Description
Description
The Laigh Hall with vaulted ceiling seats up to 80 guests for a civil wedding ceremony. Religious and humanist ceremonies can also take place.
The Laigh Hall can be set for a seated meal for approximately 80 people and is a great space for having a ceilidh.
Upstairs is the Great Hall, which can be set for a seated meal for approximately 60 people. It is also the perfect place for a buffet, or a quieter space for guests, whilst having dancing downstairs. The extraordinary Batiks, tell the story of Mary Queen of Scots, and infuse the Hall with a colourful sense of drama and history.
The Guard Room is an atmospheric bar or place to sit, with it's roaring fire and 'long drop'. The Dungeon has been used as a cinema, and Queen Mary's Room is a charming space to prepare in, and to stay for a blissful wedding night. On the top floor you can have a drinks reception or night club, for those intrepid guests who like exploring.
For larger weddings, a marquee can be sited in the grounds.
A booking at Neidpath Castle is for the venue only, although our team are on hand to help organise your day if you should wish.

- JJaymie and Karl15/10/2025Our wedding dayOur wedding dayWe came across Neidpath castle when looking online for a venue to get married in Scotland. We fell in love with the rustic glamour and booked before we’d even seen it in the flesh. The list of local recommended suppliers helped us make easy decisions. It was everything we hoped and more despite there being a yellow weather warning on our wedding day the team there were fantastic and the day ran seamlessly due to their experience and professionalism. We have nothing but praise for the venue and the team, especially Rachel who was lovely and helped us no end.

- TTim and Lindsey02/10/2025The PERFECT day!The PERFECT day!My husband (so excited to say that) can honestly say we had the PERFECT wedding at Neidpath! We eloped at the castle and were able to fully enjoy every aspect of the wedding thanks to all the careful planning and preparations made by the one and only Sandy! She helped make a day that was just for the two of us truly feel that way. She had everything ready and cleaned (and even prepped the fireplaces!) for us to use once we got in. The flowers throughout the castle were the perfect touch matching perfectly to the flowers by Rachel from the Flower Bee. She even helped carry my train down the trails to help us and our photographer, Natalie Martin, capture the perfect shots. We will definitely be back to celebrate an anniversary as soon as we can!

- JJohn & Nichole12/08/2025Dream come true wedding at Neidpath CastleDream come true wedding at Neidpath CastleMy husband and I were married at Neidpath Castle this past April, and it truly was the wedding of our dreams. From start to finish, the experience exceeded every expectation we had. I actually stumbled upon the castle online by pure chance, yet something about it immediately drew me in. We reached out to Ian and arranged a virtual tour—since we live in the US and were planning our wedding in Scotland without having visited beforehand—and it was fantastic. After that, we set our date, and everything fell seamlessly into place. Rachel, who worked with us on the details of our day, was an absolute joy from the very beginning. She is genuinely one of the sweetest, most thoughtful people I’ve ever met, and she went above and beyond to ensure every detail reflected what we had envisioned. Her warmth, professionalism, and dedication made the planning process not only easy but truly enjoyable. Everyone we spoke to about the castle kept telling us that no photo or virtual tour could ever do the castle justice—and the moment we stood before its doors, we knew they were right. Neidpath Castle is breathtaking. The history, the architecture, and the atmosphere are simply unforgettable. Our family stayed in the nearby cottage, which was cozy, well-equipped, and perfectly situated just steps from the castle—a wonderful experience for them as well. When our wedding day arrived, it was everything I had ever hoped for and more. The entire team at Neidpath made sure every detail was handled, allowing us to simply be present, soak in the joy, and focus on what the day meant to us. We were able to relax completely and celebrate without a single worry. We are endlessly grateful for the extraordinary memories we made and for the kindness and care shown to us by everyone at Neidpath Castle. It was the perfect start to this new chapter of our lives, and we can’t wait to return—looking forward to celebrating an anniversary in the very place where it all began. To everyone at Neidpath: thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for making our wedding day everything we had ever dreamed of—and so much more!My husband and I were married at Neidpath Castle this past April, and it truly was the wedding of our dreams.

