Broadway (England)

[[file:Broadway_Banner.jpg|1280px|Halal Explorer to Broadway}} Broadway House - a charming Broadway house

Broadway is a well-known and much visited Cotswolds region village in the English county of Worcestershire. Often referred to as the "Jewel of the Cotswolds" and the "Show Village of England" because of its archetypal rural beauty and the 'Broad Way' leads from the foot of the Western Cotwolds escarpement along a wide grass-fringed street lined with ancient honey-coloured limestone buildings, many dating back to the 16th century. Broadway makes an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding countryside, including the rest of the Cotswolds region, for which the village forms the northern gateway.

Despite Broadway's status as a major tourist destination, it is considered more up-market than the nearby Bourton-on-the-Water and rarely seems excessively crowded. If you take a car, though, you will need to be either patient or selective about your vehicle park on busy days, particularly summer weekends and bank holidays.

Broadway (England) Halal Travel Guide

Broadway became a busy staging post on the route from Worcester (England) | Worcester to London as coaches had to harness extra horses for the long pull up nearby Fish Hill. As many as 40 travellers' inns once existed within the village to service those passing through, a few of which are still in use today.

Broadway has been home to a large number of prominent English artists and composers, including Sir Edward Elgar, John Singer Sargent, J.M. Barrie, Vaughan Williams and Arts and Crafts artist and writer William Morris.

Like many Cotswolds|Cotswold villages, Broadway became prosperous from the wool trade and much of its charm comes from its large number of luxurious old limestone houses.

Travel to Broadway (England)

By coach

Castleways Coaches run bus service 606 from Cheltenham and service 559 from Evesham.

Private chartered coach trips are run by a lot of companies from most major city's, including London, Birmingham and other nearby tourist hotspots such as Stratford-upon-Avon. You are likely to find yourself sharing the coach with either the elderly or Japanese tourists.

How to travel to Broadway (England) by car

There are several well-signposted vehicle parks around the village. On busy days (notably bank holidays and summer weekends) the one where you are most likely to find a space and the largest vehicle park, is on Leamington Road, near the village library. This has a somewhat unusual entrance; you drive under a bridge formed by two adjoining apartment buildings. The nearest postcode (for SatNav) is WR12 7DZ.

You can hitch-hike from the B4632 or A44 roads. Locals are very friendly, if a bit posh and generally will give lifts to stranded people.

Travel by train to Broadway (England)

The nearest mainline train stations are Evesham and Honeybourne GPS 52.101,-1.835, both on the Cotswold line with direct services to Worcester (England) | Worcester, Oxford and London at least every two hours from roughly 6AM until 10PM. Honeybourne is a minor unmanned stop and you should not expect to get a taxi from there, but it makes a good place to start cycling or hiking from, with relatively few steep hills on the way. Moreton-in-Marsh has a mainline train station on the same Cotswold line, but has no direct bus service to Broadway and is at the other extreme of the very steep Cotswolds|Cotswold Ridge range of hills - fine to cycle from, but requiring Herculean muscles to cycle to.

Take the Gloucestershire Warwickshire Steam Railway ] from Cheltenham Racecourse to Broadway. This private steam railway does not connect to the mainline railway network, but you can use the Stagecoach Racecourse Park and Ride bus D to get between Cheltenham Racecourse and Cheltenham train station. The steam railway and Park and Ride services are at opposite ends of this very large racecourse, so allow 20 minutes to walk between the two.

Get Around

GPS 52.0354|-1.8622

Broadway is a relatively compact village, flat and easy to walk around. None of the vehicle parks are more than a ten minutes walk into the centre and the buses stop right along High Street.

The main shops, hotels, cafes are mostly easily found off High Street, around the village green and war memorial. However when walking from there, along High Street, it is a common mistake to think that the shops end at The Horse & Hound pub. It is well worth walking five minutes further north along High Street to find a few more quaint little shops around the Leamington Road junction.

By road it is easiest to drive up the A44 Fish Hill and then down the B4081 Conduit Hill. By bike, a flatter route is feasible north through the B4632 Willersey and Weston-Sub-Edge and east along the B4035 Aston-Sub-Edge. A shorter pedestrian route is over the Cotswold Way long-distance footpath, but this can be very steep in sections and should not be attempted in cold or stormy weather.
