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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Our stay was everything we hoped it would be!

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.

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 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!

Wonderful

We enjoyed our stay immensely! It was so nice to be able to wander around the castle at our own pace exploring. Katarina who checked us in, gave us a very informative history of the castle and made sure we were all settled in. We only wish we had been able to partake in the dinner being made by a private chef but he was on holiday, maybe next time!

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 Stay to Remember

We were fortunate enough to get married at Neidpath, and even luckier to spend two nights in its private suite. There's truly nothing like having an entire castle to yourselves. The experience was magical, and the suite was beyond stunning—equipped with everything we could have imagined and more. We’re already dreaming of the day we return for an anniversary.

Wonderful to be back at Neidpath

We stayed at Neidpath for our wedding anniversary and it was so lovely to be back. We had a lot of issues during our journey which meant we arrived much later than planned and Katarina was very understanding. We would wholeheartedly recommend staying at Neidpath for a unique experience - you have the castle to yourselves with the most beautiful surroundings. We hope to be back again!

Wonderful Historic Place to Stay with THE most Comfortable Bed!

This was a wonderful stay, in a unique piece of history. It was clean, and the food left for breakfast was delicious. The bed... oh the bed... it was one of the most comfortable beds I have slept in. Loved my night there.

Unforgettable

Like most we have a budget when traveling. Yet still, I like the occasional splurge on really good accommodation. So when planning our trip to Scotland I did look at the high end hotels in Edinburgh and they were nice. But then I found Neidpath. An authentic (not Disney) castle beautifully decorated, we could have all to ourselves. Such a unique experience. I doubt you’ll find anywhere else. A lovely self catered breakfast provided for the next morning and the lovely neighbouring town of Peebles to explore as well. If you have any interest at all in history, you need to book this now.

Such an amazing place to stay

I stayed for two nights, before and the night of my wedding. Everything was spotless and tidy! It’s such a pretty place and made even better by the fact there’s a gorgeous view no matter where you are in the castle. Couldn’t fault Neidpath in any way.

A real adventure

An unforgettable experience, to have a whole castle for yourself. We felt like children exploring the castle. The breakfast that was in store for us the next morning was absolutely lovely: Berries, fruit, muesli, yoghurt, salmon, avocado, orange juice, a wonderful bread... Everything we would have wished for!
