Duns Castle, Duns, Berwickshire is a historic house in Scotland, the oldest part of which, the massive Norman Keep or Pele Tower, dates from 1320. The earlier house was transformed into a Gothic castle, 1818-22, by architect James Gillespie Graham. It is owned by the Hay family. Alexander Hay of Duns (retired accountant) and his wife currently reside there.

There is a publicly accessible park and two man made lakes, the Hen Poo and the smaller Mill Dam [1].

It is often used for weddings and other functions.
