Broadway is a large, picturesque village in the district of Wychavon in Worcestershire, England, often described as the "jewel of the Cotswolds". Its wide high street is lined with honey‑coloured Cotswold stone buildings, boutiques, galleries, antique shops and tea rooms, giving it a quintessential rural‑English charm that draws day‑trippers and tourists year‑round.

The village sits beneath Broadway Tower, a prominent folly on Broadway Hill with panoramic views across the Vale of Evesham to the Malvern Hills and beyond on clear days. Historically a coaching stop that later attracted an artists' community, Broadway now balances tourism and local agriculture in its economy and is popular with walkers, equestrian visitors and those seeking second homes or a quieter village lifestyle.
