Hook is situated in the district of Hart, in north-east Hampshire about six miles from Basingstoke and is surrounded by countryside. It is a large village offering excellent commuter links with London Waterloo accessible in about an hour via the mainline rail station and easy access to Junction 5 of the M3 motorway. Hook has expanded over the past 50 years to become a large village; the centre has shopping facilities including a Tesco supermarket, a mini-Waitrose, doctors' surgery, dentists, a Post Office, takeaways, public houses, and a church. A Sainsbury's store opened in May 2023.
There is both an infant and junior school located in the centre of the village, both are rated outstanding by Ofsted. Hook is also within the catchment area for Robert Mays Senior School in Odiham. Finally, there are two refurbished community centres hosting a wide range of activities for all age groups. Nearby villages such as Newnham, Odiham, Rotherwick and Hartley Wintney and towns like Farnham and Basingstoke, plus the nearby Wellington Country Park make for a great combination of urban and countryside living. Several local parks include Bassett's Mead Country Park, Hartletts Park, Wellworth Park and the King George V Playing Fields.
