Homegrown Delights

The Lygon Arms Broadway, Worcestershire This renowned Cotswolds hotel is one of Britain's most historic inns welcoming guests from nobility to modern celebrities and the occasional dissenter. For instance, during the English Civil War both Charles I and Oliver Cromwell separately enjoyed its rich hospitality! Nestled in the heart of the charming village of Broadway it is a beautiful bolthole for couples and families who want to explore the Cotswolds in style. Not long refurbished, Lygon Arms masterfully balances the old with the new across 86 rooms and suites. Perched high above the village of Broadway lies Farncombe – a glorious sprawl of forest and field, riddled with rambling trails and cycle routes, and home to hotels Dormy House (below left), Foxhill Manor (main and below centre) and The Fish (with its treehouses - below right) as well as a collection of luxury self-let houses, named the Hillside Hangouts. Farncombe Estate Near Broadway, Worcestershire 14 Whilst our map highlights County Gloucestershire’s ‘Cotswolds’ district, the true extent of the Cotswolds actually sweeps southwards from lower Worcestershire to the Royal City of Bath and even creeps eastwards into Oxfordshire. Our recommendations reflect this spread starting with hotels in and around Broadway and finishing in the deep south with the glorious estate of Lucknam Park..
