One of our favourite sites
We have been to Broadway site a few times now and I can honestly say it’s one of my favourite sites on the network. All the wardens on this site were really friendly and approachable and it was nice to be greeted with a smile when we arrived which isn’t always the case at a. Lot of sites.
It’s a short stroll into the village of Broadway where you will find some nice friendly pubs if drinking is your thing. The Swan and Crown and Trumpet are nice for food. We ate at the swan on this occasion and the food was very good so we wouldn’t hesitate to go in there again.
Russell’s chippy is also worth a visit as the fish n chips are very good, they aren’t the cheapest but I guess it’s a captured audience so to speak.
The only complaint really and this applies to a lot of the CMH sites is the toilet set up. This site has the cleaning of the toilet blocks performed in an afternoon which I have to say works very well and eliminates the rush to get showered in the morning before 10am etc so that would certainly be nice to see on more sites. The problem we had was the set up for toilet use in the morning. Due to Covid there is a band system in place like most sites but in the men’s two of the main toilets were closed due to social distancing which meant quite a queue for everyone to do what comes naturally. This site has two unisex toilets which were open when the main blocks were being cleaned in the afternoon. However when people really needed them the most (in the morning) to my amazement they were locked which meant for me and a lot of others guests having to hold ourselves while in the queue knowing that for some strange reason two toilets were closed which isn’t really very customer focused is it!!. I have no idea if it’s the wardens or the club that makes the decision regarding what time toilets are cleaned and which ones should be open or closed but on this occasion it felt like they were for some reason personally trying to make it difficult for the guests. I do think the club sometimes needs to remember they are supposed to be operating on behalf of the members and certainly during these strange times when toilets are at a minimum open up any others that they possibly could. Oh well off to Hawes this weekend where ‘apparently’ the toilets are closed from 9:45-12:00 with no others available talk about making it difficult for people.
