Extraordinary

Not only one of the most wonderful stays in Scotland but one of the most wonderful experiences of our lives! How often do you get to stay AT a castle? One that is so authentic, with so much history and run by staff that is absolutely second to none. We can’t say enough good things about this place, the comfort, the location. It’s the embodiment of this beautiful country and these incredible people. Thank you so much Sandy. We love you.

Historic experience

Our stay was amazing. The castle and outdoor setting were so beautiful. Having the experience to be on our own in this incredible place was most memorable and truly was our best accommodation on our whole trip! (Actually for all our travels).We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the castle and our rooms were so cozy and comfortable. Our thanks go to the staff for a smooth transaction and a welcoming overview.. We especially enjoyed our delectable meal. What a dining experience! Thank you Gemma!

1st Anniversary stay

We were celebrating 1 year on from our wedding at Neidpath. Katarina had the chamber lovely and cosy for our arrival and fire ready to go, all we had to do was strike a match. We had a lovely little continental breakfast waiting for us with fresh bread, salmon, soft cheese and more. Staying in the castle and having exclusive access to the history of it's walls is a one of a kind experience. We feel for lucky to have a connection to Neidpath and it will forever be our happy place. Thank you for making our stay so special and memorable. Rea & Rikki Xo

Romantic accommodation

We stayed in the Queen Mary Chambers at Neidpath castle for our wedding. The accommodation was the perfect setting for our pre and post wedding night. The room was clean and had all the amenities we needed. It is such a romantic and beautiful setting and the bed was so comfortable. We would highly recommend staying here.

An outstanding experience

As a couple we spent two days at Neidworth Castle for the occasion of a birthday celebration. So this is nothing you do in every day life and it is an unparalled experience. The castle itself is stunning, offering plenty of space and numerous chambers to explore. It is not fancy in the sense of a five star hotel, it looks and feels used, but this is so so charming. The staircase and the floorboards look like hundreds of feet had been trodding them, the antique furniture fits the large chambers and the fire crackles nicely in the fire place when sitting on the couch and reading one of the books about the castle`s history. It`s a huge building with a lot of history and you can enjoy it and have it all for yourself. We slept well in the large bed, prepared food in the large kitchen (wearing a warm hat against the cold) and just kept exploring the place using the spiral staircases. There is a bathtub with hot water, a roof with a view - as mentioned before, absolutely outstanding. We enjoyed it a lot and can wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Neidworth Castle!

Fun and luxury at the castle

We shared a magical night exploring and feeling pampered in our castle for the night. Host walked us through beautifully and left us to find the fun rooms and special touches throughout the castle. We had all the modern conveniences in a setting kept true to the original feel of the castle. We really felt like royalty. Food was wonderful too. Thank you Katrina for setting things up for us. I just wish I could keep this jewel a secret so we could book it again!

An amazing, unforgettable experience

My husband and I had such a wonderful stay. Katarina was so very lovely and helpful. The castle itself is incredible. I could have spent all day just exploring inside. A really brilliant end to my last night in Scotland and something I’ll remember for the rest of my life. Thankyou so much again.

A magical and memorable stay

We took the bus from Edinburgh on a wet and dreary afternoon. When we arrived into Peebles and got to Neidpath, the sun was out without a cloud in the sky. I think that says more about how special our stay was than the weather in Scotland.

Our stay was everything we hoped it would be! The castle and grounds are well cared for and the hosts were great to visit with to learn about the history and how the castle is used today. This was a core memory portion of our time in Scotland.

A special unique experience

We spend one night at Neidpath Castle and had, what felt like an authentic experience in a Scottish castle. It’s truly special to know that we enjoyed an evening by the fire that people did the same 600 years ago. Such a treat roaming around the castle and taking a walk by the river. We opted for the dinner hamper, which involved some preparation by us but the meal was really great. Brought our own wine and Prosecco. The items provided for breakfast were excellent. Croissants, fresh bread, berries and yogurt, amazing smoked salmon, juice, coffee and tea made for a great breakfast. Thank you for an amazing experience.

Magnificent Castle.

Wonderful castle. The Queen's Chamber, Lounge Area and Kitchen had everything we could possibly want or need. The lady welcomed us with much knowledge of the history which we loved and were in awe of. The location and surrounds were very pretty and peaceful. A tranquil oasis, the highlight of our Scottish Holiday.

A very memorable stay at Neidpath

We stayed in the Barmkin adjacent to the castle and thoroughly enjoyed every minute. Upon arrival there was a power outage however this was swiftly dealt with by Scottish Power who installed a generator which ran faultlessly through the night until mains power was restored. Sandy and Katarina were both very helpful and made us welcome with nothing being too much trouble. We loved our stay at Neidpath and hope to return at some point soon.

Nighy away

We had a lovely romantic stay at Neidpath Castle. The staff at Neidpath Castle couldn’t have done enough for us, Very comfortable bed & we slept quite well. The ghost didn’t bother us. We’ve stayed at castle before so I guess the ghost remembered us.

A perfect night stay

We absolutely loved our night in Queen Mary’s Chamber, so comfortable sitting in the lounge with the fire roaring. Such a privilege to be able to also explore all of the inside of this wonderful castle. Also really enjoyed exploring the outside at night with the castle all light up.

A magical stay for our wedding

Absolutely adored staying here - we were a little worried at first with it being so old that we might have to make some accommodations but it was really exceptionally comfortable, cosy and warm. Loved every minute and it made our wedding morning extra special to wake up and sit by the fire in the sitting room. We will be back!
