Neidpath Castle sits in a commanding position above the River Tweed. It is an unspoilt 14th century Keep, last modernised in the 1600s. Equipped with a dungeon, well, long-drops and fireplaces large enough to roast an ox, there are also a set of exquisite 20th century batiks, telling the story of Mary Queen of Scots, who stayed at the castle.

The perfect surprise destination for visitors to the Borders, Neidpath Castle is open exclusively for private groups, offering a unique insight into castle architecture and local lore since the 14th century . We offer tours, teas by a roaring fire or a medieval banquet and ceilidh all tailored for you. The castle is open for tours and venues all year, by appointment.

Neidpath Castle is just a few miles from Peebles, a pretty market town with a wide range of amenities, including shops offering local produce. There are also several pubs and restaurants to choose from.
