Sustonica, the first global sustainability standard for holiday lets.
Our aim is to create lasting holiday memories and we intend to do so both responsibly and sustainably.
To deliver on this we've set out a number of environmental and social pledges which help to focus our efforts;
you can read more about them in our Impact Report.
This is why we've partnered with Sustonica, the first global certification for holiday lets,
to support our owners to be more sustainable.
The Sustonica certification focuses on four key areas: energy conservation, water conservation,
waste reduction and promoting inclusiveness. They are on a mission to become the most widely
recognised sustainability standard for holiday rentals and a catalyst to reduce emissions of holiday
lets and influence guests to reduce their own household consumption too.
Properties that display the Sustonica badge have successfully passed the criteria,
which align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the Global Sustainable Tourism Council standards,
and their owner has made a commitment to look after our planet as well as you.
"Stunning property in a brilliant location in the beautiful village of Broadway."
Very well maintained and clean. It was very warm and cosy with lots of room for our party of 8. The garden was lovely and fully enclosed which was great for our dog. It must be lovely to visit in the summer and use the outdoor kitchen which again was stunning. I can’t fault it at all. My only advice would be take a speaker for music as we couldn’t find one in the house.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and the property's location. We hope we can welcome you back in the summer so that you can make use of the garden and the outdoor facilities.

"We had an
amazing family week to celebrate my mother-in-laws 90th birthday, ages ranged from 21-90 years, and it ticked everyones boxes."
The house was in a perfect location for walking into Broadway and exploring the stunning Cotswolds. The property itself was beyond our expectations, although as stylish, charming and comfortable as the pictures suggested. It was very clean and well maintained; we appreciated the welcome gifts too. Only downside would be the duvet covers could have been larger on the beds, and the BBQ gas cylinder was empty. But really that’s all we have to be critical about. Thank you for what will be a very special and memorable stay.
Thank you for your feedback, it sounds like you had a lovely family gathering and to celebrate a 90th Birthday while at the property, what could be more special. We have passed on your comments to the Housekeeper and we hope to welcome you again for another stay soon. Kind regards Manor Cottages.

Perfect location. Quick walk into the village centre for coffee shops, lots of paths for dog walks and an excellent play park.
Going forward, an electric car charging point would be a great addition.
Thank you for your feedback and for your lovely comments. It sounds like both you and your two furry friends enjoyed the stay.

"We have just returned from a wonderful week at Cotsall House celebrating my partners 50th birthday."
The house is just beautiful and the outside space was great. We spent most of our time there. We loved it that much we want to come again next year. Broadway is a beautiful part of the country, you won’t be disappointed. The only issues we had (and they were minor but feel need addressing) was the house was quite dusty with cobwebs here and there. We had someone with allergies and asthma and this did cause her an issue. The knife block needs replacing as the knives are blunt and difficult to work with. The dishwasher is tiny for the amount of people the house holds and lastly. If too many appliances are being used at the same time, the microwave or air fryer would trip the switches, a bit frustrating when trying to feed everyone. But on the whole a great week & can’t wait to stay again xx
Thank you for your feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay for such a momentous occasion. We will pass your comments on to our property manager to look into further. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

"The house suited our mixed age family group."
The garden and outside seating and eating areas meant we were outside for much of the time. The bedrooms were comfortable and stylish. The age of the house means en suite bathrooms aren’t possible - this might be an issue for some groups. The kitchen was well equipped apart from a lack of sharp knives and a bigger dishwasher would be helpful. Richard from the management company was very responsive both before and during our visit. I would like to stay there again and would recommend Cotsall House. As well as being a great house, Broadway and the surround area has something for everyone.

"A great house in a great location."
We were very lucky to be able to enjoy the outside space.
A couple of minor things, that did not spoil our stay. Some of ledges, like around the bath and radiators had quite a bit of fluffy dust on them. The dishwasher was a bit small for a large group. The downstairs loo looked like it had a few brush strokes that were the wrong colour. It looked like someone had realised and just stopped. However, we have recommended the property to some friends and would stay again. A lovely house.

