“Great service, easy to book, great response to any issues over the festives.”

Very quick. Lovely cottage, village was quiet but a good base for visiting the best parts of the Cotswalds. Loved it

Ms Wilson December 2021

“Lovely cottage in the heart of the village.”

Loved the wood burner. The Xmas tree and lights were a lovely touch. Used the sun inn and the gate hangs high both nice pubs.

- Ms Wilson, December 2021

Thank you very much for your feedback on your stay at Hooky Cottage. We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the cottage and surroundings. Property Owner
Miss Alexander November 2021

“We might not have looked hard enough but instructions for the shower and oven would have been good.”

- Miss Alexander, November 2021

Thank you for your feedback. These manuals should have been available in the cottage but we will certainly look into this and ensure they are there for future guests. Property Owner
Mrs Nightingale August 2021

“Had the best stay in Hook Norton.”

This is the second time we have stayed in the cottage and will definitely book with you again.

- Mrs Nightingale, August 2021

We're so pleased that you had another wonderful stay at Hooky Cottage and we'd love to welcome you back again in the future! Property Owner
Mr Wright June 2021

“Hook Norton is a lovely village to stay in.”

The area is ideal for getting to the Cotswolds and the big attractions like Blenheim Palace. The cottage is very well stocked and extremely clean. Parking is tight but there is a hard standing area for you to park on and as we met a neighbour he was very pleased that we were using it rather than parking on the road, as very few spaces there and the locals use those spaces. I would suggest a meal in the Sun Inn and a trip to Hook Norton brewery.

- Mr Wright, June 2021

Thank you for taking the time to feedback on your stay at Hooky Cottage. Your information on parking will prove helpful for future guests! Property Owner
Mr Irani June 2021

“My wife and I had a pleasant break.”

We found the cottage a little tiny, but that's expected. We couldn't fault it apart from no telephone reception in cottage. And would have been nice if tSky or Virgin available on tv.

- Mr Irani, June 2021
Ms Whitehouse October 2020

“This cottage was a true hidden gem!”

Would recommend to couples and young families alike for either a romantic getaway or a family break. My daughter was enthralled by everything; from the selection of games under the sofa, the books in her bedroom, to the friendly cats popping into the garden to say hello. Amazing hospitality at the Sun Inn and the most friendly of neighboursto chat to also. Book up without hesitation, we yearn to return here! Everything is on hand either in walking distance or a short drive away for a wonderful short break.

- Ms Whitehouse, October 2020
Mrs Nightingale August 2020

“We had a wonderful stay at Hooky cottage.”

It was clean and comfortable and we felt so rested when we left. Hook Norton is beautiful and we loved staying there. Will definitely be rebooking next year. Thank you.

- Mrs Nightingale, August 2020

We look forward to welcoming you back next year! Property Owner
Mr Dagul August 2020

“This place was absolutely perfect for 3 people.”

The property was stunning and the town was incredibly quaint. My only qualm was that the garden is not the one in the pictures and was actually a shared garden but it wasn't an issue it was still a cute garden and the neighbours were very friendly.

- Mr Dagul, August 2020
Mrs Berry February 2019

“The cottage was situated in a lovely location, the village and surrounding area are beautiful.”

The brewery tour is worth a visit, so are the local pubs for food and there are a number of walks around the cottage. The cottage was lovely and cosy and we enjoyed our stay. The cottage cleanliness in our opinion could have been better and beds are not particularly comfy but it still didn't deter us from having a lovely holiday.

- Mrs Berry, February 2019
Mrs. B.

“The description of the cottage fitting in with the area we wanted to explore.”

The attractive village was a bonus as were all of the walks around the area.

“We loved our stay at Hooky Cottage, it was beautifully kept and very homely.”

Hook Norton is a fabulous village and the location of the cottage was perfect for exploring the village & surrounding area.

- Claire Field,
Mr Walmsley

“As we are a family with a younger child we where looking for a small cottage that would suit us with a toddler, the inclusion of a cot and child gate in a good location for attractions for him made this a good choice.”

- Mr Walmsley,
Mrs J.

“The cottage was very well positioned and was a very nice well looked after place.”

The kitchen was extremely well stocked and the wood burner was fab.

- Mrs J.,
Lucy

“We had a lovely stay at Hooky cottage for the bank holiday weekend.”

The cottage had everything we needed and it was exactly as per the description. The village was beautiful, very quiet but the local village shop and few pubs catered for all our needs. We did plenty of walking and visited the Hooky brewery (and drunk a lot of the local Hooky ale!). Would highly recommend for a relaxed weekend away. Lucy, May 2016

The property

Hooky Cottage is a gorgeous thatched cottage situated close to the centre of this lovely village, itself located in the northern part of the Cotswolds.

The cottage has a long history and has a wealth of period features that give it real character.

Naturally the thatch is very appealing (and rare!), but the beams, wood burning stove and Cotswold stone walls give the cottage a real homely, cosy feel that sets it apart from many others.

The cottage is ideal for two, but can easily accommodate an extra person as there is a second bedroom.

The owners have undertaken some recent updates and these give it a welcoming feel, mixing 'period' and 'modern' in a tasteful way.

There is a small patio area to the rear along with a separate south facing garden area. Please note the property has a narrow, steep staircase (there is a fixed handrail) , may not be suitable for anyone with limited mobility.

With some great pubs moments away and proximity to superb walks on your doorstep, this is an ideal 'rural retreat' for a couple or couple with a young child.

Enjoy!
