Fabulous stay
Stayed here for one night after climbing Slieve Donard, great location, double room great size and the breakfast was gorgeous, couldnt hear any nouse from other rooms. Maureen and all her staff are extremely friendly, would def go back, picture is view from our bedroom window
The comfiest beds in the country!
We were here for a girl's weekend in September! The rooms were lovely and the gardens and scenery were stunning with beautiful views of the mourne mountains. I was informed the property is pet friendly (one dog per room) I noticed some sheep in the field next to the property however so I would be extra vigilant with your dog and not to let it stray off lead :) The beds......I seriously cannot emphasise enough about how comfortable they are! In fact im going to order one for my own home lol. The bathroom was lovely and modern with plenty of storage space for your clothes. The Briers isn't too far from the town, about a five minute drive which is handy enough. Tollymore Forest Park is also just a little down the road, personally speaking I think Briers is the perfect location. We finished off our stay with a beautifully cooked breakfast and coffee for our journey home. Thank you so much for our stay! it was lovely :)
Misleading
Our "deluxe room" had no window,but instead a patio door.Delighted,we drew back the curtains,which shockingly enabled coming & going guests to look directly into our room which they did!! No voil/curtain for our privacy. no bedside locker and tea cup in my de luxe room sat on the floor.I feel the journey is in fact more than 1.3 miles.The waiting staff were friendly and we enjoyed a hearty breakfast. Surpringsly no handwash in the bathroom.Being close to the beautiful Mournes shouldn't be a licence for these shortfalls.
Fantastic stay
Friendly welcome from aproprietor and staff. The Briers Is a charming House located close to the Mourne Mountains. Our room was spacious bright clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. Super breakfast with plenty of choice. Would highly recommend The Briers Country House.
