Neidpath Castle


NB Neidpath Castle is currently not open to the public.

An authentic 14th century castle converted to a tower house (17th century), the erstwhile home of Fraser, Hay and Douglas families, set in a wooded gorge of the River Tweed.

This romantic medieval castle with 11 foot thick walls, contains a pit prison, a draw well and Queen Mary's room. The Great Hall has stunningly beautiful Batiks depicting the 'Life of Mary, Queen of Scots'.

Fine views are obtained from the parapets and the grounds provide a scenic picnic area.
