About this property

Explore an entire castle whilst staying in historical splendour.

Mary Queen of Scot's chamber at Neidpath Castle is perhaps the most romantic place to stay in the Scottish Borders. Explore privately the whole castle and then retire to enjoy your suite rooms. The antique four poster bed, deep roll top bath and open fire evoke earlier times, but are truly comfortable and luxurious. An elegant table is set for breakfast. Peebles is 10 minutes walk away, with a host of shops and restaurants, as well as a museum and award winning chocolatier.
The space
There is a small kitchenette with fridge, kettle and delicious provisions for a continental breakfast. Dinner can be served by prior arrangement.
Guest access
Guests can explore the whole castle at their leisure. There is only the one bedroom suite.
Other things to note
The chamber is on the 2nd floor of the castle, with no lift access.
Guests can expect to find free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a kitchen, a fireplace, and a balcony.

Magical night in a castle!

My best friend and I got to experience what relatively few Americans will ever experience - sleeping in a real castle! What an experience! The grounds were beautiful, overlooking a flowing river and a gorgeous wooded area. The walk to the quaint town of Peebles was fabulous. Indeed, I can think of NOTHING of this one night experience for us that was amiss. We had the whole castle to ourselves. The accommodations were more than comfortable. In the room, we had a plethora of snacks and breakfast foods available for us before we checked out - strawberries, blueberries, yogurt, specialty bread, salmon, cream cheese, coffees, teas, jams... and chocolates on our bedside tables! The castle is reportedly haunted. On our way back into Edinburgh we had a few people ask if we saw the ghost who roams the castle, but unfortunately we did not. My only regret is that we did not have the castle chef prepare dinner - At 90 gbp per person, it was a bit pricey for us to consider. Anyway - 10/10! If I ever find myself back in Scotland, Neidpath Castle will be seeing me again!

Wonderful experience

The area and property is so beautiful, it is like being in a fairytale. Although it is an historical property it was clean and had everything we required. It was the highlight of our trip to the UK

Fantastic

Best decision ever. Having the whole castle to ourselves was amazing. So many fascinating rooms to explore. Views from the top were phenomenal. The 20 minute walk along the river into Peebles for dinner was so pretty. Katarina, who greeted us, gave a great and informative tour. And left us a lovely breakfast for the morning. The suite was cozy and comfortable. Loved being able to have a fire. Would highly recommend.
