The Old Sweet Shop is in the village of Hook Norton. It’s a three-bedroom cottage, sleeps six. It’s old, so the stairs are narrow and a bit steep. It is rated 4 Star.
It used to be a sweet shop. There’s an inglenook fireplace and beams. There’s a games room with a console for kids. We put up Christmas decorations if you’re staying over that period.
You can walk to two pubs from the cottage. Both do food. The Hook Norton Brewery is here too, you can do tours. There’s a village shop about 500 yards away.
