Hill View Rise
Once a derelict Dutch barn, Hill View Rise has been transformed into a unique, reverse-living holiday hideaway. This spacious converted barn sleeps eight guests in four, large double rooms - two downstairs and two upstairs - with three bathrooms (two ensuite). The upstairs living room and covered balcony, with outside seating, afford breath-taking views down to the Vale of Evesham and across to the Malvern Hills. The Cotswold Way and walks to popular Cotswold pubs are on the doorstep, while Broadway, Chipping Campden and Stratford-upon-Avon are all nearby. The barn has a large garden, easy-access parking for five cars and accepts two well-behaved dogs.
Overview
As you turn into the drive, there’s no doubt that Hill View Rise provides a wow factor, with its impressively high front elevation. This is a modern barn conversion that has retained the original design, with its typical outer metal frame, but has a central wood-clad core to soften and add warmth. The first-floor covered balcony simply invites you up to go and enjoy the view - and you won’t be disappointed.
This reverse-living holiday home has two double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the ground floor, plus a handy utility room. On the first floor is the kitchen-dining room - with access to the covered balcony through French windows - a living room with a woodburning stove, and two spacious ensuite double bedrooms (each can be made up as a super-king size double or twin). All the rooms have floor-to-ceiling windows, making this a light and bright retreat with a lovely view from every room. The bedroom flexibility, space and modern conveniences make this a great base for walkers, an extended family, a wedding group or a friends’ get-together.
To the far side of Hill View Rise is a large lawned garden with fantastic views over the surrounding countryside, offering the chance to see stunning sunsets. Guests are provided with a picnic table and bench set and a charcoal BBQ. The house shares a gravel drive with its sister property - Ledge View - but has its own carport (for two cars) and a total dedicated parking area big enough for five cars.

With its floor-to-ceiling window and French doors out to the balcony, the living room is a beautifully light room with an amazing view over the trees to the distant hills. In the winter, light the wood burning stove and curl up on one of the four-seater sofas while watching a film on the smart TV.

The garden is fenced to the rear, giving it a private, secluded feel, with just the sound of birds, sheep and the wind in the trees to accompany you. The garden is open at the front to the driveway, which is shared with guests in the adjacent holiday home. Guests bringing a dog must keep their pet on a lead at all times when in the garden and should supervise young children when playing outside.

There is a Budgens in Broadway (3.9 miles) and a wonderful deli called Fillet and Bone in Chipping Campden (1.2 miles).

Dover’s Hill is also the location of the Cotswold Olimpick Games - a celebration of early rural sporting events for amateurs. Events include King of the Hill, Championship of the Hill and the crowd favourite, Shin Kicking. The sound of the band and the glow of the flaming torch procession will linger in your mind long after the last shin has been kicked.
Take a day to walk to and from the Ebrington Arms, 5 miles away, which produces its own Yubby beer as well as serving delicious food. Follow the Cotswold Way to Chipping Campden and then take the Heart of England and the Diamond Way to Ebrington.

Some improvements needed
Location was perfect but just a few things that could have made our stay better
1. Heated towel rails
2. Better quality towels and crockery
3. Access to log store
4. Lamps in living room
Apart from the above we did enjoy our stay

