Broadway, Cotswolds

Often described as one of the most beautiful villages in England, Broadway lies at the foot of the Worcestershire hills and forms the gateway to the northern Cotswolds. Its wide, tree-lined High Street is lined with golden Cotswold stone buildings, charming tearooms, boutique shops, and traditional inns, creating an atmosphere that feels both timeless and welcoming. Broadway has long inspired artists, writers, and travellers with its natural beauty and gentle pace of life.
