Neidpath Castle
Mediaeval Tower with impressive setting, but not exciting inside. Walkable from Peebles
perched high on a rocky bluff overlooking the Tweed. The medieval Tower House enjoys an impressive setting, but there's little to see inside which would justify the entrance fee.
The castle can be reached by following the trail along the River Tweed from Hay Lodge Park in town.
Opening Times
Easter-late May holiday daily 1600-1900, late June-early Sep 1100-1800. £3, £2.50 concession.
