Unfortunately, despite the decent ratings i'm giving them overall, there was a wedding on the night we stayed. This of course is a wondaful thing and we wish the happy couple the best. However we went to Briars to have a quiet night in the country, and if they had told us that our room would be directly above the wedding, in a very old, non-sound proofed room, then obviously we wouldn't have booked it. The noise was so loud that we could not even hear the TV. Better communication and honesty required!!

Briars Country Lodge was a good choice for us we were going to a concert at Centennial Vineyards and the bus picks up from Briars. The lodge was competitively priced and whilst the room was clean and bed comfortable and had a pleasant view to the large pond, green lawn and trees thought the bathroom needed a makeover, water pressure was not great and shower head was basic, a few chips in the bath. The buffet breakfast was good, not the choices you get at a high end hotel but for $22 great value.

Stayed in the executive suite, $710 for two nights. As soon as you opened the front door you were hit with a really bad moldy smell. Tried to open the windows but they all had been painted shut so unable to open them. I went to reception and was told no maintenance people were available, so it was like it or lump it as all the other rooms were booked. The exhaust fan in the toilet worked when it felt like it. The one in the main bathroom did very little to take any steam out and you could not open the windows in either bathroom.
The internet was very good and easy to connect to.
It is next to Briars Country Inn, and this was a fabulous place to eat, great food but noisy unless you sat in one of the smaller rooms behind the bar.

I booked this hotel on a busy weekend at the last minute, and the grounds were beautiful, the restaurant / bar was great and the room was a decent size. But the room was at least 20 years old and I don't think represented great value for money, especially considering for the same price you could get a 5-star room in the Sydney CBD.

Lovely property

The property is lovely and very beautiful to wake in the morning and look out over the lawn down to the lake. Our stay was very enjoyable. Very peaceful.
Only one comment relating to the little area outside our room with chairs and table. It looked as though it had not been cleaned or dusted for a long time, lots of cobwebs and dust. Easy to remedy!
Would definitely recommend.

The water from the tap had a very bad taste and when we drank 2 bottles of wateras a result of the poor tap water ,we were charged $7. Other jotels that charge over $200 a night provide complimentary water. The room was very outdated, the bath was very worn and needed replacing. Behind the bed had not been cleaned for months and was dusty/dirty. Overall bad value for the price. The outlook over the water and the spaciousness of the room was great

Lovely renovated motel style rooms all facing a large pond / lake. In room amenities are great, large bar fridge and microwave. Very quiet at night and secure parking.

I love it and have stayed quite a few times but this time there was black gunk around the bathroom basin taps and the bathroom fan which came on with the light ie. you could not have one without the other, made a very loud noise which was very disturbing. without the light/fan switched on you could not see in the bathroom. Altogether unsatisfactory!

A little quirky with an inspired architectural split level room. A soul pleasing outlook over the small lake with water feature, ducks, water hens and on this visit Crimson Rosella parrots feeding close by on the grass seed.

Adjacent to the Burning Stump Hotel/Restaurant we had a great evening meal. The selection of beer and wines was better than many hotel bistros. The staff were polite, relaxed and efficient. One of the best meals we've had out this year.

The rooms were very average and the cleaning staff definitely need to try harder.

The property was in a nice quiet location.
Room was cosy. The facilities in the room were good - toaster, kettle and microwave.
We had 4 in our room. 2 slept in the king bed and the other 2 had the sofa bed.
The sofa beds are appalling - thin mattress, springs dig into you. We changed rooms the 2nd night and it was only slightly better.
I got the impression that the sofa bed was deemed okay for children.... which is not acceptable. I paid additional for the bedding and it should be up to a standard that anyone can sleep on.
