It was created as a country park in 1971 and is run by Warwickshire County Council.
The hills rise to 211 m (692 ft) above sea level[1] and are situated half a mile east of the M40 motorway.
Of interest at the site is a 12th-century parish church at the old village of Burton Dassett.
Impressive views across the surrounding countryside can be seen from the hills; towns and other features that are viewable are described by a toposcope.
The park and the church were used as a location in the Tom Selleck 1990 film Three Men and a Little Lady.
