Summary: We had the absolute pleasure of staying at Barns Tower for our friends’ wedding weekend at Neidpath Castle, and it was one of the most unique and charming accommodations we've ever experienced. Nestled in the peaceful countryside just minutes from the castle, the tower felt like something out of a medieval fairytale; with the perfect blend of rustic history and cozy comfort. From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted. The spiral staircase, stone walls, and wood-beamed ceilings made every room feel like a step back in time. And yet, the modern touches; plush bedding, a fully equipped kitchen, and a beautiful bathroom. This made the stay so relaxing and comfortable. We especially loved gathering in the open-plan living space for coffee in the mornings, with the soft light pouring in and views of the surrounding hills. Barns Tower was not only a beautiful home base for exploring the area, but also a special part of the entire wedding experience. It was such a joy to be just a short drive from Neidpath Castle, and we loved returning to this serene retreat after each magical event. Everything was spotless, thoughtfully prepared, and truly one-of-a-kind. If you're looking for accommodation with soul, history, and charm, Barns Tower is it. It made an unforgettable weekend even more meaningful, and we feel so lucky to have stayed here.
