How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 1 pet-mention guest review sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 15 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 8.2/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: July 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.
Pet-friendly summary
Broadway House is a large seven-bedroom property near Upper Swell, on the edge of the Cotswolds close to Stow-on-the-Wold, and it is built for big group getaways where a dog can come along too. The headline draw for four-legged guests is the space: a fantastic open field at the back gives you room to throw a ball, walk the dog and let everyone stretch their legs without leaving the grounds.
Dogs are welcome, and the setting genuinely suits them. The surrounding Cotswold lanes and countryside make for easy walks straight from the door, and the sheer size of the house and garden means a dog is never under everyone's feet indoors. A guest who brought a dog highlighted the back field as a real plus for walking and general play, alongside the games facilities that kept the rest of the party busy.
A couple of honest caveats help set expectations. The house sits within a small complex of cottages rather than standing alone, so you are closer to other guests - and potentially their dogs - than a private retreat would suggest. Reviewers also describe the interior as large and practical rather than luxurious; it is very much a lively group-and-family house rather than a quiet couples' bolt-hole. For a sociable dog that enjoys company and open space, that is no bad thing.
Broadway House suits large families or friend groups travelling with a steady, sociable dog who will make the most of the open field and countryside walks. The pet feedback so far is limited in volume, so treat the paw rating as an early indication and confirm the current pet terms with the host when you book.
