Dawyck House

Dawyck House is a historic house at Dawyck, in the parish of Drumelzier in the former Peeblesshire, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland.

Dawyck Castle was built about the thirteenth century and belonged to the Veitch family until 1691 when it was purchased by Sir James Nasmyth.

The current house has been protected as a Category B listed building since 23 February 1971[4] and the grounds were added to the Inventory of Gardens and Designed Landscapes in Scotland in 1987.

[5] Dawyck (together with Stobo Castle) were the first Scottish sites to introduce the non-native species of horse chestnut in 1650.
