From Ilmington set off along Back Street and attempted to take a shortcut via Warwickshire's muddiest footpath. Abandoned this and returned to road, up Campden Hill/Campden Pitch/Nebsworth Lane, then turn right at junction for summit. 
 
The summmit itself is in a ploughed field with no view, but from the lane there are good views of the Malvern Hills and my next top, Worcestershire Beacon, in the distance. | hillbagger91 | 15/11/2023 |

We've started to do county tops to break long car journeys. Today was the turn of Oxfordshire and Warwickshire. We parked by the gate to the mast. Firstly walked east along the footpath to level with supposed high point and clocked 261m on my Garmin watch. We then walked the other side of the road to find the trig . OSM shows it north of the masts in the east field into which there was a tractor track. However we could not get near the trig for head high rapeseed plants. We could see it peeking above the plants.we clocked 259m here. Walking back to the path road junction there is a stone and a fine stone seat on which were sitting a tourist couple from the Netherlands. This seat is also at 261m according to my watch but suspect it may be in Gloucestershire. I wonder where the old boundary ran? Anyway good views, not as impressive as Oxfordshire but ticked off. | RowanP | 29/06/2023 |
Ascended up easy track from Hidcote NT car park. | Vulcan | 24/06/2023 |
From NT Hidcote Car Park. No crops in summit field. Low wire fence to step over. | Jephcote83 | 06/06/2023 |

Fine mini range with spacious views. Shame you can drive up it. | Wycombe Wanderer | 10/04/2023 |
Second Cotswolds summit of the day and 8th county top on a 10 county top (3 day) trip with 26 school students and 3 staff (including me). Weather grey and light drizzle but visibility OK. I know you can drive to the top of this one, but we parked at the National Trust car park at Hidcote Manor to the west, and then climbed up easily along the track. Warwickshire high point depends on whether you take modern or historic boundaries. The modern top is the actual summit (261m) which isn't very accessible in a field. Historic top is on the path at grid point 1877 4259. It is centimetres lower! The trig point (259m) near the disused (?) transmitters actually feels more like the summit! Returned same way. | jamessteel100 | 05/04/2023 |

From minor road junction. Along road to masts, trig first before crossing road to summit in field. Must pay more attention having visited Hidcote on two previous occasions. | N.Morters | 21/09/2022 |

From Chipping Campden along Heart Of England Way to Hidcote Manor, up to masts and Trig. Returned along track past Nebsworth, Foxcote and Ebrington. | dgresty | 16/09/2021 |
From Hidcote National Trust CP. 3m circular route. One wire fence to step over into a maize field, fortunately the crop has failed for the most part with the summit Gr clear white daisys and Poppy’s growing in its place. | Jephcote83 | 16/08/2021 |
By the time we left Newbold at 10:15 it was already 25C. By the time we’d cycled to the summit via Lark Stoke it must have been even hotter. Stunnning, cloudless skies. Long views over towards the Malvern Hills and the Black Mountains on the Welsh border. | pclyndes | 17/07/2021 |

A drive more or less tothe top - We park on the minor road close to the masts. Hill summit bagged we followed bridleway (old highway) East to two more masts on Nebsworth. Finally turning back near Dunstall buildings. A hot sunny afternoon. Also bag the trig pillar before we leave. | briandavies | 12/06/2021 |

Bagged this following family visit to Hidcote National Trust property. By-way to the top leads up from NT carpark. Very handy. Appropriately enough the highest point in Warwickshire is found to lie lost in a flat ploughed field. Bagged the trig too, which as others say, offers the better view. Nice stroll back down past fields of spring lambs. Lovely day. | Pete West | 15/04/2021 |

Very pleasant stomp from Ilmington, via Admington Lane and Hidcote Bartrim then back over Nebsworth. Varied and mostly quiet, although the stomp up to the high point from Hidcote Bartrim seemed quite popular. Fantastic views; could clearly see the Malverns and Birmingham tower blocks. | jkl | 30/08/2020 |
Field full of sweet corn! Followed rows of plants to high point using GPS. Visited trig point too. Farmer came up in his car just as I got back out to the roadside. Phew! Solo. | Dangerous Dave | 23/08/2020 |
Last one of the day from Jonny Muir's book. Rain and poor light was a damp end to a long day. Still another from the book 'ticked off'. | Buck | 15/08/2020 |
Adequate parking on grass verge next to radio station. 
Visited trig pillar first as guaranteed access. 
Then crossed road to visit county hp. 
Crop of sweetcorn in field so walked east along bridleway level with summit and spot height returned along bridle way and entered field following verge east level with spot height on other side of thick hedge. No access through crops. 
Walked North along adjacent boundary getting as close to spot height as possible without damaging crop. | mntainman | 22/07/2020 |
