Where is The Lygon Arms?
Located in ‘the jewel of the Cotswolds’, Broadway village is home to the legendary coaching inn that is The Lygon Arms.
Around 2.5 hours from central London, and one hour from Birmingham Airport, Broadway is situated in the north of the Cotswolds region, close to Shakespeare’s birthplace, Stratford upon Avon and many of the Father Brown filming locations.
Broadway is blessed with classically beautiful and quaint shops and dwellings, many of which are the same age as the 14th-century hotel. King Charles I met here with his supporters, as did Oliver Cromwell, and the village was also later visited by stars of the silver screen Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor, Sophia Loren, Vivien Leigh and Cary Grant, all of whom stayed at The Lygon Arms.
If you’re looking for a long history, or to walk in the footsteps of the historically important, the rich and the famous, Broadway has it all to offer!
