Absolutely fabulous, was blown away by how good The Briers was. Vastly exceeded my expectations and will look to always stay there in future when in Newcastle to play golf at Royal County Down. Luxurious bedrooms, bedding, etc and such a peaceful setting. Wish I’d been staying longer.

Darren is a fabulous host. Incredibly friendly, outgoing and informative. His property is beautiful he he does an amazing job of making you feel at home. He provided us with recommendations to a fabulous restaurant and recommended that we make time to stroll the waterfront, which we did and were so happy we did! We already have plans to stay at The Briers Country house again.

Very relaxing property with privacy yet very short drive to all the amenities of downtown Newcastle. The owner and host Darren is fantastic. He made certain I had everything needed to enjoy my stay, even provided me with a universal adapter to charge my phone. The Briers exceeded my expectations to the point where I extended my stay and I will definitely be back as a future guest.

Lovely place with the friendliest people. I drove up from from Limerick to meet old friends from America on a golf tour. I couldn’t pay Slieve Donald price for the night but I was minutes away at The Briers. Very peaceful. Great people running this place.

We had an excellent 2 night stay at The Briers. Diane was extremely helpful and friendly, she upgraded our room without asking because there was a better room available. The room was really clean and modern with tea/coffee making facilities with a couple of chocolate biscuits too. There was also a communal area for teas, coffees and biscuits that we didn’t use but was there if we wanted to. The beds were comfortable, the bathroom had toiletries available and the room had a patio door that you could leave the building from and return to so that was helpful as we didn’t have to go through the main building. The breakfast facilities were excellent. You can select from a hot menu with good choices and then there is a variety of cereals, yogurts, fresh fruits, cereal bars and fruit juices. We ordered tea and coffee and got a lovely big teapot of tea and a full cafetière of coffee. Would highly recommend this place if you want to spend some time in Newcastle. We will hopefully be back as soon as we can.

Lovely hotel with great hosts. Anne was very attentive and helped find us a welcoming restaurant for our first evening meal in Newcastle which was a short drive away. Rooms were a bit tired but the hosts, who have only been there for a month, have great plans to make changes so we’d have no hesitation in going back. Very large garden and good parking space. A cooked Ulster breakfast was one of the best we’ve had with a good range of fruit, cereals and yogurt. Special attention was given to our requirements for a gluten free breakfast. We had nice views of the Mountains of Mourne (when it wasn’t cloudy) as the location is perfect to get to the coast and inland. We were visiting a relative in Newry and could get there in 30 minutes but preferred the coastal route or across the mountains. All in all a great base for a holiday in a very scenic area of Northern Ireland. Thank you for making our visit memorable.
