NEW - Lexington House - 5 Star - Stylish Barn Conversion

Standing proud, in one of the best residential roads in Bowness-On-Windermere, Lexington House is a superb 5 Star Barn Conversion.

Less than 500m from the shores of Lake Windermere and in the most desirable area of Bowness, Lexington House offers guests the best of both worlds. Choose between the peace and tranquillity of the house and it’s grounds or venture into the vibrant village of Bowness, less than 250m away, with its eclectic mix of shops, tourist attractions, bars and restaurants.

The front door opens to reveal a luxurious, boutique, home from home, which welcomes guests with its contemporary and high quality finish that is of the very highest standard with superb attention to detail. Choose from one of three magical bedrooms, each with luxury ensuite facilities. The stylish lounge allows guests to relax on the cosy chesterfield sofas in front of the log burning stove. This social space also enables you to dine with family or friends and make memories at the bespoke slate top dining table, set into the bay window overlooking the beautiful gardens.

The social element continues as you step outside the back door into large courtyard overlooking woodland with outdoor sofas and chairs where, on longer days, it is lovely to relax in front of the feature outdoor fireplace, with drinks and fizz!

DETAILED OVERVIEW:

Set behind private, electric gates, there is a satisfying crunch of the gravel under your wheels as you pull into the drive way of Lexington House. Stepping through the front door way, kick off your boots and hang up your coat as this cool, contemporary house welcomes you. The light and airy lounge, with beautiful parquet floor, cosy log burning stove, sumptuous chesterfield sofas and armchairs is just the place to relax with family and friends and the bespoke slate topped dining table set into the bay window adds a very modern twist.

The cool, calm, kitchen sits right at the heart of the home, with its high quality units, integrated appliances and breakfast bar. The first class inventory is complemented by an electric oven and hob, dishwasher, fridge, freezer and washer/drier.

A choice of three boutique luxury bedrooms leave guest spoilt for choice – all are beautifully furnished with luxurious beds, high quality Egyptian cotton linen, fluffy towls and ensuite facilities to ensure they are the most welcoming retreat at the end of the day. The ground floor has a kingsize bedroom and is complemented by a smart ensuite shower room. The two first floor bedrooms are presented as a kingsize and supeking; one with ensuite shower room and the other with a corner bath. The superking may be presented as either a superking or twin beds (please specify when booking).

Absolutely perfect place to stay
We had an amazing stay at Lexington House celebrating a family birthday. The house is amazing, spacious, immaculately clean and everything you need is there. We really enjoyed our stay, the home is cosy to come back to after long walks and busy days. We were able to make use of the outdoor fire even in March which was a lovely bonus

Great property in great location
We went as a family of six adults in August. The house is very well equipped and everything is done to a really high standard. The location is also very good - you can walk everywhere if you want to and not use the car at all. Really helpful and responsive owners and I'm sure we'll be back.

We have just returned from a weeks stay at this truly amazing property. The property is located on a lovely quiet road which is perfectly placed to access the attractions of Bowness. The property itself is finished to an exceptionally high standard and I can honestly say it is one of the best properties we have ever stayed in.

High spec quality cottage
The cottage is fantastic. Great location and private, but just minutes away from the shops of Bowness…Newly renovated. Beautiful log burner for cold Lake District evenings. The owners are lovely and very accommodating We booked as a family celebration for my dads 70th and he loved it. Highly recommend this property and am looking to book again.

Perfect holiday home
Lexington House was the perfect place to celebrate my upcoming 60th birthday with my family. So comfortable and clean, with everything you could need in a home from home. Fantastic communication with the hosts Phil and Rebecca, very prompt reply to any queries. Great location, five minutes walk down into Bowness and all of the shops. We all loved it, and will hopefully return in the future.

Fabulous stay
We had a fabulous stay at Lexington House during half term. The rooms were spacious and everything was well equipped and clean. The location was perfect for popping into Bowness, as it was only a couple of minutes away and has loads to offer holiday makers. The house itself is located in a quiet street, away from the road traffic. I was particularly impressed with the communication response of the owners when we had various queries - they came back to us within minutes when we had an issue and sorted it out immediately. I would 100% recommend this to others wishing to stay in the area, which has a lot to offer.