Hill View Rise is the perfect place to get together with family or friends. The rooms are really spacious, it was absolutely spotless and it’s in a great location. Highly recommend!
Catherine
Fantastic
Used this as my last night with the boys getting married, followed by all the groomsmen a d their wives staying the night of the wedding. Fully equipped, with stunning views, amazing living space and kitchen. Will be coming back, maybe a family Christmas would be good here.
Stephen Kay
Ideal for groups and families
A modern well equipped house with 2 huge bedrooms and 2 good sized bedrooms.
Good views from the balcony.
Large kitchen very clean and well equipped and a big dining table for 10.
5 minute drive into Chipping Campden.
John Tomlinson
Lovely views
The views from this house are wonderful. We had beautiful weather and I know that makes a difference to your stay but under the canopy sitting outside with the views is wonderful. Chipping Camden is only a short drive with lovely eating places and good shops. Would love to come back.
Gill Gibbard
Fabulous house for our Christmas girls getaways
Hill view rise is a fabulous house in a beautiful setting great for exploring the cotswolds. The house is really spacious and really well equipped. We had a perfect weekend away. Thank you
Rachel Fage
A lovely stay in the Cotswolds with friends - but more attention to detail needed!
Hillview Rise is beautifully situated in the heart of the Cotswolds, fabulously central for friends to travel from across the country for a weekend together. Ample parking and plenty of space. The conversion is great, allowing four spacious bedrooms, plenty of bathroom facilities, a large kitchen diner and a roomy television room with a log burner. The upside down living was fine for us but infirm people might struggle with the stairs to the living accommodation.
The property would have been perfect other than a few things which let it down. The beds and bedding were clean and comfortable but towels very small and poorly laundered - they smelt damp and unpleasant. We needed to reconfigure the modular sofa (which was also very low and unsupportive) and found playing cards and snacks underneath and between which we had to clean up ourselves. All the windows and mirrors were very dirty, and the glass shelves in the bathrooms were narrow and bowing from the wall, you couldn’t keep a wash bag in the bathroom. The kitchen was poorly appointed for us, no way could you self cater for six let alone eight people, two small and lidless saucepans and a dirty frying pan. Plenty of crockery and cutlery but we had to wash it by hand before use - no rinse aid or salt in the dishwasher and none in the property. Tea and coffee left for us but the sugar had evidently had a load of wet/dirty spoons in it and looked unpleasant. No scissors, and watching my pal fry eggs using a wooden spoon was hilarious.
Customer service was good, we were grateful for a late departure time and queries were answered very promptly by text message but I can’t give Hillview Rise the five stars as a prestige property it could so easily win! As a group we wouldn’t return.

A special placef
We had a wonderful time at Hill View Rise. The property was in an amazing location and the barn itself is stunning.
It had everything we needed and was perfect for our dog and two toddlers to run around and play.
The way the property was designed and equipped was perfect, I would only suggest some fans in the hotter months as it does get very warm.
Overall we would definitely love to stay here again.
Zara Karimi
Could have been much cleaner
The house could have been much cleaner; dog hairs all on the balcony, fingerprints on the windows and thick with dust all over the house.
The towels were incredibly small and no more could be provided for our young children.
For the money, it was really disappointing.
Joseph Barsby
Lovely location
Spent Christmas here with the family and it was perfect. Rural location with beautiful views and many walks nearby. Great spot for exploring the Cotswolds.
Joanne Chambers
Amazing time!
Fantastic time we had at the property!
Would 1000% stay here again!
The property was clean and spacious we would recommend to everyone and stay here again ourselves
Joshua Pask
Very nice stay
Enjoyed it very much
Sofa set in lounge was the only uncomfortable thing in the whole weekend.
All family agreed.
Didn’t spoil our stay at all but just wanted owners to know
Elaine Morgan
Hill View Rise -a great experience
We stayed at hill view rise in West Subedge in August and had a great experience. The property did not disappoint and provided us with all essential utilities. Parking space was extensive and the property felt very secure.
There were plenty of board games available for the evenings and the sunsets sitting out on the balcony were fantastic. The short walk to Dovers hill was an enjoyable experience and extending this to Chipping Campden was something we did on several days.
I was pleased the service provided by the housekeeping team. After leaving, we realised we had left a camera charger at the property which was quickly located by housekeeping who are arranging posting back to us. Overall a great experience and I can highly recommend the property.
David Williams
A good location but.....
Lovely location - could be a little gem with some tlc. Very sparsely furnished and needs someone with a bit of imagination to walk through and smarten up. First thing to do is paint and clean carpets. A little pride in what you are offering to renters wouldn't go amiss and It shouldn't be a case of anything will do. Would recommend if this was done.
michael bartlett
Great long weekend stay with family
Hill View Rise is a fab house in a great location for exploring the North Cotswolds.
We stayed as a family (6 adults, 2 children and a dog!) and had lots of space. The garden is great for the children and it's very close to Chipping Campden (20 min walk) and also Dover's Hill (10 min). The four bedrooms are a good size, the kitchen is well equipped and the log burner was a big hit!
If you are going with children who go to bed earlier, I'd recommend not putting them in the bedroom under the kitchen as it's very noisy - we had to move ours on the first night as they kept getting woken up by the chairs scraping the floor etc. You can hear everything but it's great that the living areas get the best views so that's something we were happy to deal with!
If I'm being critical, the place could do with a lick of paint as it's a little tired in some areas, and the carpets are quite stained in the downstairs bedroom, but on the whole it is a great house and I would certainly recommend to others. We'll be back!
SOPHIE BIRCH
