We had a 3 night stay with our adult daughters and son-in-law. The barmkin was lovely - very cosy and decorated fitting the history and period of the castle. Booking and check-in was seamless. The location was fabulous with great walks along the river, whilst being close to the charming town of Peebles. We booked a private tour of the castle, which is a must-do if you are staying here. We can only recommend staying here and will be back.

Our group had the pleasure of staying at Neidpath Barmkin for a dear friend’s wedding at the castle, and each of us walked away with our own favorite memories from this special place. It’s rare to find accommodation that speaks so personally to different kinds of guests, but the Barmkin did just that. For one of us, it was all about the quiet comfort. The rustic stone walls, the soft lighting, and the cozy living spaces made it the perfect retreat after the excitement of the wedding events. Curling up with a cup of tea and looking out at the hills became a peaceful ritual. The beds were incredibly comfortable, and everything was clean, warm, and welcoming. Another of us was taken by the rich character and history of the building. Every corner of the Barmkin seemed to have a story. From the old beams and charming windows to the thoughtful blend of antique and modern décor, it was like stepping into a Scottish time capsule with Wi-Fi and a great kitchen. It truly felt like a place where people have gathered for generations, and we were just the latest lucky guests. And for the last in our trio, it was the location and scenery that stole the show. Waking up to views of the River Tweed, taking morning walks through the countryside, and being just a stone’s throw from Neidpath Castle made the whole weekend feel effortlessly magical. The convenience of being close to the wedding while still having a private space to unwind was perfect. Together, we laughed, cooked, relaxed, and reconnected, and Neidpath Barmkin provided the perfect backdrop. Whether you’re a history lover, a nature enthusiast, or just in search of a little calm and beauty, this place delivers it all with quiet grace. We left feeling rested, grateful, and already plotting how to return.

The Barmkin has a wonderful location within the grounds of the castle and a garden overlooking the river - a real sun-trap. There was a generous welcome pack of fruit, bread, milk, tea and coffee and the kitchen was well-equipped. There is a steep path down to the river and it's a pleasant 1km walk into town. We were there for a cycling holiday and there are several spectacular routes on very quiet roads. The Tweed Vallet Trail is traffic-free. I would thoroughly recommend The Barmkin for a place to stay.

We had an absolutely amazing stay at Neidpath Castle for a special family birthday. My husband and I stayed in Queen Marys Chamber in the castle and our children stayed in Neidpath Barmkin cottage. Our stay was perfect from start to finish. We had the whole castle to ourselves and loved exploring from down in the pit dungeon all the way up to the castle ramparts with it's beautiful views along the River Tweed. Sandy was so helpful and made our stay extra special. She arranged an amazing private dining experience for us in the castles beautiful tapestry room in front of a roaring fire. Private chefs Dougie and Christine provided us with an incredible meal made with beautiful local ingredients. A truly memorable meal in. Staying in Queen Mary's Chamber with it's super comfortable four posted bed and extra deep roll top bath and our own private suite with open fire was a very special experience. Our children loved staying in Neidpath Barmkin cottage with it's super comfortable bedrooms and beautiful lounge with open fire. A cottage with a very special atmosphere. Our stay at Neidpath Castle was a truly unique and exceptional experience. A very special weekend that we'll be talking about for a very long time.

Have stayed many times before and once again did not disappoint. Fantastic location for easy access to Peebles and beyond with a lovely cottage to relax in and enjoy the views

A beautiful cottage with everything you could possibly need in an amazing location. The only reason for the comfort medium rating is that we chose to stay despite having no power due to the worst storm for 100 years! - had that not been the case, the comfort rating would be excellent The owners gave us other options but we decided to stay and they were very helpful with candles and logs - it was all part of the adventure!

The location was ideal—nestled in nature and history, yet just a short walk or drive into Peebles. We had a guest with limited mobility, and the place was wonderfully accessible. The rooms were beautiful and cozy, making the stay absolutely perfect.

The Barmkin is an idyllic set up for any wedding guests that you may want on the Neidpath property! Both sets of our parents had their own quarters of the cottage including their own bedrooms and bathrooms. The shared kitchen and living room were spacious and stocked with everything one would need for morning breakfast. The Neidpath crew made sure that dietary needs were adhered to with attention to detail. Outside the cottage you will find the castle at the front and River Tweed behind the cottage. The men got ready in the Barmkin on the morning of our wedding, which made the extra bedroom and bathroom a plus! I can’t recommend this property enough!

A gorgeous cottage that we started coming to when my daughter was a toddler. She’s now 19, and we still love it. In a fantastic location that can’t be beaten, and within walking distance of Peebles it’s perfect. The cottage is beautiful, well equipped and comfortable. We will be back next year - just wish we could stay longer than 5 nights!

We absolutely loved our time at Neidpath Barmkin. A truly unique and memorable experience. Wonderfully comfortable lounge with great open fire. It was so peaceful at night and the bed was so comfortable. Great rainforest shower and bath too. Everything we needed in the kitchen and a outbuilding with washing facilities and perfect for bike storage. Great walks and mountainbiking from the house. A really beautiful location with fantastic views over the Tweed and woodlands. Rachel and team couldn't have been more helpful with booking and queries. Thank you so much!

Amazing. Wonderful. Enchanting. We had a family Christmas gathering and it did not disappoint. There was even a decorated tree waiting for us. The weather outside was actually frightful but we built a fire and loved the time together. They even delivered more firewood on Christmas morning!

This cottage was accommodation for our wedding party, but I would recommend it to anybody looking for a stay in somewhere special. The cottage sleeps 6, with a beautiful interior and a welcoming open fire. With stunning riverside walks on your doorstep and a stones thrown from village pubs and restaurants, it's a must stay for anybody visiting peebles!

Very beautiful inside, loved the view’s across the Tweed to the trees on the hillside. The communication informing us of cottage key’s location etc excellent. The food in the fridge was satisfactory. The layout of the cottage was clean, tidy, not cluttered and sufficient room for guests staying there. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Lovely stay in the Barmkin. It’s very comfortable with a lovely spacious sitting room overlooking the Tweed. Fabulous log fire and roomy kitchen. The two bedrooms are very nice at each end of the cottage, but the bunk room is definitely for children only. Fabulous location and we walked into Peebles very easily along the river and back again. The Team at Neidpath provided us with fresh bread. Biscuits, milk, eggs and tea/coffee/sugar/loo paper/washing up liquid were all provided which was a real bonus!

This was our 3rd stay here and was a welcoming as always . The accommodation is a rustic shabby chic and feels like it gives you a big hug when you walk in . The walks and views are breathtaking and amazing from the top of the castle. Always enjoyed my stay and feel totally recharged on departure.

It’s perfect for what we needed at the wedding. We had somewhere for the older guests to relax and for the younger kids to sleep without losing anyone for hours at a time. As a place to stay its brilliant and can’t be beaten.

10.0 / 10.0

We loved the Barmkin - plenty of room for all of us (only downside was one room is bunk beds which would be great for kids but not adults or babies!) Good kitchen, plenty of crockery for visiting eaters, fabulous living room with plenty of wood for the fire. We really enjoyed it and hope to come back. Peebles is great and the walks along the river, especially in autumn, were just lovely.
