Just 500 metres from Lake Windermere, Lexington House is a superb detatched property with contemporary luxuries like chesterfield sofas, a bespoke slate dining table and a breakfast bar.

This superbly restored property is as stunning as its location. Lexington House puts you right next to one of the most iconic lakes of the Lake District, not to mention the bustling village of Bowness-on-Windermere, with its shops and restaurants. Yet behind the front door is a haven of tranquillity, with large chesterfield sofas to relax into and lots of home comforts like a wood-burning stove. The slate top dining table set into the bay window is a particularly unique and attractive feature.

There’s impressive attention to detail throughout, with a parquet floor in the living room, Egyptian cotton linen in the bedrooms and en-suites for every bedroom. The zip and link bed in the super king size bedroom can be converted to twin beds, just ask before your stay.

To the rear of the property is a secluded large patio, with comfortable outdoor furniture and a feature fireplace. It’s the perfect spot to rest those legs after a day spent exploring the lakeside paths and hillside walks of this beautiful part of the country.
