The host was super friendly very welcoming, bed was comfy, shower was great and it was a bonus to open the blinds and see some farm animals in the field next to it!
Wouldn’t fault the property for it however we struggled to get back to it from castlewellen as no taxis were available so we walked for an hour.

The host Darren checked us in at reception .He was very pleasant,full of local knowledge .Arranged a taxi to and from our evening entertainment .He made a point while we were having breakfast to approach us and as if we had an enjoyable evening and ask if we got our return taxi back to the accommodation .The breakfast room is definitely well set up .A self-service continental breakfast,with all the mod cons to assist your every need .Loved this ! There is plenty of parking room ,lovely gardens to sit out and enjoy the peace and quiet of the countryside .I would highly recommend, The Briers and I certainly will be returning again in the spring for a longer stay .I rate them 10 out of 10 .Well done to Darren and his team .đź‘Ź

The property was clean and comfortable. Our room had a large bathroom and felt like a home rather than a soulless hotel room. The grounds were large and surrounded by farms of sheep and horses. They had a lovely snug with self serve drinks for just €3 where we could relax. It was a short drive into town/to the beach, and the Tullamore Forest is right next door, which was a lovely walk with the dog. Best of all our puppy was welcome in all areas of the hotel and grounds, even in the breakfast room.
Everything was great. We didn’t see much of the staff at all but everywhere had very clear self service instructions, and phone numbers were visible everywhere should we need assistance.

Beautiful house in quiet, picturesque setting. The hosts were very welcoming. Only a few minutes drive from town. Our room was tastefully decorated. Lovely bathroom with large shower. But the best thing was the little extra's, that I've only seen in top rated hotels...Water, toothbrushes, soap, shampoo & conditioner...a sleep pack containing eye mask & ear buds and a grooming kit containing nail file, cotton pads & ear buds. You wouldn't normally get these in a b&b. There was a fridge in reception containing additional water if you needed it for your room. Breakfast was help yourself continental style from 7-11am.. Fridge was stocked with various milk options, juices, cheese, meats & yogurts. There was a selection of cereals & breads, including gluten free & dairy free option. Fresh fruit, pancakes & pain au chocolate. There was also a great little egg boiling machine, various coffee & tea options. Perfect options for everyone

We were very pleasantly surprised to find the lovely country home accommodation that is The Briers. It is a beautifully enlarged farmhouse down a short lane off Middle Tollymore Road in the foothills of the Mourne Mountains. Our bedroom was beautifully decorated and had a most comfortable bed. The scrupulously clean en-suite was most acceptable to my other half as it had a “telephone” type shower device (meant that she didn’t get her hair drenched when showering). The single mixer tap in the sink also means that folks of continental origin don’t get confused by having one tap for cold water while the other is boiling hot! Breakfast was a self-service continental buffet type. There was as much on offer as anyone could ask for and we enjoyed the view of the garden from our table. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying at the Briers on another occasion.
