Burnbrae is a peaceful rural, haven situated 3 miles from the pretty town of Kelso in the Scottish Borders.
Mungo s Well is a spacious, peaceful rural cottage, an ideal destination for a mini-break or longer, for singles, couples or friends who can request in advance that the 6 ft double bed be arranged as twin beds. We are lucky to have super-fast Wi-Fi via FTTP available throughout the site.
COVID-19
Coronavirus~ Burnbrae Holidays is a wonderful place to self-isolate. We will change duvets, pillows, mattress protectors (as well as bed linen and towels) between guests. We will carry out extra cleaning as per the very detailed protocol from the Scottish Government. I have completed the recommended cleaning/ disinfection training as recommended. We will be closed for a night between guests, to let the cottage ’air’ and to allow me time to carry out the extra cleaning. This has already been blocked out. The laundry room with the washing machine and tumble drier, books and games will be closed to guests. Please let me know if you would like to borrow a specific game for the duration of your stay. Please ask me for more clarification. If you prefer, we can leave the cottage unlocked for your arrival. There are many local walks and cycle routes where you are unlikely to meet anyone due to the lack of people. Or sit and relax while admiring the wonderful rural views and amazing birds in your cottage garden.
