This large village sits between Evesham and Moreton-in-Marsh in far southeast Worcestershire, with the Cotswold escarpment rising dramatically behind it.
The broad main street is genuinely impressive – lined with red chestnut trees and flanked by honey-coloured stone buildings, many dating back to the 16th century. The village green forms the real heart of things, and wandering around feels genuine rather than contrived.
Broadway has a strong connection to the Arts and Crafts movement, which has shaped its character significantly. You'll notice this artistic heritage in the galleries, studios, and independent shops scattered throughout. The village punches well above its weight historically because of this cultural legacy.
Beyond the village, you're surrounded by outstanding natural scenery. Fish Hill offers proper walking opportunities with excellent views across the countryside, and the area's conservation status means the landscape has been carefully protected. This makes it ideal if you want to combine village exploration with time outdoors.
You'll find good independent restaurants and pubs here, along with plenty of accommodation options that make Broadway work well as a base for exploring the wider Cotswolds. It's accessible enough for a morning or afternoon visit if you're passing through, but there's genuinely enough to engage you for a full day or longer if you want to settle in properly.
