The Crook is an original Cotswold cottage in the heart of Stow on the Wold. The house blends modern comforts with hints of its historic past in every room.
The front door leads into a welcoming entrance hall with original flagstone floors and walls clad with memories from Sheep Street when Stow on the Wold was famous throughout the ages as being the biggest sheep trading market in England.
Living Room
The timeless log burner is the warming focal point of the sitting room, straddled either side by cupboards stocked with games for peaceful evenings by the fire. A Smart TV and comfy seating for all the family with extra blankets from The Cotswold Company to ensure extra cosiness.
Opposite the sitting room is a downstairs toilet and sink.
Open plan kitchen/dining room
The kitchen is fully equipped for easy meals and has a dining table laid up and ready to go, though with so many excellent restaurants on the doorstep you may not need it. Little luxuries include our signature Diddly Squat welcome hamper, wine fridge and Nespresso coffee machine. Double doors from the kitchen lead to.......
Private patio garden
A secluded courtyard with garden furniture centred around a quirky built in outdoor fireplace. We have a bbq for those Summer days when alfresco dining is mandatory.

Super king bedroom at the rear over looking the courtyard. Double room with ensuite bathroom, walk in shower wrapped around the original beams and wardrobe storage.
Family bathroom with a shower over the bath combination.
Second Floor

The Crook reviews:
"This cottage was pure quality! Absolutely OUTSTANDING! The best air BnB we have ever stayed at! We stayed with our grown up sons, fiancée & daughter in law plus dogs. Cottage on main road in a central location with a multitude of quality, independent shops, pubs, eateries on the doorstep. We stayed for 3 nights and ate out once for a Sunday lunch at the Bell. The kitchen had everything you could wish for cooking curry, pasta & brunch and its open plan with a large dining table for eating on and playing board games together was so perfect! The cottage had lots of charm and period features with visible beams and stone flooring in the kitchen for example. Bedrooms well planned out with unique decoration and individuality. Comfortable beds, crisp bedding and soft towels. We all slept well even though we were on main road. There is on street parking outside, we had 3 cars in our party and we all managed to park outside of cottage for duration of our stay. Will definitely love to stay again."

"The Crook was perfect for our group of six. Great location. It had everything we needed, and the goodies (chocolates, wine) were much appreciated. Lovely large kitchen area, and comfortable lounge. For six adults we found we had plenty of space."
