Briardale Bed & Breakfast

Briardale B&B is a member of Hosted Accommodation Australia and Accommodation Association of Australia.

Albury, situated on the New South Wales side of the Murray River which is the border of Victoria and New South Wales, is blessed with a unique climate - we have four very distinct seasons, with summer being dry and hot, whilst being close to some of the best snow resorts in Australia, winter can be very chilly, with temperatures being below zero for some of the day with heavy frosts - a fine reason for staying indoors by the fire, or enjoying that brisk walk along the bicycle/walking track by the creek. Autumn is our favourite season, with cooler days and nights, adding delightful colour changes to the trees and shrubs. On the arrival of Spring our tranquil and secluded garden unfolds to a wonderful array of colour and fragrances. As our guest, you have your own entry and secure car parking - electronic controlled entry and exit ensures your privacy and security.

Breakfast is served in the beautifully furnished Dining Room which has lovely views to the garden through the bay window. It is furnished with antiques, quality tableware and is airconditioned. Enjoy a hearty, full cooked breakfast to start the day or if you prefer, a substantial continental offering. Briardale has three delightfully appointed bedrooms, all above stairs on the first floor. Each feature a private bathroom ( ensuite ), Queensize brass bed with deluxe mattress, electric blankets, comfy Doonas and fine quality manchester, furnished with beautiful antique dressing table, individual airconditioning units, LCD television, convenient USB ports and wardrobe. All suites are spacious and very quiet, having views over the old country style garden established by Mabel & Ned Griffiths ( the second owners of Briardale) in 1948. Each ensuite has a large shower, heated towel rail and ceiling heat lamps. Superior bathroom amenities are provided for your use and comfort. The Heathwood Room features a two-person corner spa for that well deserved relaxing evening.
