WTB: Mountain bike reccommendations please

I have about £300 to spend.

Any advice about what to look for in a first mountain bike?

I've been looking at Giant and Trek though not sure which is the
better brand. I've also been told just to get front suspension and
not rear, since it will be crap at this price point. True?

Thanks for any help.
Rob
