Ashton under Hill sits in the district of Wychavon in Worcestershire, tucked against the western slopes of Bredon Hill and on the edge of the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Its elevated position affords broad views across the Vale of Evesham and makes it a handy base for walkers and cyclists exploring the surrounding ridges and lanes.
