Broadwell is a small village and civil parish in the Cotswold district of Gloucestershire, England, set amid the honey‑coloured limestone hills and dry‑stone walls that define the Cotswolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Narrow lanes thread between traditional cottages, farms and occasional manor houses, giving a distinctly rural, low‑traffic feel.
Historically agricultural with roots stretching back to the medieval period, Broadwell retains a parish church, several listed buildings and a landscape shaped by pasture and arable farming; in recent decades some farm buildings have been converted for housing or holiday use and a number of residents commute to nearby market towns. Community life centres on village events and the quieter rhythms of country living, while visitors are drawn to the classic Cotswold architecture and walking countryside.
