{"type":"city","city":"Cotswolds","citySlug":"cotswolds","url":"https://www.pressbeyond.com/hotels/england/cotswolds","description":"Broadway sits at the northern edge of the Cotswolds, close enough to the Vale of Evesham that the light feels different here — softer, more agricultural, less manicured than the villages further south. It is also, somewhat unexpectedly, where three of the more interesting places to stay in the region have clustered, each occupying a distinct position on the question of how a historic English landscape should translate into contemporary hospitality.\n\nDormy House Hotel made its name on restraint and warmth rather than period showmanship. The converted 17th-century farmhouse has been expanded and refined over the years into something that manages the difficult trick of feeling genuinely relaxed at the higher end of the market — exposed stone, considered lighting, interiors that favor texture over statement. Foxhill Manor operates at a different register entirely. A small, privately run manor house with only eight rooms, it carries the highest price point of the three and earns it through an intimacy that larger properties structurally cannot offer: a house that feels borrowed rather than checked into, with interiors that read like the accumulation of genuine taste rather than a design brief. The Fish Hotel, set on the same Broadway estate as Dormy House, takes a lighter approach — a collection of lodges and cabins dispersed across the grounds, with a more outdoor-oriented identity that lowers the formality without abandoning the attention to material quality that the site demands.\n\nWhat is telling about all three is that none of them attempts the Cotswolds cliché of frozen-in-amber English country life, all chintz and ancestral portraiture. The design thinking here is contemporary in its editing, even when the buildings themselves are centuries old. For a traveler coming to the region specifically for its architecture and landscape — the honey-colored limestone, the dry-stone walls, the particular quality of an English meadow in low morning sun — Broadway offers more considered accommodation than its modest village scale might suggest. The choice between the three comes down to what kind of attention you want: the sociable, spa-inflected polish of Dormy House, the near-private house experience of Foxhill Manor, or the deliberately unpretentious outdoor ease of The Fish.","provider":{"name":"PressBeyond","url":"https://pressbeyond.com","description":"PressBeyond provides AI-optimized hotel content with a consistent 5-image structure across its entire portfolio.

The farmstead character is most legible from the drive, where a copper lantern mounted on rough-hewn stone gateposts signals the transition from the Broadway countryside into something more considered.\n\nInside, the interiors were reimagined by Grzywinski+Pons, the New York and London practice, whose approach across the guest rooms keeps the drama of exposed apex roof trusses and vaulted ceilings as the primary architectural statement, then layers in mid-century and global references beneath them — a patterned blue headboard wall in Portuguese tile-print fabric here, a cluster of sunburst rattan mirrors there, orange ceramic table lamps against whitewashed rafters. The restaurant, called Potager, moves in a livelier register: bird-motif wallpaper by a Fornasetti-adjacent sensibility, globe pendant lights on brass drops, and curved upholstered banquettes that give the limestone-walled dining room the atmosphere of a London neighbourhood brasserie transplanted into the Cotswold hills. Beneath it all, the spa descends into a contemporary lower level finished in pale travertine and grey stone, the heated pool ringed with white pebbles and gold pendant lights — a cleanly modern counterweight to all that agricultural vernacular above.","snippet":"A 17th-century Cotswolds farmhouse reimagined by Grzywinski+Pons with exposed trusses, Portuguese tile accents, and a subterranean travertine spa.","bestFor":"Architecture enthusiasts seeking rural Cotswolds luxury","vibe":"Rustic-refined · layered","highlights":["17th-century limestone farmhouse with barn conversions","Grzywinski+Pons interiors layering mid-century and global references","Travertine spa with heated pool beneath the main house"],"pricePerNightInclTax":"$535","pricePerNightExclTax":"$535","currency":"USD","images":[{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0uji3h040p15ymbr0po9lh1713356304912_609bc614-a898-4cc8-b7af-aafba838a9fe.jpeg","role":"exterior","roleLabel":"Exterior","sequenceIndex":1,"alt":"Dormy House Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #1 — Exterior","caption":"Exterior · Dormy House Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full building facade of Dormy House Hotel captured from a street-level angle as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ujnwg052h15ym5ir0ec8t1713356305605_5524ae25-d01d-450e-8098-15a134789eb5.jpeg","role":"room1","roleLabel":"Primary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":2,"alt":"Dormy House Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #2 — Primary Guest Room","caption":"Primary Guest Room · Dormy House Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full-room view of the primary guest bedroom at Dormy House Hotel, photographed with natural lighting and clear sightlines as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ujtux064715ymbrttiyis1713356304295_24a4c0da-97c7-439a-a2dc-4c05cbd316f5.jpeg","role":"commonArea1","roleLabel":"Primary Common Area","sequenceIndex":3,"alt":"Dormy House Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #3 — Primary