- KKelly and Kelsey28/07/2025A Wedding Weekend Straight Out of a FairytaleA Wedding Weekend Straight Out of a FairytaleOur wedding weekend at Neidpath Castle was nothing short of magical. Staying in Queen Mary’s Chamber was a dream. It felt like we were transported back in time, surrounded by centuries of history, yet wrapped in total comfort and luxury. We blindly booked this venue in hopes that it would be exactly what we wanted. And let me tell you, it surpassed our wildest dreams. The historic details of the room were beyond captivating. From the ancient stone walls and original wooden beams to the antique furnishings, every inch of the chamber told a story. The stone fireplace was absolutely beautiful and made our evenings feel cozy, romantic, and unforgettable. Sitting by the fire in such a historic space felt surreal, like sharing a moment with the past. We found ourselves sitting in awe taking in every moment of this extraordinary experience. Everything was impeccably clean, thoughtfully arranged, and tastefully preserved to maintain the charm of the castle while providing modern comfort. The breakfast hampers delivered each morning were a delight. They were full of fresh, delicious local goods that we looked forward to each day. It was the perfect way to start our mornings before wandering the castle grounds. Exploring the castle itself was an adventure we’ll never forget. We discovered a real stone well, tucked away like something out of legend, and even descended into the original dungeon—spooky and fascinating all at once. The top floor history room was filled with captivating information, and we loved that there were two separate entrances leading up to stunning rooftop views of the surrounding hills and River Tweed. And of course, the bar room, with its cozy ambiance and quirky charm, was the perfect place to gather with loved ones—complete with the original castle toilets that had us all grinning. Every nook and cranny of Neidpath tells a story, and it was a joy to explore it all. From the sweeping views of the River Tweed to the kind, attentive staff, every part of our experience was flawless. As an LGBTQ+ couple, we felt genuinely welcomed and celebrated, which made our time there even more meaningful. Neidpath Castle isn’t just a venue; it’s an emotional experience—timeless, soulful, and unforgettable. Sandy was a genuinely incredible host that made even this 600+ year old castle feel like our temporary home. We will never forget every wonderful moment we spent here. Thank you for preserving such a rare and special place. We can’t wait to return and relive the magic all over again.Our wedding weekend at Neidpath Castle was nothing short of magical.

- AAlex & Jody22/07/2025The Best Day of our LivesThe Best Day of our LivesFrom the moment we walked onto the grounds of Neidpath Castle, we knew we were in trouble. After having been provided a guided tour of this historic building, and even trying to visit DIY barn venues and looking at other options...it was too late. Our hearts had been stolen by this venue. From every moment onwards, the team at Neidpath made us feel so supported and looked after. I really have to shout out Sandy. She is a wedding co-ordinator phenomenon. There was NOTHING she did not know, or couldn't find; not a single question she couldn't answer. With Neidpath, it feels like you are investing in history. Not just of your own relationship, but literally walking through the halls and stairwells of royalty long since passed. Believe me when I say you are treated as such the entire time you are there. The bridal suite is nothing short of exquisite, and such an incredible space to get ready with your bridal party. The onsite Barmkin sleeps 6, and is a beautiful night before chill out space or rooms for your nearest and dearest. We had 25 people there all day and it was the perfect size for a more intimate gathering without feeling empty at all. This is an exclusive use, ENTIRE CASTLE for your wedding. If you are considering this venue, I must also insist you consider booking their Master of Ceremonies Richard. You have no idea how full the day becomes once it begins, and it does not stop, and Richard was was such an essential part of our day. He helped the day run seamlessly, spoke with all of the vendors and made sure we didn't see the cogs turning so we could just float effortlessly from one thing to the next. Booking Neidpath was the 1st step of creating the most meaningul, beautiful day of our lives and I can't recommend it enough.From the moment we walked onto the grounds of Neidpath Castle, we knew we were in trouble.

Everyone was so lovely and accommodating to make our big day everything we wanted it to be and more. The venue speaks for itself but the cottage and Queen Mary’s chambers are so beautiful and cosy whilst also being opulent. We have already booked to stay again for our anniversary! We had 50 guests and they all had a great time and loved the quirkiness of the castle. There’s something for everyone. And as for the photos. Just fabulous. We are jealous of anyone else having their big day as we would do it all again in a heartbeat. 💗 Or wedding at Neidpath in February 2025 was absolutely wonderful!
