Favorite Local Pub
Name: The Swan
Interesting Facts: A traditional village pub set in the beautiful Vale of Evesham between Evesham and Stow-on-the-Wold. The Swan sits on the High Street of the pretty village of Broadway, a short drive from the Cotswold towns of Moreton-in-Marsh, Chipping Campden and half an hour from Regency Cheltenham.

Unusual or interesting place in the area
Tower Country Park:
Among the attractions of Broadway Tower Country Park, on the outskirts of town, is its tower, an 18th-century "folly" built by the sixth earl of Coventry and later used by William Morris as a retreat. Exhibits describe the tower's past and the local Arts and Crafts movement, and the view from the top takes in three counties. (The tower normally stays open longer than the advertised times in fine weather.) Peaceful countryside surrounds you on the nature trails and picnic grounds.
Bath:
"I really believe I shall always be talking of Bath... Oh! who can ever be tired of Bath," enthuses Catherine Morland in Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, and today plenty of people agree with these sentiments. In Bath, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, you are surrounded by magnificent 18th-century architecture, a lasting reminder of the vanished world described by Austen. In the 19th century the city lost its fashionable luster and slid into a refined gentility that is still palpable

Favorite Local Restaurant
Name: Crown and Trumpet
Type of Restaurant: Casual
Type of Food: Local
Interesting Facts: Situated just behind the village green of Broadway this traditional 17th Century Inn, is built in Cotwolds stone. Serving lunch and dinners all through the week using locally produced ingredients to make seasonally cooked home made dishes. Sunday roasts with Cotswold Beef and Tewkesbury Mustard. We have also four exclusively brewed seasonal beers. In the winter there is an open fire in the bar with our own mulled wine and hot toddies and in the summer you can have a Pimm's on our patio. Monthly Jazz and Blues evenings as well as musical entertainment every Saturday evening. We hope to welcome you to the Cotswolds.

One thing visitors should not miss
Berkeley Castle:
Berkeley Castle, in the sleepy village of Berkeley (pronounced bark-ley), is perfectly preserved, down to its medieval turrets, and full of family treasures. It witnessed the murder of King Edward II in 1327—the cell in which it occurred can still be seen. Edward was deposed by his French consort, Queen Isabella, and her paramour, the earl of Mortimer. They then connived at his imprisonment and subsequent death. Roger De Berkeley, a Norman knight, began work on the castle in 1153, and it has remained in the family ever since. Magnificent furniture, tapestries, and pictures fill the state apartments, but even the ancient buttery and kitchen are interesting. The surrounding meadows, now the setting for pleasant Elizabethan gardens that include a tropical Butterfly House, were once flooded to make a formidable moat. Special events take place year-round.