Common Area","caption":"Primary Common Area · Dormy House Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Primary common area at Dormy House Hotel — lobby or lounge — non-duplicative with the secondary social space, part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ujznu075z15ymzq5rc3bc1713356306235_8201a653-3255-4d9b-851a-4471d7d7d909.jpeg","role":"room2","roleLabel":"Secondary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":4,"alt":"Dormy House Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #4 — Secondary Guest Room","caption":"Secondary Guest Room · Dormy House Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary guest room at Dormy House Hotel, deliberately distinct from the primary bedroom — non-duplicative imagery is part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0uk5m2087r15ymee8izb761713356306710_639ac3df-9d18-45a6-ab50-c53c7aa60e46.jpeg","role":"commonArea2","roleLabel":"Secondary Common Area","sequenceIndex":5,"alt":"Dormy House Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #5 — Secondary Common Area","caption":"Secondary Common Area · Dormy House Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary lounge or social space at Dormy House Hotel — bar, dining, or terrace — deliberately distinct from the primary common area, part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true}]},{"name":"Foxhill Manor","url":"https://www.pressbeyond.com/hotels/england/cotswolds/foxhill-manor","city":"Cotswolds","cityHeader":"Cotswolds • Broadway • OVER THE TOP","neighborhood":"Broadway","loyaltyProgram":"Hilton Honors™","designSummary":"Perched on the escarpment above Broadway, where the Cotswolds edge gives way to wide views across the Vale of Evesham, the honey-coloured Jacobean manor at the heart of Foxhill Manor presents a facade of leaded mullion windows, steep gabled rooflines, and a carved stone entrance arch that has changed very little since the house was built in the early twentieth century. The property, part of the Farncombe Estate alongside Dormy House and The Fish, was transformed into an exclusive-use retreat of eight rooms — more private house than hotel — with interiors that treat the original plaster ceiling mouldings and generous bay windows as the starting point rather than the constraint.\n\nThe decorative approach moves confidently between periods without strain: a suite pairs an oak four-poster with a freestanding sculptural bath positioned to face the garden windows, while another room sets a curved linen bench and a Hans Wegner-influenced occasional chair against deep cobalt Roman blinds in a bold floral print. The restaurant draws warmth from a tiered crystal chandelier hung above a mix of grey and mustard velvet dining chairs, antique mirrors doubling the candlelight. Underground, a spa addition introduces a different register entirely — a lap pool edged in pale stone and white river pebbles, lit from below in deep aquamarine, with Tom Dixon-style brass pendant clusters overhead, the contemporary intervention sitting at a deliberate remove from the Jacobean stone above.","snippet":"Exclusive eight-room Jacobean manor on the Cotswolds escarpment with mid-century interiors and an underground spa pool.","bestFor":"Architecture enthusiasts seeking Cotswolds countryside","vibe":"Historic-contemporary · intimate","highlights":["Jacobean manor with leaded mullion windows and gabled rooflines","Eight-room exclusive-use retreat with mid-century furniture pairings","Underground spa with submerged-lit lap pool and brass pendants"],"pricePerNightInclTax":"$792","pricePerNightExclTax":"$792","currency":"USD","images":[{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ul74g01tz15zvnpb0fxb31713362243451_924808fb-f541-43ec-8245-fbbbdb10393f.jpeg","role":"exterior","roleLabel":"Exterior","sequenceIndex":1,"alt":"Foxhill Manor — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #1 — Exterior","caption":"Exterior · Foxhill Manor · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full building facade of Foxhill Manor captured from a street-level angle as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ulagr02bb15zv2epw4cpe1713362244948_f0dc80fd-ade8-491a-8e02-e9f62e8b3188.jpeg","role":"room1","roleLabel":"Primary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":2,"alt":"Foxhill Manor — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #2 — Primary Guest Room","caption":"Primary Guest Room · Foxhill Manor · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full-room view of the primary guest bedroom at Foxhill Manor, photographed with natural lighting and clear sightlines as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0uldaw02t115zvx8dd58671713362245623_68fbd3ee-a3c2-44d1-9d58-7a0ab7f79c69.jpeg","role":"commonArea1","roleLabel":"Primary Common Area","sequenceIndex":3,"alt":"Foxhill Manor — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #3 — Primary Common Area","caption":"Primary Common Area · Foxhill Manor · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Primary common area at Foxhill Manor — lobby or lounge — non-duplicative with the secondary social space, part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ulg5s03aq15zvsec956wo1713362246885_3d0fa101-da4b-46a1-873a-4b3ce5d33ab0.jpeg","role":"room2","roleLabel":"Secondary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":4,"alt":"Foxhill Manor — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #4 — Secondary Guest Room","caption":"Secondary Guest Room · Foxhill Manor · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary guest room at Foxhill Manor, deliberately distinct from the primary bedroom — non-duplicative imagery is