted me at the reception and showed my my room that had coffee/tea amenities; a big hot tub and TV, large clean bathroom, super comfortable bed and amazing views. They are located just outside of Newcastle; the manager will go as far as providing everyone a lift down to town in a bus if they want to, but the place has a large bar, lounge/snug, stunning grounds and loads of comfortable suntrap seats to relax in so no need to leave! Marty even brought me a chippy from town. Breakfast was also delicious. Couldn’t possibly recommend this place any more, can’t wait to go back.

Place was beautiful but breakfast was a let down. Would need a car to go anyway as it is out of the way.

Being silly hack, travel can sometimes be very disappointing and dangerous for me. I was very impressed with a breakfast that was available. Lots of healthy gluten-free options that actually taste good fresh fruit, oats, boiled eggs, fresh juice. This location is very close to Tollymore Forest Park. I chose to walk the 700 m to the gate and along the way I passed a sheep farm. There were baby lambs all over the place and the owner invited me to go pet them. It was a wonderful experience and I would definitely go back there again and stay longer.
