We have stayed here 3 years running and consider it our favourite site. Facilities are good and the whole site clean and tidy. Wardens are very welcoming and helpful. Off site dog walking a bit restricted, especially at the moment with a local footpath temporarily closed. Broadway is a perfect Cotswold village with everything on it. The preserved railway, now open, is a great asset. Like Moreton just down the road the drinking water makes a lousy cup of tea. A peculiarity of the Cotswold “hard” water.
BROADWAY - AN EXCELLENT SITE
Conveniently sited for Broadway and other Cotswold villages. Steam railway sited nearby with connection to Cheltenham. Wardens very pleasant and helpful.
Shame about all the impactive road humps. While appreciating that speed should be 5mph or less if you approach humps at that speed damage to car suspension could become an issue !!!
Being associated with the garage trade I know car springs are stressed when coming off the humps and broken car springs are very common today. Remove the humps - save damage to Club members vehicles !
I noted that drivers still exceeded the limit - 15 to 20 mph in between the humps.
Enforce the required speed limit by other means - On arrival remind guests of the limit and why it is important, when wardens out and about stop speeding vehicles and remind drivers to keep slow.
Most non Club sites have speed limit of 10mph - a more sensible and achievable speed which is still very safe and which drivers may relate more readily with.

We will return!
We stayed last week for 3 nights. The wardens are friendly and helpful. Facilities are spotless. The pitch was clean, level and tranquil. The motorhome service point is easy to use. Broadway is one of our favourite Club sites and just got better, now that the Station is back in operation with steam trains for a nostalgic experience. The visiting pizza van on Monday evening was a big bonus.
The Crown & Trumpet off the High Street deserves a strong recommendation too. A traditional pub with lots of character without being pretentious. It has some of the best pub food we have ever eaten, at very reasonable prices. There is a good selection of real ales, and the friendly owner makes a point of coming round and greeting his customers. Broadway has plenty of interesting shops and a useful Budgens supermarket.

Steam train heaven
The site is located off a busy road which is presently the only way to walk into Broadway itself (about half a mile).
Facilities were clean and well maintained and the wardens friendly and helpful.
There are two dog walks; one is very small and is not really a walk, but the second, newer one is better.
There is a children’s plaground with a picnic table and chairs. It would benefit from a couple more tables just outside the playground for families with dogs to keep an eye on their children.
For steam engine enthusiasts, the steam railway goes past the site and the station is just across the road. The site is well located for travelling around The Cotswolds.
Excellent Location
We have used this site on many occasions over the years and the excellent location means that it continues to be very popular and consequently, very busy. Usual high standard of facilities with friendly wardens who keep the site well maintained. Large level pitches and a second dog walk has been created - owners just need to work out how to pick up!! Ongoing works to create a carpark at the newly opened Broadway Heritage Railway Station means that there is some noise during the day and the permissive path linking Station Road to the back lane to Childswickham is temporarily closed to facilitate these works (for information). As others have pointed out, the 'speed humps' around the site are very severe. We witnessed one caravan which was leaving the site, become detached from the tow vehicle - the breakaway cable did not engage the handbrake and the caravan rolled back down the hill before coming to a halt on a vacant pitch - thankfully no-one was behind the outfit and only pride was injured but it does serve as a timely reminder to make sure you are properly attached before moving off!!
Beautiful Broadway
We spent 9 nights on this site, having visited the year before we came back to see the steam trains. The site is immaculately keep by the wardens, the toilets and showers very clean as are the dishwashing and laundry. The site is on two levels, you can see the trains pass from the top level and lower level has the childrens play area. There is a pizza van on a Monday and fish and chips on two other days both of which are good. Broadway village is about a 15min walk from the site and is well worth a visit, places to eat, ice cream, little shops and large play park and access to walk to Broadway Tower. We found so much to do in the area, with other Cotswold villages to visit and Evesham town, which has events in their park. The wardens are very nice and helpful and always took time to ask the children about their day and wave. We love this site and think it is one of the best we have visited. We did have a couple of issues with dogs running off leads through our awning and another messing on the grass behind the pitches but this is not a reflection on the site but the owners of the dogs! We will definately come back to this site we enjoyed our stay very much - mainly to do with the hard work put in by the Wardens. Thanks You.
Beutifull site
What a beautiful site the wardens keep it spotless great pitches and no overhanging trees and lovely friendly wardens, pizza van was great and chip van yes was expensive but really good we also tried the chip shop in Broadway which is a reasturant as well that was great to and a bit cheaper but the van is more handy been on site, wow it was take away heaven for us where not usually as bad but hey on holiday, just one winge about the site and it’s the speed bumps they really are severe particularly the one when your leaving when you’ve just turned the corner then speed bump and slope straight after so can’t really get speed up for slope and by speed I mean 5 mile a hour which with a caravan on the back can be a it awkward but this is the Co pilot talking 😳 I do realise there probably does need to be speed bumps because a few people do go to fast but these are the worst we’ve come across on site hope to return to this beautiful site next year.
Fantastic and friendly site in great location.
Stayed here for two nights on way to Dorset. Fab pitch with view of trains . Very helpful and friendly wardens - made us feel very welcome after our long drive. Had great day out on steam train - station is across the road. Village is lovely and lots of great pubs. Toilets and showers are very clean and we were next to a block which was in a converted old building.
I would recommend this site to anyone-it really has so much to offer all ages and families.
Fun in the sun at Broadway.
We have just returned home after a wonderful stay at Broadway, the facilities were spotless on each visit, including a baby/toddler bathroom. The information was full of useful stuff. The site was on two levels, the top overlooking the newly extended steam train line, whose station can be walked to directly opposite the campsite. We took advantage of the fish and chip mobile van visit (nice food, expensive), also the pizza oven one evening was delicious. A big thank you to the four team members, who made our welcome, stay and departure lovely. They all answered questions from two kids with ease, and got my youngest a thumbs up each time they passed. You can walk into Broadway village on a flat pavement, there is a very good park hidden down a lane for kids of all ages. Evesham has a Morrison's, Tescos and a good indoor swimming pool.
Lovely site
As former tent campers who have just changed to a Van this year, this was our first time on a Caravan and Motorhome club site. We were very pleased that this was the first site we tried, as it was lovely.
A very warm and helpful welcome, with some recommendations of places to see in the area. The wardens were all very friendly and helpful, and had nice chats whenever we saw them.
The site is beautifully kept, and the bathrooms were spotless.
One of the reasons for picking the site was the fact it is walking distance into the beautiful town of Broadway, which made for a very relaxed time, as you could wander in for something to eat if you didn’t feel like cooking!
The site was very peaceful and friendly, and I loved the few times we were around to see the steam train go by -really good fun! It only runs between late morning to late afternoon though, so it’s not disruptive.
Some wonderful places to see nearby, and the town of Broadway certainly has lots of lovely places to eat and wander around.
We only had one night here, but will definitely be back.
