Watlington Hill forms a spur on the escarpment of the Chilterns in Oxfordshire. At the top of the hill is a hamlet named Christmas Common, at 794 feet, which is just a little south of the county's highest point in Cowleaze Wood.

The hill is within the parish of Watlington, projecting out of the escarpment towards that village.