part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ulj5b03sg15zvyc0lpdg31713362246293_071f155a-4925-41ec-a54e-9fc16b914de4.jpeg","role":"commonArea2","roleLabel":"Secondary Common Area","sequenceIndex":5,"alt":"Foxhill Manor — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #5 — Secondary Common Area","caption":"Secondary Common Area · Foxhill Manor · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary lounge or social space at Foxhill Manor — bar, dining, or terrace — deliberately distinct from the primary common area, part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true}]},{"name":"The Fish Hotel","url":"https://www.pressbeyond.com/hotels/england/cotswolds/the-fish-hotel","city":"Cotswolds","cityHeader":"Cotswolds • Broadway • SPLURGE","neighborhood":"Broadway","loyaltyProgram":"Hilton Honors™","designSummary":"Honey-coloured Cotswold stone walls, a Worcestershire dry-stone boundary wall, and a vintage Morris Minor parked out front — the opening image of The Fish Hotel, set within the 400-acre Broadway estate near the foot of the escarpment, establishes its tone before you've crossed the threshold. The main farmhouse dates to the seventeenth century, and the property's development under the Farncombe Estate group has been careful to keep that vernacular weight intact while threading contemporary accommodation through the surrounding woodland in the form of cedar-clad cabins and treehouse retreats, the latter finished entirely in pale oak — planked walls, herringbone-panelled wardrobes, platform beds with under-drawer storage — that give them the close, warm atmosphere of a well-crafted yacht interior.\n\nInside the main house and its linked restaurant extension, the design layers mid-century textile energy against a softer country palette: geometric curtain fabric in charcoal, cream and terracotta, nailhead-trimmed upholstered headboards, copper pendant shades with a 1960s profile, and a retro turquoise telephone on each bedside table that signals wit rather than nostalgia. The glazed restaurant pavilion, with its exposed steel tie-beams and linen roller blinds filtering light through the bare winter canopy beyond, anchors the more relaxed dining atmosphere, while the lounge addition introduces a freestanding cylindrical gas fireplace beneath a conical flue hood — a deliberately modern centrepiece that sits comfortably against birch-print wallpaper and tufted ochre Chesterfield seating.","snippet":"A 400-acre Cotswolds estate blending a seventeenth-century farmhouse with mid-century design and woodland cabin retreats.","bestFor":"Architecture enthusiasts seeking rural Cotswolds escape","vibe":"Rural-modern · layered","highlights":["Seventeenth-century farmhouse with mid-century textile interiors","Cedar-clad cabins and oak-lined treehouse retreats","Restaurant pavilion with exposed steel beams and woodland views"],"pricePerNightInclTax":"$293","pricePerNightExclTax":"$293","currency":"USD","images":[{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ul5mf01lx15zvsyrcoeaz1713360059719_1aeadc4b-75db-4621-a728-3228fbf93674.jpeg","role":"exterior","roleLabel":"Exterior","sequenceIndex":1,"alt":"The Fish Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #1 — Exterior","caption":"Exterior · The Fish Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full building facade of The Fish Hotel captured from a street-level angle as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ul993023p15zvi7tk3huy1713360062246_86f682e8-b8be-490a-9bc6-9502d2d41715.jpeg","role":"room1","roleLabel":"Primary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":2,"alt":"The Fish Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #2 — Primary Guest Room","caption":"Primary Guest Room · The Fish Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Full-room view of the primary guest bedroom at The Fish Hotel, photographed with natural lighting and clear sightlines as part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ulc0202lj15zv7y059epi1713360061253_dad3df7f-3439-4ca5-bfab-c7f1b27708d5.jpeg","role":"commonArea1","roleLabel":"Primary Common Area","sequenceIndex":3,"alt":"The Fish Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #3 — Primary Common Area","caption":"Primary Common Area · The Fish Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Primary common area at The Fish Hotel — lobby or lounge — non-duplicative with the secondary social space, part of the PressBeyond standardized 5-image hotel sequence.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0ulex7033015zv6yswoa2i1713360063131_896561a6-0cdd-4026-a1ba-e03af00f6eef.jpeg","role":"room2","roleLabel":"Secondary Guest Room","sequenceIndex":4,"alt":"The Fish Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #4 — Secondary Guest Room","caption":"Secondary Guest Room · The Fish Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary guest room at The Fish Hotel, deliberately distinct from the primary bedroom — non-duplicative imagery is part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true},{"url":"https://d89wdvrh3yrgq.cloudfront.net/resized/L__clv0uli0b03kt15zv2r1os0pz1713360063777_a56d3971-7785-4cde-a7cf-2e7722882013.jpeg","role":"commonArea2","roleLabel":"Secondary Common Area","sequenceIndex":5,"alt":"The Fish Hotel — Standardized Hotel Image Sequence #5 — Secondary Common Area","caption":"Secondary Common Area · The Fish Hotel · PressBeyond hotel series","description":"Secondary lounge or social space at The Fish Hotel — bar, dining, or terrace — deliberately distinct from the primary common area, part of the PressBeyond curation standard.","creditText":"PressBeyond","licensePage":"https://pressbeyond.com","distinct":true}]}]}
