Hi Neil,
I'm not sure about Windmill Hill, the area is known to me as Burton Dassett Hills Country Park, turn left off the Warwick to Banbury road opposite Kineton Army Barracks. It's a very popular kite flying spot as it gets wind all year round, I was there at the weekend with my Daughter flying hers. You get a few RC Gliders too, it's got strong uplift currents due to the steepness of the hill.
We even saw a solid fuel rocket being launched there the day I took this, can't say I've ever seen that before.
Some more info;

Andy if I'm thinking of the same place, passed that many times on the M40, but never been up there yet. Is it also known as windmill hill?
