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 20 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 9.9/10 - 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 is one of the prettiest bases in the north Cotswolds for a break with dogs, and Lower Mill 2 makes a strong case for being the way to do it - a 4.5-star cottage apartment with a stream running along the back garden, and a paw rating of 4.6 out of 5 from dog-stay feedback so far. That comes from a small pool of pet reviews, but what there is could hardly be warmer: families describe the property as perfect for them and their dogs, plural, which suggests multi-dog households are welcomed in practice.
The back garden with its stream is the memorable feature - endlessly interesting for water-loving dogs, though one to supervise with puppies or determined swimmers. The self-contained format gives you your own entrance, a proper kitchen for feeding routines and no hotel corridors to negotiate, and guests rate the facilities and location as excellent across the board - its overall the booking listing score sits at 9.9 from twenty reviews, which is about as good as scores get.
Broadway itself is a short stroll: a broad, green-verged high street with dog-tolerant pubs and cafes, and some of the Cotswolds' best walking on the doorstep - the Cotswold Way passes through the village, and the climb to Broadway Tower makes a satisfying half-day loop with the dog.
Worth knowing before booking: the booking listing publishes no formal pet policy or fee for this property, so confirm charges, the number of dogs welcome and any rules directly with the host. And while the stream is a highlight, it does mean the garden boundary deserves a check before any off-lead time.
Best suited to dog owners - including two-dog households - who want a polished, quiet base with water and hills to explore, right on the Cotswold Way.
