Join us as we take a one-way journey aboard the GWSR Steam Train from Cheltenham to Broadway. You will then enjoy some free time to explore the beautiful Cotswold village of Broadway before we continue our journey with a visit to The Valley in Evesham.
GWSR:
The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway is a volunteer operated heritage railway in Gloucestershire and Worcestershire.. It uses part of the route of the former Great Western Railway's main line from Birmingham to Cheltenham which used to run via Stratford-upon-Avon.
It now operates steam and heritage diesel trains between Cheltenham Racecourse and Broadway through some of the most spectacular scenery in the Cotswolds. The line commands wonderful views of the nearby sleepy hamlets and villages, with outstanding outlooks across to the Malvern Hills and beyond.
Broadway:
The beautiful and historic Cotswold village of Broadway is a memorable place to visit and often referred to as the 'Jewel of the Cotswolds'. The pretty High Street is lined with horse chestnut trees and includes a mixture of period houses and picturesque honey coloured Cotswold stone cottages which have lured visitors for centuries. Enjoy great eateries; independent Shops and Galleries.
