We look forward to welcoming you to Mine Hill House, our family home in the Cotswold countryside, where we enjoy outstanding views over three counties – Gloucestershire, Oxfordshire and Warwickshire.
The house dates from 1733, and has a wealth of period details including exposed beams, flagstone floors and big open fireplaces. It is situated in a commanding position at the top of the hill, in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, yet is only a short drive from the pretty market towns of Banbury, Stow-on-the-Wold, Chipping Norton, Chipping Campden, Stratford-upon-Avon and Shipston-on-Stour.
Stunning views over unspoilt countryside • Bed and Breakfast in peaceful location • Double/twin room with ensuite bathroom
Family suite • Children welcome • Lovely walks from the back door • Dinner available by prior arrangement

The Guest Bedroom
Situated on the first floor, the guest bedroom may be arranged as either a double or a twin room. There are beautiful views over the garden and the open countryside beyond from the bedroom windows.
Beyond the en-suite bathroom is an additional small twin room, with a sloping ceiling and a very special access – over a beam and through the cupboard doors! This room is very popular with children as it is like a secret den. Grown-ups might enjoy the adventure too if they do not mind negotiating the access. The bathroom is shared between the two rooms.

On Arrival
We offer our guests a cup of tea in our cosy sitting room, where a log fire is lit during the cooler months.
Breakfast is served in the dining room, where works of art by Hester’s mother Jo Trotter, a renowned artist and sculptor, are on display. A full English breakfast is cooked on the Aga, or a lighter Continental alternative is available if preferred.

Prices
Double/twin room – £120 per night
Family suite (double room & small twin room, shared bathroom) – £180 per night
3 course Dinner (48 hours notice required) – £35 per person
Please note that we accept payment by cash or personal cheque only.

Dinner
Some of our guests prefer a half-board arrangement, whereby they enjoy a three course evening meal in our pretty dining room.

Please note that we generally require 48 hours prior notice for this.

Hester is an accomplished and enthusiastic cook who runs a small catering business, and she will prepare a delicious meal using local ingredients and home-grown vegetables in season. Vegetarians and special diets are happily catered for.

Mine Hill House is unlicensed so we are unable to offer wine with dinner. However, guests may bring their own wine to the table.
