We loved our Stay at Sweet Briar. The house was just perfect. The beds were amazingly comfy and everything just felt a real home from home. We loved our homemade scones with Jam and cream on arrival and the dogs enjoyed their time there too. Linda was fantastic and was lovely to meet. Thanks again we hope to be back soon!

Sweetbriar was a lovely family home for the week in Newquay . Home from home with everything available that you could think of .It gave us a good central base to explorer the surrounding countryside. Lin was the perfect host and made us feel very welcome , especially the homemade scones , jam and cream .I would certainly recommend this accommodation and hopefully we will get to visit again .