We loved the outdoor dining and cooking area and the privacy of the garden. We appreciated the proximity to the village and amazing walks, restaurants and pubs meaning we did not have to use the car for the entire weekend. Thank you also for the welcome basket of goodies.
A couple of suggestions - I did consider that some cleaning products left at the house would be useful and also a couple more dishwasher tablets and toilet rolls. Things you don't want to have to go out and buy when away for a weekend. However this is not a complaint, intended to be helpful and did not detract from our wonderful weekend.

The property
Cotsall House is an idyllic Cotswold stone property, located in the scenic village of Broadway, with five stunning bedrooms.
The property dates back to the 17th century and has been renovated to an exquisite standard, inviting guests in for a wonderful stay.
A gated driveway provides exclusive privacy and off-road parking for up to four cars, so you can unload your luggage right in through the front door, which opens into a bright and stylish entrance hall.
To your left you will find the elegantly styled and warm, inviting sitting room that has welcoming plush furnishings for you to sink into after a long day, whilst playing fun board games with your loved ones as the woodburning stove provides gentle heat throughout the whole room.
Turning right from the entrance hall is the snug room, which provides the perfect space for you to get some peace and quiet and get lost into the pages of a compelling novel, whilst the woodburning stove keeps you toasty and snug.
Through the long hallway, passing the handy cloakroom with a basin, heated towel rail and WC, you will come to the stunning, open-plan kitchen/diner that is flooded with natural light and overlooks the peaceful garden, this room is a true delight and is perfect for rustling up an evening meal and gathering around the dining table to pop open a bottle of bubbly and toast with your dear ones.
When the children become sleepy, the triple bunk room is conveniently located on the ground-floor, offering a space for them to rest their eyes whilst the adults continue with the evening.
Take the evening outside through the rear lobby where your coats and boots are kept, into the immaculately maintained south-facing garden which is professionally landscaped and boasts a large lawn, raised flower beds, leafy shrubs and trees, with a spacious patio area with a large corner sofa and table, looking out to a paved pathway which leads up to the impressive outdoor kitchen at the rear where an open fire takes centre stage, surrounded by a stylish oak structure with seating and amenities such as a fridge and gas barbecue; the perfect space for entertaining.
When the night draws to a close, head up the attractive wooden staircase to enjoy a long soak amongst the bubbles in the bath, before making your way up three further stairs where you have a choice of four wonderful bedrooms; the master and the second bedroom both beautifully decorated, contain inviting king-size beds, with ample storage space, and a connecting Jack and Jill shower room with a large walk-in rain shower, the other two bedrooms contain double beds, one with a four-poster bed, and have ample storage space and have been elegantly designed.
Once you’ve got some well-earned rest, walk over to Hunters Tea room for a wonderful breakfast, before taking a leisurely walk around Broadway to discover an array of individual shops and restaurants, such as Cheltenham House Antiques, Blandford Books and Hamiltons Chocs & Sweets, where you’ll surely not leave empty handed!
Chipping Campden can be easily accessed by taking a scenic walk along the Cotswold Way walking trail and alighting at the War Memorial in Chipping Campden to enjoy a lovely walk around the 17th century market square before having a well-earned heart-warming meal at The Bakers Arms.
Heading slightly further North will bring you to the wonderful market town of Evesham, where you can visit the Almonry Museum and gift shop, and afterwards take a walk over to The Hampton Ferry which is a pedestrian cable ferry linking Evesham and the district of Hampton across the River Avon in the English county of Worcestershire.
Stratford-upon-Avon can be accessed in just over 30 minutes by car, which is the birthplace of William Shakespeare where there is an array of attractions for all the family to enjoy including The Creaky Cauldron, Magic Alley, Tudor World and the beautiful Bancroft Gardens, perfect for a day out with the kids!
Cotsall House has everything you need for a wonderful stay in Broadway.

The world-renowned Lygon Arms has been popular for centuries, and now spa facilities can be enjoyed at pre-arranged times. Broadway serves as a great base for exploring the Cotswolds and surrounds with Shakespeare’s town of Stratford-upon-Avon, Cheltenham Spa and the historic town of Worcester within easy reach. With an abundance of National Trust properties, museums, beautiful walks and cycle trails, this really is a great place for a relaxing holiday, all year round.