Perfect holiday!
We were a family of 6 (3 couples and a small dog) and we stayed in the house for a week for a 60th Birthday Celebration! We couldn’t have picked a more lovely place to celebrate! The house was perfect, very clean, excellent location (few minutes walks to shops/restaurants in Bowness) and excellent outside area (bbq, seating, fire pit, outside lights, secure and dog friendly). The bedrooms were very stylish and all had their own ensuite! Thank you for a lovely stay - we hope to be back again someday!

Myself, husband and family spent the weekend at Lexington house for my husband’s birthday this weekend. Although the weather wasn’t the greatest, we had a wonderful weekend. We like to come and visit the Lakes quite often, but Lexington house made our stay this time round. Can’t fault anything at all. Great communication with Rebecca & Phil who are always on hand to answer any questions we had. The house was beautiful and clean. We will definitely look at coming back in the future.

Fantastic house, great location
Myself and my wife stayed here for 7 nights with our 3 boys (agreed 5, almost 2 and 12 weeks). The house is exactly per the listing. Super clean, everything you need and very well furnished. The outside fire is a great touch too alongside a very clean barbecue, which we would have used if the weather permitted! It’s extremely close to Bowness which is great as you can walk to the down. There is also a small play park nearby which helps pass a bit of time. The hosts were excellent and responsive. We will definitely be back!

The property is amazing and if anything above expectations. All in all a real 5 star accommodation which we would all happily stay at in the future. Also need to highlight the communication with the owners was more than you would expect. Plenty of information on walks, restaurants etc pre arrival and any questions throughout answered timely and in a friendly manner. Nice touch to contact us on day 1 to ask if we got checked in ok and similarly on check out day to say thank you.

Our Happy Place!
Our stay at Lexington House was wonderful! We are regular visitors to the Lakes & especially Bowness, so have stayed in lots of properties & this is one we will definitely return to! Rebecca & Phil sent so much info in advance of our stay & have thought of everything. The house is located in an ideal location to explore the Lakes & Bowness has everything to offer, so you can easily park up for a few days without having to drive anywhere. The house was extremely clean & had lots of amenities & it was also very quiet. We stayed with our 14 year old daughter & my parents & we all had plenty of room & our own space. Thank you again Rebecca & Phil… the ideal hosts!

Excellent house, excellent location, fabulous hosts
We were so impressed by the cleanliness, really tasteful and elegant style of the decor and furnishings. Every room was perfect, the kitchen was great, the beds were like sleeping on clouds and we had free range of the thermostat too which in april is always helpful, plus there is a fire in the lounge for cold nights. The location was absolutely perfect for windemere and its amenities and also beautiful surroundings and amazing walks behind the house away from the crowds. The hosts messaged within an hour of our arrival to make sure we had all we need and that we found everything ok and couldn't have been more helpful. I would recommend this listing for anyone with a family and a pet as it really was ideal in every aspect. We will be returning for sure!

Stylish and generous home in ideal location
The house is thoughtfully decorated with quality furnishings, and is well equipped for cooking and eating indoors and outside. Six adults comfortably occupied the three double rooms and enjoyed the outside furniture and fire pit and the lounge and dining areas. Check in was easy and instructions helpful and easy to follow. Location is very good with a short downhill walk to the town and lakefront jetty. A slightly slower uphill walk back after refreshment! A short bus ride or pleasant half hour stroll from Windermere Station. Plenty of space for cars to park inside the gated access. We would recommend to other groups of travellers.

Our stay at Lexington House was absolutely fantastic from start to finish! Our hosts Rebecca & Phil were amazing in terms of communication, information and they made us feel right at home. The house itself is wonderful with literally everything we needed and it has a real homely and modern feel to it as you will see from the pictures. For those with little ones there is space for a travel cot in all 3 bedrooms and our hosts provided a stair gate which was a lifesaver! The location is excellent and was definitely a big deciding factor for our stay, it was perfect! We stayed in early January and although the weather outside was very bitter, the memories of this little break are anything but! We loved our stay at Lexington House and made lots of very happy family memories to cherish. We hope to stay again soon. Thanks again to Rebecca & Phil
