Our third stay at The Briars where a friendly welcome awaits. (It feels home from home) David & Amanda are so accommodating to there guests individual needs & requirements & always with a smile. The rooms are spotless and breakfast is superb. The Briars seems to attract only friendly people so a chat in the dining room or in the bar can be fun or one can sit in the lounge or the patio area if you need solitude. We love the place & area & will be back soon. Karen & Melv

We spent 3 days at the The Briars last week and really enjoyed ourselves. Dave and Amanda are very obliging and helpful with local info. They work on the basis of ' MI CASA ES SU CASA '. The rooms were clean , the bed was comfortable and breakfast catered for everyone's taste. We wish them well for the future they deserve it.
