Further to the external boundary is several large paddock fields which are currently let to the local riding school providing another steady income.

Running parallel to the side of these paddocks is the Eden Water and in one of the fields, Mungos Well, a woodland has been planted by the current owners to enhance wildlife habitats and assist wood harvesting for the stoves.

Burnbrae benefits from numerous ancillary outbuildings, including a boat store, a bike store, wood store, car port, boiler house, barn with workshop and byre shed.

With relevant planning consents these have the potential to be developed into additional accommodation, an extension from the main Burnbrae Mill or Kelso's very first Bunk House.

They do currently offer excellent storage for the cottages and Mill with ample off street parking for all accommodation being a further bonus.
