1 / 8The Sun Inn Hook Norton
Banbury, Oxfordshire
Yes. Dogs can stay overnight.
A British inn at Hook Norton on the edge of the Cotswolds, with seven bedrooms and a dog friendly table to ask for when you book.
Hook Norton sits on the edge of the Cotswolds, and The Sun Inn is its family friendly British inn, brimming with history and the sort of place where a round of drinks happens in front of the fireplace. Chipping Norton, Stow-on-the-Wold and Moreton-in-Marsh are all close by, which is partly why this dog friendly inn calls itself a destination for dog walkers and says four-legged friends are very welcome.
The inn has seven bedrooms to let. The inn does not say which rooms are the dog rooms, how many dogs are allowed, or whether one can be left there alone; get all three confirmed when you book. What is on the record is the mix the inn goes for: a contemporary dining experience set against a traditional pub atmosphere.
Parts of the inn are dog friendly, so when you book a table for dinner, let the inn know you need a dog friendly table. The kitchen does proper, hearty pub food, from slow-cooked pies to classic roasts, and brunch runs on Friday, Saturday and Sunday mornings. Behind the bar it is local cask ales, the Hook Norton range and continental beers, with cocktails and a classic Bloody Mary at Sunday lunchtime.
You can relax by the log fire, settle into the snug or sit among the flowers in the outdoor spaces. Banbury, Chipping Norton, Stow-on-the-Wold and Moreton-in-Marsh are all within reach for the day, and for the dog there is Rollright Stones and Little Rollright Circular, 4.1 miles away on Wildpack's map.
