Tailor-made for two, this charming apartment is perfect for a romantic getaway in the Cotswolds. While the stairs up to the apartment are steep, it’s worth the effort to stay in this home-away-from-home, where you can sink into the bathtub or simply sit by the window to admire the garden views. This apartment is set in the grounds of the owner’s home, so there’s no outdoor space here. That said, it’s a simple stroll into Hook Norton village where you’ll find an abundance of local walks, a brewery, a shop, butchers, and three village pubs.
