Electrically the connection under the bonnet is a good place but not one I'd use, there isn't much in the way of circuit protection between it and the battery so you'd have to be very careful about insulation and fuses.
I'd go for the fuse board at the RH side of the dash, just about everything in there is permanently live and I found the other day when looking for a switched live. Use a piggy-back or breakout fuse connector and depending on where you want the socket, you can run a cable through the grommet where the the bonnet release cable goes, maybe to the front grill?
