LET PROPERTIES
Lothian Estates rents
out over a hundred properties for housing, ranging from one
bedroom cottages to large country houses. Many are located in
idyllic settings, with open outlooks over farmland, mature
deciduous woods or to the River Teviot.
The majority of the
properties are stone-built in a traditional style. Most tenants work locally
while some are estate pensioners or current estate workers.
All residential lets
are handled by the Estate Office - vacancies are usually
advertised locally and
here
on this site.
The 30 farms on
the estate are all let - you can read more about them
on the farming page.
Some redundant farm
buildings have been sold over the years for conversion to
residential accommodation while smaller sheds are often let as
stores.
Within Harestanes,
near Monteviot, several converted stables and garages have become
craft
workshops.
