The Briers is a beautiful property hosted by Darren, a precious man. He asked after our trip, have recommendations based on what we liked, suggested places that he and his family have enjoyed and was a delight to talk to. The room is spacious, the bathroom is out of a magazine, the view is beautiful and the location ideal. It feels like being in a movie set. We will definitely stay here again when we're in the area.

Highly recommend this hotel. Darren was a brilliant and friendly host without being intrusive, which is his style. Great continental breakfasts, lovely spacious room and very clean facilities. Hotel is situated in a lovely country area with easy access to the town. Lovely area to stay with plenty of places to visit. We spent 4 nights of bliss.

Close to Tollymore Nice area, room was decent size but cobwebs in the corners of the room, water stains on ceiling. We booked due to location to Tollymore forest, very close and not too far away from downtown Newcastle which was nice. Bathroom good size but water from shower went all over the floor. Really not much for breakfast options other than cereal, some pastries and fruit.

The staff are just so friendly and the place is lovely. Its either a 5-10 min drive into Newcastle or a nice 30min walk. Really good for somewhere to decompress for a few days.

Perfect location for a break in the Mournes. We had a lovely stay at this beautiful place. We booked a night away as we have recently got married, and my husband is recovering from a serious illness. We just needed some "downtime" as we also have a daughter with disabilities, and this was the perfect spot. We have actually booked the superior room for a night next month,as I have felt so refreshed today. The continental breakfast was lovely. My husband is more of a cooked breakfast fan,but I was delighted to find several gluten free options, including bread, porridge and cereal, and also dairy alternatives. I think this is the first place we have stayed that has actually provided gluten and lactose free options. The only drawback was a bit of noise from another guest's 2 large dogs through the night. I love that the Briers is pet friendly, and have recommended it to both my son and daughter who are always looking for pet friendly places to stay. The noise didn't bother me as we have dogs ourselves,but my husband is a bit noise sensitive due to illness. Not a fault of the Briers at all, just very excited dogs on holiday. We are looking forward to going back often. We had beautiful views of the stunning Mourne mountains from our room as an added bonus.

Loved our stay at this quiet and peaceful cottage located just outside of town. It is a simple space and decor but very clean and comfortable, including a soft bed. Breakfast had several options and was tasty. Check in and out was easy. Would highly recommend.
